Today we talked about some common cravings in pregnancy & what that tells you about vitamins/minerals your body needs & how to make some healthy swaps... craving salty chips? your body needs chloride-> swap out for kale chips. Check out the chart below. We also talked about the importance of iron both in pregnancy and post partum. So I wanted to share a couple of fun, iron-rich recipes with you! (see attachments)

Do/did you have them? And any food aversions? When I was pregnant with my son, I didn’t really have any food aversions- everything just tasted bland! Except Mac & cheese! It was my staple comfort food especially in the first trimester when nothing else tasted good or sat right in my stomach. This week on the coffee chat I would love to get to know more about your nutritional habits during pregnancy and offer some guidance to any questions you may have on this topic.

Congratulations to member (and my sister) @Emily Darga on the birth of her Baby Girl! 💕🎀 When/if you feel comfortable sharing your birthing story, just start a new comment and select “chat” as the category. 💕 I look forward to working with you as your virtual post Partum doula 🥰
