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: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Recipes
The recipes in the back half of the book are uniformly excellent and very appealing, especially if you're suffering from morning sickness. I've only made one that we didn't care for (mac and cheese). I've made some of the dishes for potlucks and friends, and they went over great. Even my finicky husband has enjoyed the various dishes. The recipes are full of veggies and flavor and most are fairly easy to make. I really liked the muffins and sweets. She uses fruit juice, flax seeds and whole ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What to Expect: Eating Well
I am really enjoying reading this book and looking forward to trying some of the recipes. Of course, no two pregnant women will ever have the same experience, but there are great guidelines in this book for things to eat and not eat. It answers alot of questions and is full of all kinds of information, not just on food! I highly recommend it, especially if this is your first pregnancy, like me!



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?

Let's review the books recommendations.

*Eat Lean Meats
*Eat lots of Grains
*Eat lots of fruits and veggies
* 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.
