What to Expect: Eating Well When You're Expecting FROM THE PUBLISHER
All-new text, all-new chapters, and an all-new (guilt-free!) attitude. Far more than a revised edition, this is the all-new What to Eat When You're Expecting--an all-new book. A must-have companion volume to What to Expect When You're Expecting, What to Eat, with 976,000 copies of the original edition in print, focuses on the single most important aspect of pregnancy--nutrition. But this time around, What to Eat comes with a light, reader-friendly tone and dispenses with its whole-wheatier-than-thou attitude, providing moms-to-be with a realistic approach to navigating healthily 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 the book is complete with 150 dazzling, healthy recipes that also acknowledge the time constraints on working women.
But at the heart of the book are the 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 occasionally? (Guess what: The answer is yes.)
