All about nutrition for pregnant and breastfeeding women.

Hi. My name is Valerie Spark, I am a certified nutritionist and also a mom of a wonderful baby girl. I wrote this book on nutrition for expectant and new moms.It's a compilation of the most important and helpful information on how to eat right while pregnant and breastfeeding. You will find not only scientific facts backed by the latest research, but also lots of practical advice.

I will tell you which foods and nutrients are especially important for the health of your body and your baby during the magical time of pregnancy, help you understand food choices, and tell you how to create a varied and healthy menu for each day. And after childbirth, I will give you tips on how to regain and maintain your energy.

This book focuses on the impact of nutrition on the health and development of the baby in the womb. I explain which nutrients are especially important during pregnancy and how they affect the formation of the baby's organs and systems. You will learn about the role of folic acid, iron, calcium, and other vitamins and minerals during this time, and you will find recommendations to help you cope with possible problems during and after pregnancy, such as toxemia, heartburn, diabetes, fatigue, lack of sleep, and regaining normal weight.

This book also addresses the specifics of nutrition during lactation. I give practical advice on how to design a diet that promotes proper development and infant health through breastfeeding. Emphasis is placed on issues related to food selection, avoiding allergens, and maintaining adequate nutrition for the mother.

If you want to nourish yourself and your baby optimally so that they grow up healthy and happy, this book will be your trusted guide and help you every step of the way.
