Product Description
Announcing Eating Well When You're Expecting, providing moms-to-be with a realistic approach to navigating healthily and deliciously through the nine months of pregnancy—at home, in the office, over the holidays, in restaurants. Thorough chapters are devoted to nutrition, weight gain, food safety, the postpartum diet, and how to eat when trying to conceive again. And, very exciting, the book comes with 150 contemporary, tasty, and healthy recipes that feed mom and baby well, take little time to prepare, and are gentle on queasy tummies.
A departure from its predecessor, What to Eat When You’re Expecting, which has 976,000 copies in print, Eating Well loses the whole-wheatier-than-thou attitude, and comes with a light, reader-friendly tone while delivering the most up-to-date information. At the heart of the book are hundreds of pressing questions every mother-to-be has: Is it true I shouldn’t eat any food cooked with alcohol? Will the caffeine in coffee cross into my baby’s bloodstream? Help!—I’m entering my second trimester, and I’m losing weight, not gaining. Is all sushi off limits? How do I get enough calcium if I’m lactose intolerant? I keep dreaming about a hot fudge sundae—can I indulge? Guess what: the answer is yes.

i used this book after pregnancy also and found it very helpful to me and my family when making dishes that were healthy. it helped to lose the baby weight than trying to diet to death.

If you know anything about proper nutrition and excercise, this book will be a waste of money. The recipes seemed exciting, but proved to be disappointing. The measurements and yields were not accurate on the recipes I tried. However, if you are clueless about clean, healthy eating this may be the book for you!
 So helpful! July 29, 2009

My husband and I are hoping to start our family soon and I wanted to make sure that I was eating as well as possible for healthy baby-making. It has great tips on how to combat morning sickness, make sure you're getting all your necessary vitamins and minerals and is just a great read. I love it!
Wonderful Resource! April 8, 2009
B. Dodson (Tulsa, OK)
This book is a bit daunting to get into as it is very detailed, but it is a wonderful resource for any questions you might have about what to eat and why during pregnancy.
Not a must-have March 12, 2009
Bridgit (Alaska)
This was one of the first books I bought when I found out I was expecting. It is a very nice resource to have, but most if the information in it can be found by reading pregnancy sites on the internet. By the time I recieved this book in the mail I already knew most of what was in it. The main reason I bought this book was for the recipes, but I've had the book for over a month and have only used two of the recipes. A lot of them call for ingredients I don't typically keep on hand.
