So I love hearing all the ways you personally are preparing for pregnancy, but I feel like often times in your podcasts I get the feeling that there’s no way to prepare for pregnancy and be vegetarian/vegan. Which I am. So I would just love to hear ways I can support my body and nutrition without compromising this part of me and my beliefs.
Thank you Karli for sharing your thoughts. In this particular episode I’m simply sharing what I am currently doing to prepare my body for pregnancy. Since I am not vegetarian or vegan, certain specific animal foods and fats are definitely part of my strategy. This is always a difficult topic. In episode 188 this is addressed in more detail, and specific strategies are discussed to optimize a vegan/vegetarian diet: http://fertilityfriday.com/188/

So I love hearing all the ways you are preparing for pregnancy. I will share it with my husband hope, so he will be happy to know this. Thanks for the inspiring me to be pregnant.
