MTMM's Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy: Nourishing Mom & Baby Through Pregnancy and Beyond
The nine months of pregnancy and the immediate post-partum period represent the most significant and intense phases of growth and development that one will experience over a lifetime. It’s also one of the times where modifiable risk factors for disease can be most significantly augmented. It is an exciting, albeit challenging, time and can invoke feelings of anxiety, apprehension, and confusion.
