Healthy Sweet Potatoes Recipes, Meals, and Foods for Pregnancy

Sweet potatoes are rich in fiber, potassium, vitamin A, vitamin B6, and vitamin C. Sweet potatoes may boost energy, may relieve nausea and constipation and heartburn, and are anecdotally believed to be lactogenic. Sweet potatoes are a carbohydrate and therefore should be limited if you’re a mama with gestational diabetes (15-30 grams for breakfast, 30-45 grams for lunch and dinner, 15 grams for snacks).
