Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

White bread is safe to consume while pregnant and is often well tolerated during bouts of nausea. It is fortified with folic acid and calcium under federal standards, which supports fetal skeletal and neural development. The USDA advises pregnant women that white bread contains minimal dietary fiber compared to whole grain options. Eat white bread toast to settle morning sickness, but transition toward whole grains when nausea subsides.
