Following vegetarian diet during the pregnancy period is a healthy and wise selection. A pregnant woman ought to take four major food groups every day. The diet should include fruit and vegetables, carbohydrates, protein rich foods and dairy foods: soy, cooked dried beans or peas, tofu, nuts or seeds, peanut butter, and eggs.

These foods are really good sources of protein—include beans, fresh dark green vegetables, and whole grains.
