The Do’s and Don’ts of Nourishing Your Body Postpartum

Hey, Mama! First of all, let me say this: you are incredible. Your body just created a whole human being! Whether it’s your first baby or your fourth, you’re in a season of big changes—physically, emotionally, and mentally.   And while it might feel tempting to dive into the whole “bounce back” culture, I’m here to remind you that your body deserves so much more than that. This is your time to heal, replenish, and thrive. So let’s talk about how you can use nutrition to feel your best during this postpartum chapter!   What I discuss:  Don’t even think about dieting.  Also, don’t put pressure on yourself to count your macros Use this time of life to eat intuitively — your body needs a lot so don’t hold back from giving it what it’s asking for.  If you do count one macro, let it be protein. Try to build all your means around protein, aiming to get 20-30g per meal to keep you more energized and satiated.  After protein, fill your diet with lots of health fats and fiber.  Make sure you’re incorporating iron and vitamin-c rich foods into your daily food intake.  HYDRATE. HYDRATE. HYDRATE!   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...
