Your nutritional needs change significantly as your pregnancy progresses. We work with you trimester by trimester, adjusting your plan as your body and your baby's needs evolve.
Trimester-by-Trimester Guidance
- First trimester: Focus on managing nausea and food aversions while ensuring adequate folate, iron, and other essential nutrients for early development.
- Second trimester: Calorie and protein needs increase. We focus on iron, calcium, and DHA-rich foods to support your baby's growth, along with managing energy levels.
- Third trimester: Continued monitoring of weight gain, blood sugar, and nutrient intake, with preparation for delivery and, where needed, early guidance on breastfeeding nutrition.
Special Situations We Support
- Gestational diabetes — blood-sugar-friendly meal planning
- Multiple pregnancies (twins/triplets) — higher calorie and nutrient requirements
- Pre-existing conditions such as thyroid disorders, anaemia, or high blood pressure
- Postpartum recovery and breastfeeding nutrition
What to Expect
- Initial consultation: A full review of your medical history, current trimester, and any complications.
- Ongoing check-ins: Typically every 3–4 weeks, adjusted as you move between trimesters.
- Postpartum follow-up: Guidance on recovery nutrition and, if applicable, breastfeeding support.
Every pregnancy is different, so your plan is reviewed and adjusted at each stage rather than fixed from day one.
