You should eat healthy food during pregnancy. The main nutrients you need for the growth of your baby is protein. The other are carbohydrate, fat, vitamins and minerals in right proportion.
drink enough water.
protein rich food: milk, egg and fish
Carbohydrate rich food: Rice and potato
Fat rich food: chicken and ghee
Vitamins and minerals are rich in fruits and vegetables.
Drinking water is very important during this time, Take care.

Unable to eat during pregnancy?
Maliika
I am 8 weeks pregnant and i am unable to eat... Normally, when this is the case, I take tres orix forte to boost up my appetite but i don't want to take any medicine because of the baby.
I feel completely drained out and I don't know what to do... Sometimes I feel so down that I just want to die.
Please help me
Thanks a lot for your advice and support. It is my first pregnancy and I don't know how a pregnancy is meant to be. I don't feel nauseous all the time but still I can't eat. Right now, I have a slice of bread and cheese and I will take a 'vitaminated' drink...
Answer
I will assume that you are unable to eat because you are nauseated and think you will vomit if you eat anything (either that or you KNOW you will vomit if you eat anything). In some cases, the nausea actually subsides if you eat (NOT eating makes the nausea worse). As other posters have mentioned, eating small snacks all throughout the day so that your stomach is never empty is one of the best ways to reduce nausea/morning sickness. If you are unable to eat due to morning sickness, here is some advice:
"Affected pregnant women should be instructed to eat frequent, small meals and to avoid smells and food textures that cause nausea. Solid foods should be bland tasting, high in carbohydrates, and low in fat. Salty foods (e.g., salted crackers, potato chips) usually can be tolerated early in the morning, and sour and tart liquids (e.g., lemonade) often are tolerated better than water. Family members should be informed that pregnant women with nausea and vomiting of pregnancy may need to alter mealtimes and other home routines." There is additional advice in the source I've listed below (the above quotation comes from that source).
For me, I gnawed on ginger snaps and saltine crackers pretty much all throughout the day and never had too much trouble with morning sickness. I also drank a lot of salty drinks like Gatorade and had Ginger Ale sometimes, too.
I feel for you about feeling drained and sick --- please know that things get better by about week 16-20 for most women (8-12 weeks from now sounds like an eternity for sure, but I'm sure once you figure out some tricks to reduce your nausea, it will pass faster than you know it --- if not, please be sure to see your doctor to make sure you don't have something more serious than just the run-of-the-mill morning sickness).
You might find that in a few weeks you will start getting hungrier and won't have to worry about how to "force" yourself to eat. Not every woman gets a bigger appetite or has specific cravings when pregnant (I know I didn't). Hopefully, though, you'll be able to eat enough to not feel so drained (the drained feeling might be related to the pregnancy and not necessarily due to not eating enough --- a lot of pregnant women feel wiped out --- particularly at the beginning of the pregnancy and then again at the end of the last trimester when the baby is so big and pressing into their ribs/diaphragm and making it hard to take a full breath). So, you might find that the tired feeling goes away in a few weeks or so without your increasing your eating. Good luck to you!
