This is something cool.... 2 days ago... i visited a middle-eastern grocery store next door to pick up some emergency grocery! I bought vegetable oil and coconut powder! The woman asked me `is ur wife pregrant'? It seems pregnant middle eastern women use a lot of this oil and coconut powder.. i didnt probe further.
And sorry, i cant suggest any recipe... cos Bhagyraj hasnt suggested anything in any of his movies! If he himself know nothing.. how will i know?

hai go to this site and get a table of contents for food to eat during pregnancy..
http://www.bradleybirth.com/r477.htm
one more thing i heard through my mom.
pottu kadalai 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup
panag kalkandu (jaggery made out of palm fruit juice) or kalkandu 1/2 cup
ghee
finely powder sugar, pottu kadalai and kalkandu and store this powder in a container
when u want to eat take aspoon full of the powder and mix in hot ghee adn make urindai and eat..
this can be made in a bulk amount ..but fresh ones taste better
pregnanat ladies must eat a lot of keerai and vegetables with naar satthu like vaalai thandu and avarakai and vaalaikai.

Honey-Dijon Chicken
(Makes 4 servings)

4 (about 1 pound total) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
PREHEAT oven to 400° F. Line baking sheet with foil; lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.
COMBINE honey and mustard in small bowl. Place chicken on prepared baking sheet; sprinkle with pepper.
BAKE for 15 minutes. Brush with honey-mustard mixture. Bake, brushing twice with additional glaze, for 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center (170° F.). Sprinkle with parsley.
