        Foreword 
        Good nutrition is important for all New Zealanders, but it assumes an even greater 
        importance for women when they are pregnant or breastfeeding their infant. 
        Pregnancy is a time when nutritional needs are higher, and meeting those needs has 
        a positive effect on the health of both the mother and her unborn baby. The effects of 
        nutrition while the foetus is developing during pregnancy last for a lifetime, and we want 
        to see children inherit a legacy of good health for the future. We also want to see women 
        enjoying a healthy pregnancy without the negative effects of poor nutrition on their health, 
        and in the best possible nutritional state to support breastfeeding. 
        Breastfeeding is the best and safest way to feed infants, and women and families need to 
        be given all the advice and support possible to assist them in establishing and continuing 
        breastfeeding for at least the first six months of the infant’s life. 
        This background paper brings together all the key areas of food and nutrition affecting 
        the health of pregnant and breastfeeding women. It is intended that health practitioners, 
        educators and caregivers will use this paper and the accompanying health education 
        booklets, Eating for Healthy Pregnant Women and Eating for Healthy Breastfeeding Women, 
        to provide sound advice and support to pregnant and breastfeeding women and their 
        families to achieve a healthy lifestyle. 
        Food and Nutrition Guidelines for Healthy Pregnant and Breastfeeding Women: A 
        background paper supports three of the key priorities in the New Zealand Health Strategy, 
        and along with the other background papers in the series of population group-specific 
        background papers, forms an important technical basis for implementing the Healthy 
        Eating– Healthy Action Strategy.
