Week 7 of pregnancy: nutrients to focus on

Week 7 of 42 First trimester Source-backed Educational only

Short answer

In week 7, Niva puts folate, vitamin B6 and hydration first in its food ideas, with protein alongside. This is a food prompt, not a new target: the daily reference amounts for pregnancy stay the same from week to week.

Main focus in week 7

Folate. Food examples from ACOG: fortified cereal, enriched bread and pasta, peanuts, dark green leafy vegetables, orange juice, beans. Read more: Folic acid and folate in pregnancy
Vitamin B6. Read more: Pregnancy nutrients by week and trimester
Hydration. Read more: Week 11 Food Focus: Hydration

Also in view

Protein. Read more: Week 21 Food Focus: Protein

Why these nutrients

Folate and vitamin B6 are included in general pregnancy intake guidance. Niva uses the same focus for weeks 5 to 7.
