Schwanger Essen is a free lifestyle app developed by Bayerische Staatsregierung, designed to provide couples planning for pregnancy and expectant mothers with scientific-based information on healthy eating, exercise, well-being, risks, and preventive measures. The app offers a user-friendly interface with a wealth of content, including expert advice, pregnancy workout routines, and interactive features like nutrition, exercise, and well-being checks. Supported by the Bavarian State Ministry of Food, Agriculture, and Forestry, the app adheres to the recommendations of the Gesund ins Leben network, an initiative by the German government.

With a focus on empowering users with essential knowledge, Schwanger Essen covers a wide range of topics such as nutrition, exercise, weight management, risks, well-being, and birth-related information. From pre-pregnancy health to postnatal care, the app guides users through each stage of pregnancy and beyond, addressing common queries like alcohol consumption during pregnancy, suitable exercises, and nutritional requirements. The app also forms part of a trilogy, including subsequent apps for baby and toddler nutrition.
