The amount of food fear around bananas and potatoe The amount of food fear around bananas and potatoes is honestly ridiculous šŸ«  People hear ā€œcarbsā€ and immediately think: bad for blood sugar bad for weight gain bad for gestational diabetes Bananas and potatoes contain carbs, yes. They also contain nutrients your body needs in higher amounts in pregnancy, like potassium, magnesium, fiber, vitamin C, and B6. Minerals like potassium and magnesium are widely under consumed. Bananas šŸŒ and šŸ„” are easy and widely accessible, literally zero reason to avoid unless you are allergic. This is why the TPNL app exists! Not to give you more food rules.

After birth, everyone tells you how to feed the ba After birth, everyone tells you how to feed the baby. Almost no one tells you how to feed yourself. Meanwhile, your body is trying to recover from pregnancy, birth, blood loss, broken sleep, stress, and for some moms, nursing on top of all of it. Your nutrition needs change. And yes, some of them go UP after birth! This doesnā€™t have to be complicated. But it does need to be on purpose. The foods you eat most often matter.

If youā€™re pregnant and freaking out about strawb If youā€™re pregnant and freaking out about strawberries because of pesticide posts online, take a breath. šŸ«¶šŸ¼ #sponsored You do not need to cut out strawberries. Yes, wash them well like all fruits and veggies. I wanted to share this in partnership with California strawberries because strawberries are an amazing food for pregnancy! They provide vitamin C, fiber, folate, hydration, potassium, and more. šŸ“ Also, strawberry farmers have every reason to grow food theyā€™d feel good feeding their own families and eating themselves. These farms are heavily regulated, and the fear around residue gets wildly exaggerated online!! For context, the amount matters. A woman could consume 453 servings of strawberries in a day before residue would even become a concern. Pregnancy nutrition is hard enough without the internet trying to make fruit look dangerousā€¦ For accurate and credible information about the safety of fruits and vegetables, visit www.safefruitsandveggies.com šŸ’› #safefruitsandveggies #strawberries
