On today’s episode, Dana interviews Cristina about pregnancy nutrition troubleshooting and nutrition for pregnancy real talk! There’s so much nutrition information out there about pregnancy, and sometimes it can have a little bit of a rose-colored glasses vibe. As someone who is a parent of 2 (Cristina), it can be really frustrating to not have a full picture of what symptoms in pregnancy can look like. It can feel really isolating – like something’s wrong with me.There is nothing wrong with you; everyone’s pregnancy experience is different. I’d like to shed light on some of my real life experiences, that not everyone feels like a pregnancy goddess. Welcome to the nutrition for pregnancy: expectations vs reality episode.
