Pregnancy Nutrition

Grilled salmon and vegetablesMany people underestimate the importance of nutrition in Pregnancy.  You are growing a whole new being and your body has to have all the building blocks it needs for  optimum health for you and for your baby.

If you are like most of my clients, you already eat a fairly healthy diet and know what foods work for you.  Even so, many of my clients are depleted in a few key nutrients–nutrients that can make a huge difference in the quality of your pregnancy and the well-being of your child.

Pregnancy can be an challenging time with hormonal changes and different nutritional demands.  Everyone has different needs and I think it is essential to make sure you enjoy your food and feel relaxed around eating–your baby is getting their first “taste” of the world through you!

 

Our sessions will help you to feel confident about your nutrition during pregnancy and post-partum.

You will learn:

  • What foods are right for YOU during pregnancy?
  • What foods do you really need to avoid during pregnancy?
  • Do you need supplements?
  • How you can avoid common pregnancy problems with diet.

 

Nourishing your body with whole foods that are optimal for your needs will support you in feeling good during your pregnancy & giving birth to a healthy baby.  Optimum nutrition can make birth & breastfeeding much easier, too.

With over 16 years of nutrition consulting experience, I can help you find the combination of foods and supplements that works for you.

Here is a recent blog post I wrote about Pregnancy nutrition.
