{13.4} Ask Me Anything: Eating meat, breastfeeding and calories, weight loss, feeding children

Raising Healthy Mothers

This week, I’m answering your burning questions in an AMA-style episode! Here’s what I cover:

• Should I be eating more red meat for breastfeeding or energy? What are the best alternatives for vegetarians or those who only eat fish?
• How to eat enough calories while breastfeeding without relying on sugar and empty carbs.
• What to do if your child seems to hate the texture of meat (and how to slowly introduce it in meals).
• Quick and easy lunch ideas for children with allergies (no eggs or nuts).
• How to survive on chronically low sleep when both your partner and baby are ill.
