Fish in pregnancy is one of the highest-impact foo Fish in pregnancy is one of the highest-impact foods… but the advice around it is so messy that most people either worry endlessly or avoid it altogether.

Not good!

Guidance to “limit seafood intake” is outdated and will keep you deficient in nutrients like DHA, iodine, vitamin D, selenium, and more. 

If fish is a hard no (nausea, aversion, allergy, preference), you need the right alternate foods and a supplement! 

We have this full plan laid out for you inside @theprenatalnutritionlibrary app 💛

You need….CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY YOGURT BITES 💞🍫

What you’ll need:
— fresh raspberries 
— Greek yogurt 
— almond butter
— honey
— dark chocolate (I used @hukitchen )
— coconut oil (helps make chocolate smooth)
— chia, walnut, or pumpkin seeds 

Freeze them for 45-75 minutes then keep in the freezer in a freezer safe container. I recommend letting them sit out for 4-5 minutes before enjoying them.

I added them to a yogurt bowl which was quite tasty 😋

Feeling tired, puffy, or crampy? This might be a h Feeling tired, puffy, or crampy? This might be a hydration problem. 

Drinking more water doesn’t always fix it, of course! And, if more water still isn’t helping, it’s often a mineral/electrolyte issue. 

Here’s why hydration matters in pregnancy:
✅ Blood volume expands → you need more fluid to support circulation
✅ Digestion slows → hydration helps keep things moving
✅ Even mild dehydration can trigger headaches, fatigue, and dizziness
✅ Cramping / “tight belly” moments can happen more often when fluids are low
✅ Hydration supports nutrient transport to you + baby

If plain water is suddenly a no… you’re not alone. 

Try these hydration upgrades:
• Electrolytes (sodium + potassium + magnesium) 
• Hydrating foods (fruit, yogurt, soups, smoothies)
• Front-load fluids earlier in the day (so you’re not chugging after 5 pm)

💬 What’s hardest for you right now: water aversion, nausea, forgetting, or peeing 24/7?

If you want weekly pregnancy meal plans + trimester-by-trimester support, and our electrolytes guide, try the app @theprenatalnutritionlibrary ✨ available with a free trial in any App Store 💚
