Where are my first trimesters?? 🙋🏼‍♀️⁣
⁣
These 12 weeks are TOUGH! ⁣
⁣
You want to do everything you can to be as healthy as possible, but also everything sounds disgusting and you want to cry. ⁣
⁣
In short, it’s really exciting, overwhelming, and tasking on you and your body.⁣
⁣
If you CAN, try to eat the healthy foods you previously loved. ⁣
⁣
If you CANNOT, it’s okay to eat what you need to to survive.⁣
⁣
Remember, this is only temporary (for most) and you WILL get through it. 🙏🏼⁣
⁣
If you are having a hard time figuring out what the heck to eat to help you survive and baby thrive, The Prenatal Nutrition Library should really help iron this out. 👍🏼⁣
⁣
Join as a yearly member and get access to 5 30-day meal plans 🥑 so you can take the stress out of meal planning during your pregnancy! 🙌🏼⁣

How much water have you had today? 💦⁣ ⁣ If

How much water have you had today? 💦⁣
⁣
If you're struggling to get water in during the first trimester, remember other fluids and hydrating foods can count too! ⁣
⁣
Smoothies, broths, and watermelon to name a few.⁣
⁣
And as your pregnancy goes on, I know plain ole water can get boring...⁣
⁣
The good news is, there is a lot you can do to jazz it up, like adding lemon or lime! Or even buying a new fun water bottle to keep motivated to drink up!⁣

What is the perfect pregnancy diet?⁣ ⁣ Good qu

What is the perfect pregnancy diet?⁣
⁣
Good question - there isn't one!⁣
⁣
Just like when you're not pregnant, everyone's day to day is going to look a bit different and that's okay.⁣
⁣
If your typical routine has been totally thrown off due to nausea, appetite changes, food aversions, and more, this too is normal.⁣
⁣
It's very easy to freak out when it feels like so many things are out of your control.⁣
⁣
Now, more than ever, you have to trust and listen to your body. This takes practice!⁣
⁣
If you are looking for more guidance through this time, you came to the right place!⁣
⁣
[The Prenatal Nutrition Library] answers all the questions you’ve been googling since you found out you are pregnant (& more!).⁣

🥑 Annual members get meal plans for each trimester!⁣

Have you heard of pantothenic acid, aka vitamin B5

Have you heard of pantothenic acid, aka vitamin B5?! 🧐⁣
⁣
It is an essential B-vitamin that is involved in energy metabolism and the production of hormones & cholesterol!⁣
⁣
This vitamin may also help to ease leg cramps,⁣
⁣
so if you've been experiencing any painful leg cramps during pregnancy, pantothenic acid-rich foods may be your new best friends! 👋⁣
⁣
We are diving into the details on pantothenic acid inside The Prenatal Nutrition Library this week!⁣
⁣
Here's what you'll learn: ⁣
>What is vitamin B5?⁣
>Why is it important for pregnancy?⁣
>B5 deficiency⁣
>What foods contain B5?⁣

I know, I know, you have a lot on your to-do list before the baby arrives, but let’s talk about labor!⁣
⁣
It’s been compared to running a MARATHON! ⁣
⁣
And I am not making that up!⁣
⁣
So, you need to prepare your body for the journey ahead. ⁣
⁣
At the Prenatal Nutrition Library, we are making sure you feel super confident in fueling for labor including what to focus on 4-6 weeks before going into labor, food/beverages that may potentially help with labor, and tips for heading for the hospital + during labor.⁣
⁣
It's never too late to join!⁣

Weight gain will vary person to person and does no

Weight gain will vary person to person and does not define the outcome of your pregnancy, however-⁣
⁣
The science is clear that when women gain too much weight (or don’t gain enough, although this is way less common nowadays) in pregnancy it can lead to adverse outcomes.⁣
⁣
There is some disagreement as to what the guidelines are for appropriate weight gain (they vary a lot country to country!)⁣
⁣
The institute of medicine’s guidelines suggest that the more you weigh prior to pregnancy the less weight you should gain during your pregnancy.⁣
⁣
Here is a concluding statement from a study of 2,789 Korean women by Cho, Eun-Hee et al. - "In this study, we showed that early RGWG [rate of gestational weight gain] is highly associated with developing adverse pregnancy outcomes, suggesting that control of early weight gain is important in preventing such pregnancy-related adverse outcomes.”
⁣
Here at @prenatalnutritionist we focus on including nutrient dense foods, choosing what makes you feel-good, and meeting your nutrient goals! ⁣
⁣
The appropriate weight gain for YOU should come naturally, however, we can’t ignore the fact that weight gain in pregnancy matters!⁣
⁣
I created The Prenatal Nutrition Library so it’s easy for you to make the best food choices for two! 🤰🏼⁣
⁣
If you’re looking to manage your weight while focusing on FOOD (not the scale), head to the [link in my bio] and let’s get started ❤️

What are you craving this pregnancy?🤰🏼⁣
⁣
Cravings are, for the most part, completely normal! 👍🏼⁣
⁣
They can be a way your body is telling you that you need more of a certain nutrient- like folate! 🍊⁣
⁣
There are also cravings in pregnancy that we can’t totally explain 🤷‍♀️ ⁣
⁣
there is some thought there is a sense of nostalgia with cravings, for example, maybe you crave a food that you ate all the time in childhood.⁣
⁣
Super interesting!⁣
⁣
Join us inside The Prenatal Nutrition Library to manage and learn about your cravings to have a feel-good pregnancy! 🤰🏼⁣
⁣
TPNL will help you:⁣
✔️ gain confidence in your food choices⁣
✔️ avoid conflicting answers from Google⁣
✔️ know what to eat to have a healthy pregnancy⁣
