What foods are good for hair & skin?

There's no tried and true. If she's got morning sickness it's best for her to just eat whatever she thinks will stay down. Healthwise, have her give up empty calories like pop, potato chips, prepackaged snacks. Lean meats, chicken, lots of fresh fruit and veggies, whole grains. The best food advice I ever got (pregnant or not) is to stop buying meals and start buying ingredients. Cut out the junk and make sure to increase soluble and insoluble fibre and make sure to eat foods rich in iron (some red meat, and lots of dark green leafy veggies). And when the craving hits you for a cheeseburger, ice cream etc, indulge it. You're only pregnant once, and if the baby wants french fries, let it rip. Just realize that it's a treat, not an everyday thing.
