Pregnancy calendar - Week 10

Although your uterus has doubled in size and is now as large as a grapefruit, your bump is probably not yet showing. Indeed, your pregnancy might still be a secret from the world!

Hopefully you’ve already adopted some healthy pregnancy eating habits. When it comes to a healthy pregnancy diet, iron is one of the key nutrients you need. It's important for carrying extra oxygen around in your red blood cells and your baby needs it for their developing brain. If iron levels fall, your baby may be fine but you'll run the risk of becoming anaemic, which will leave you feeling tired, washed-out and generally unwell.

Your midwife may recommend an iron supplement. If not, pay particular attention to the iron-rich foods in your diet such as red meat, fish, eggs, dried fruit, wholegrain breakfast cereals and breads and green leafy vegetables. There's even better news - these foods all contain a wide range of important nutrients in addition to iron.
