Eating Well During Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a time to nourish yourself and your baby. Eating nutritious foods that you enjoy and reflect your culture and traditions can help you feel your best and provide nutrients you both need.

We respectfully acknowledge this Provincial Prenatal Education was developed at Perinatal Services BC on the unceded, traditional and ancestral territories of the Coast Salish People, specifically the xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-waututh) Nations who have cared for and nurtured the lands and waters around us for all time. We give thanks for the opportunity to live, work and support care here.

We wish to acknowledge with gratitude that we also collaborated with many partners who live on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territories of many B.C. First Nations. We also acknowledge that there are other Indigenous people that live on these lands that originate from their own respective territories outside of these lands, the Chartered Communities of the Métis Nation B.C. and Inuit.
