Episode 70: Second Trimester Tips: Staying Healthy & Avoiding Comparison

Colorful Eats

Today, we are talking pregnancy again, 2nd trimester specifically. Caroline just made it through her second trimester so we wanted to talk about some important aspects of nutrition and healthy living that can really make a huge difference in your and most importantly, your baby’s health. In today’s episode we are talking about the mental, physical and emotional wellbeing of mama in her second trimester. We believe that each one of these areas has importance on having a healthy pregnancy, labor and birth and creating a beautiful, healthy baby. We share some very important nutrients to focus your attention on during this time (and where to find them), how physical and emotional stress can affect you and baby and why giving yourself grace can allow for more joy during this amazing time. We also touch on high risk pregnancies and those dealing with complications and hope to encourage those mamas dealing with the emotional and physical sides of this. If you have a girlfriend, sister or family member who would benefit from listening to today’s episode, please share the love! We’d also like to ask a little favor–if you haven’t already, head over to iTunes or your purple podcast app and leave a review for the Colorful Eats podcast. It’s quick, simple and we absolutely love hearing from you.
