You’ve just found out you’re pregnant—now what?
Suddenly, everyone has an opinion on what you should eat. You’re Googling foods at every meal, trying to remember which cheese is safe, and wondering whether your prenatal multivitamin covers everything your baby needs. And if you’re dealing with nausea, even the idea of food feels overwhelming.
This is a powerful window to support your baby’s development—but you don’t need to do it perfectly. You just need a calm space to get the right info and feel supported along the way.
You’ll walk away with:
• A clear understanding of which nutrients matter most (and how to get them)
• Ideas for managing nausea while still nourishing yourself
• Confidence in reading supplement labels and food safety
• A calm sense of control during this exciting (and sometimes uncertain) time
This program is here to help.
