Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Announcing Eating Well When You're Expecting, providing momsto- be with a realistic approach to navigating healthily and deliciously 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, very exciting, the book comes with 150 contemporary, tasty, and healthy recipes that feed mom and baby well, take little time to prepare, and are gentle on queasy tummies.

A departure from its predecessor, What to Eat When You’re Expecting, which has 976,000 copies in print, Eating Well loses the whole-wheatierthan- thou attitude, and comes with a light, reader-friendly tone while delivering the most up-to-date information. At the heart of the book are 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? Guess what: the answer is yes.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Expect A Mixed Bag With "Conventional" Food Advice
It seems like every pregnancy, diet and health book advocates the exact same diet. Is this a conspiracy? Has this diet even been tested on lab rats? What is the research behind these guidelines?

* No Junk food - this is good advice except half the foods in the book, such as foods with processed flours, and soy are unhealthy (junk food). The author ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Eating well
I love this book, but alot of the recipes call for things that aren't everyday household items.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Expected More
If you have no clue about basic nutrition, this book is for you. If you are a healthy eater and a pretty well informed person, you don't really have to get this book unless you want confirmation that you're doing all the right things.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Helpful Ideas
Sometimes in these times it's hard to make the time to eat properly for our growing baby. This book made it helpful to make sure I am eating the proper things....



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Book
I loved this book, it helped my break done the dos and donts for being a first timer. I am hungry all the time and it really helped me break down the good and bad calories. I have always struggled with eating healthy, and this did wonders for me.
