The pregnancy cookbook - Vincent Connelly

Obstetrician Hope Ricciotti combines experience
from her practice with insight from her
pregnancies to give the best advice on how to
eat for two. She covers the latest nutritional
information, including vitamins, iron, folic
acid, and calcium, while letting you know which
foods are risky, particularly the latest
findings on mercury in fish. She gives tips on
exercising, minimizing morning sickness,
managing fatigue, and how to lose weight safely
after the baby is born.Dr. Ricciotti's
husband, chef Vincent Connelly, worked with her
to create almost 150 delicious recipes that
provide all the nutrients needed during
pregnancy. The recipes are suited to each
trimester and to a pregnant woman's changing
palate. Included are chapters on nutrition when
planning a pregnancy as well as advice and
recipes for the nursing mother. A separate
section on desserts anticipates a pregnant
woman's cravings for sweets with recipes for
delectable cookies and snacks.
