Nutritionist For Pregnancy

Benefits of Seeing a Nutritionist For Pregnancy

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 maternity experience is unique, miraculous, sometimes scary, and filled with wonder. Everybody has an idea of what’s right, what’s not, and they’ll certainly let you know. Add a google search that throws up 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 a nutritionist while pregnant, 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. An individualized diet plan can reduce your chances of developing complications. And, it can help you feel better, battling uncomfortable symptoms like bloating, morning sickness, fatigue, and more.

Consultation Packages and Plans

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