Dairy Products

It goes without saying that an extra amount of calcium and protein is required for meeting the growing needs of the baby. Casein and whey are the two essential kinds of protein found in most dairy products that are helpful for fetal development. Moreover, dairy products are the prime source of calcium and regular consumption can provide you with high amounts of magnesium, various B-vitamins, zinc, and phosphorus.

Sweet Potatoes
