Calories!

I'm having trouble eating enough calories in the day. I'm not a huge eater to begin with, so it's hard to make sure I am getting enough for me and my little one. Does anyone have any good suggestions that are healthy but full of calories?

Try adding things like butter, mayonaise, and peanut butter to what you already eat. If you like milk, use whole milk to get some extra calories. Nuts are also a really healthy, high protein snack and have a denser calorie content. Rather than trying to force yourself to eat MORE foods, try and find a few high calorie supplements.

A banana has around 100 calories, so does the glass of milk. And both are very healthy during pregnancy
