This is a good question for nutritionist. In my experience, generally, it is a good idea to avoid carbs in the morning and concentrate on the protein (plain yogurt is ok). Because in most pregnant women highest insulin resistance is in the morning and that causes higher sugars after breakfast. For other meals, good idea to have well balanced meals with little carbs and rest protein and vegetables.
Hope it helps.
