Optimize your fertility. Get key nutrients to support your baby’s development and growth. Feel confident in food choices. Reduce risk of developing gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and other problems during pregnancy. Prepare your body for breastfeeding. Heal quicker after childbirth.
A woman’s experience getting pregnant and living through a pregnancy is unique, miraculous, scary, and filled with wonder. Everybody has an idea of what’s right, what’s not, and they’ll certainly let you know. Add google search with over 116,000,000 results for “healthy eating while pregnant.”
Just as most women don’t want to go through childbirth alone, getting the right nutrients at the right time to nourish your body and your baby’s developing body and mind takes someone with experience and education. Through evidence-based nutrition therapy, individualized to your specific needs (whether you’re a vegetarian or vegan mom, are struggling with gestational diabetes, and more), you can take the guesswork out of, “What’s for dinner?”
Working with nutritionist during pregnancy, one who meets you where you are to help you modify your diet to include key nutrients, can make a difference in your child’s cognitive and physical development. It can reduce your chances of developing complications during pregnancy and childbirth. And, it can help you feel better, battling those uncomfortable pregnancy symptoms like bloating, morning sickness, fatigue, and more.

During fertility and pregnancy, a woman’s nutritional needs are so unique. We find that a minimum of three sessions are typically needed for optimal results (depending on the stage of pregnancy). That said, because of the body’s changing needs from the first trimester to postpartum, we offer an array of discounted services, which includes access to meal plans, follow-up appointments and more. We will customize the session spacing for your needs, but the typical spacing during pregnancy is 2 – 3 weeks between sessions. Sessions must be used within 6 months.

Our RDNs stay informed of guidelines set by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics to provide our patients with expert nutrition counseling for their fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum health.
