PUSHING IT

We were super excited to get the chance to interview Lily Nichols author of Real Food for Pregnancy. Don't worry, there's only a little science in this episode, mostly it's super practical information for growing a baby and understanding how to feel your best.

Show Notes

At the first signs of pregnancy, many parents are quickly gathering the newest research on car seats, finding the best pediatricians and perfecting their birth plans. Few pause to ask if what we've told year after year about pregnancy nutrition is really the best. This week we have author Real Food for Pregnancy, Lily Nichols talking about taking the science and applying it to your real life. We know that not everyone has access to organic avocados or that the first trimester can be so rough. Lily brings tips and tricks to start changing your eating habits or to just incorporate new habits with pregnancy. She offers compassionate tips that real people can get behind.
