Good nutrition is an important part of preparing for pregnancy, supporting a healthy pregnancy and recovering after delivery. We provide personalised nutrition guidance based on your health, pregnancy stage, nutritional needs and individual goals.
Eat well. Feel stronger. Support a healthy pregnancy.
Pregnancy changes the way your body uses energy and nutrients. Your nutritional needs also change as your baby grows.
However, pregnancy nutrition is not about following a restrictive diet or simply “eating for two.” Instead, it is about choosing nutritious foods, maintaining appropriate weight gain, addressing nutritional deficiencies and adapting your diet to your individual health needs.
Did you know?
Pregnancy does not mean you need to eat twice as much food.
Your nutritional requirements change during pregnancy, but the increase in energy needs is not equivalent to doubling your food intake. The focus should be on nutrient-dense foods, adequate protein, appropriate vitamins and minerals, hydration and healthy weight gain.

Pre-Pregnancy Nutrition Counselling
What it is
Pre-pregnancy nutrition counselling helps you prepare your body nutritionally before conception. It focuses on establishing healthy eating habits, identifying nutritional concerns and ensuring that important nutrients are adequately addressed before pregnancy.

What to expect

Weight Management During Pregnancy & After Delivery

I visited her a month or two ago after searching for a good doctor near me, and I’m so glad I found her. She is extremely sweet, humble, and approachable.
What I really appreciated was the way she explained everything in detail—from the diagnosis and treatment to the possible reasons behind the condition. She takes the time to answer all your questions and makes you feel reassured and confident that everything will be fine.
She is not only an excellent doctor but also a genuinely kind and caring person. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a good doctor who listens, explains, and makes you feel comfortable.
Thank you so much, doctor, for your kindness and reassurance! ❤️

We visited Dr. Rutuja’s Clinic, when we were quite anxious because of some complications. From our very first consultation, she made us feel comfortable and gave us a lot of confidence.
What I really appreciated was how approachable and responsive she was. She was available whenever we needed guidance, even at late at nights.....
We didnt felt like just another patient it was personal. She genuinely listens, explains things patiently and, most importantly, understands the emotional side of what you are going through. Your reassurance and emotional support meant a lot to us.
She is also very knowledgeable and we always felt that we were in safe hands.
We genuinely thank you Doctor for being there for us during an important and slightly difficult phase. Would definitely recommend Dr. Rutuja to anyone looking for a good gynaecologist.

You do not necessarily need a complicated or restrictive “pregnancy diet.” Instead, pregnancy nutrition focuses on eating a varied, balanced diet that provides appropriate energy, protein, vitamins and minerals. Your nutritional requirements change during pregnancy, and some supplements are commonly recommended, such as folic acid and iron, depending on your individual needs and medical advice. Dr. Rutuja can help you understand what is appropriate for your pregnancy rather than following generic diet plans.
How much weight should I gain during pregnancy?
There is no single ideal weight gain that applies to every woman. Recommended pregnancy weight gain depends partly on your pre-pregnancy BMI, the number of babies you are carrying and your individual health circumstances. Your doctor can monitor your weight over the course of pregnancy and determine whether your weight gain is appropriate. The goal is not to minimise weight gain, but to support healthy maternal nutrition and fetal growth.
Can I lose weight during pregnancy if I am overweight?
Pregnancy is generally not the appropriate time to follow a weight-loss diet without medical supervision. If you begin pregnancy overweight, the focus is usually on maintaining adequate nutrition and achieving an appropriate pattern of pregnancy weight gain rather than intentional rapid weight loss. Dr. Rutuja can guide you based on your pre-pregnancy BMI, pregnancy progress and medical conditions.
What nutrients are particularly important during pregnancy?
Several nutrients become particularly important during pregnancy, including folate, iron, calcium, vitamin D, iodine, protein and other vitamins and minerals. The exact requirements and need for supplementation depend on your diet, health, pregnancy stage and laboratory results. A supplement should not automatically replace a balanced diet, and you should discuss supplements with your doctor rather than taking multiple products without guidance.
What should I eat if I have gestational diabetes?
If you have gestational diabetes, your diet should be planned around your blood sugar levels, nutritional requirements and pregnancy needs. This may involve paying attention to carbohydrate portions, meal timing, fibre, protein and overall food quality. However, there is no single diet suitable for every woman with gestational diabetes. Dr. Rutuja can help you develop an appropriate approach alongside blood glucose monitoring and any medication that may be required.
