Vegetarians

Is anyone else veggie? I have just been reading through the bumph that the midwife gave me, and it said that the midwife should advise you whether to take supplements. I did tell her I was veggie, but she didn't say anything about it. I would prefer not to take supplements, but apart from iron, what else should I be making sure I get enough of?

Any nice veggie recipes that are good for pregnant women?

I have been a veggie for nearly 20 years and with my 1st pregnancy and this one my midwife never told me too take any supplements.In fact my midwife commented on how high my iron levels were when she looked at my blood results!! I must be eating something right!

I wouldn't worry about it too much, just eat healthy etc. My friend is pg and veggie, nearing the end and has what can only be described as a dream pg, so she must be doing something right too x
