In addition, here is a  video series brought to you by www.whattoexpect.com in which Heidi Murkoff tell expectant parents how to go about eating healthy when they are pregnant.  First, she says, eat 5-6 mini meals a day instead of the usual three.  This will help when you are too nauseous to eat by adding nutrients a little at a time.  Remember, early on in pregnancy your pea- sized fetus doesnt require a whole lot.  So eat foods rich in lean protein and  and non fatty foods.  She also reminds women that they only really need an extra 300 calories while they are pregnant, so while you need to be mindful of how much you eat , the main thing is to be conscious of WHAT you eat.  You can see the full video here.

 

Remember that a healthy pregnancy is important to a healthy baby.  While we can’t always predict the future, banking your baby’s cord blood is an important  and possibly life saving choice.
