An article that I had saved (now I don't remember where the article was taken from) states the following: During pregnancy it is necessary for the energy needs of the female to be satisfied by both fats and carbohydrates in the diet. Diets low in carbohydrates result in increased embryonic death, a greater number of still births, and higher neonatal mortality. I was wondering if people agree with this statement, and if so, what is a good source of carbohydrates (I assume rice or pasta)?
