Correct Answer: Calcium and Iron


Solution : The correct option is Calcium and Iron.

Pregnant women are more susceptible to become iron and calcium deficient. Because the body's requirement for iron grows to support the developing foetus and placenta, iron deficiency anaemia is a typical problem during pregnancy. Pregnant women require more iron in order to make additional blood for the baby and avoid anaemia. During pregnancy, calcium is very vital. Calcium is required for the development of the baby's bones and teeth, and if the mother's nutritional intake is insufficient, her body may need to draw on her calcium reserves causing deficiency.
