And the Winner Is: The Whole 9 Months: A Week-By-Week Pregnancy Nutrition Guide with Recipes for a Healthy Start

Experts say pregnant women should consume an extra 300 calories a day—and regrettably, not in pints of ice cream. Eating a well balanced diet of fruits, veggies, whole grains and lean proteins will support you and baby best. Dr. Lang aims to make it easy for Moms to be, breaking down the nutrition you need with over 100 easy recipes. Lang is a mother and OBGYN—she gets it, which is why her book is full of tricks to help you tackle nausea and cravings with ease.

What We Love

• This cookbook takes the guesswork out of how to eat for two, with details on which foods support Mom and baby best throughout the stages of pregnancy.

• The 100 plus recipes are simple, packed with essential pregnancy nutrients and easy to make (even for amatuer cooks).

• The book is inclusive too—there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options with tips on how to modify recipes to your preferences.
