Juices are a good way for you to get some vitamins, but you should not drink juice instead of water. And don't skip your prenatal vitamins, which have nutrients that you will probably not get enough of, even from fruit or vegetable juices, such as folic acid and iron.

You can get vitamin C from orange, carrot, melon or berry juices and especially fresh juice. Vitamin C is important for growing tissues and bones. Mango juice will give you some vitamin E, which boosts your immune system. Some vegetable juices will provide complex-B vitamins, but keep an eye on the high sodium levels that can make the swelling in your ankles and legs much worse.

Be aware that if you have a history of diabetes or have developed gestational diabetes (diabetes during your pregnancy), you may need to limit the amount of juice you drink, since it is often high in carbohydrates or sugars.
