    Congratulations on your preg!
    If you had a healthy diet previous to becoming pregnant then you don't need to change anything. Lots of fruit & veg, lean mean, fish and pulses.

    You don't need to eat the extra 500 calories per day until your 3rd trimester and this should be made up of healthy extras. I swapped reduced fat dairy products for full fat versions and made sure I always had banana's in my fruit bowl.

    Sorry if thats too obvious and you were after something more specific.

    Good luck with your preg x
