My Preemie Twins Are Healthy Thanks to this "Diet"

I was pregnant with twins and really worried about eating well (and going into premature labor). After consulting with my OB I learned I don't have to eat alot more than with a singleton. I then purchased "The Pregnancy Diet". I ate 1-2 of the "Wholesome Whole-Grain Muffins" a day; these were easy to make. The "Chix Baked w/Lemon and Vegetarian Meatloaf" were my favorites too. I ended up going into premature labor. My twins were born at 29 weeks. They were excellent weights despite this. The neonatologist said I fed them well and the nurse said they were the biggest "29 weekers" she has ever seen. They are now 5, robust and healthy. People can't believe how early they were born. I recommend this book for everyone - if it can help me feed 2 babies very well, it can help you too!

great book for pregnant women

As a health care professional, I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in nutrition during pregnancy. The meal planning guides and recipes are great for moms! I use this book in my nursing practice!

A great book for women who worry about weight while pregnent

This book is very reassuring for any woman who is pregnant and worries about keeping the weight on after birth. The focus is on a healthy pregnancy but it gives the facts about what to expect about weight. I found it very comforting and empowering
