Nourish your body

Birthing parents often hear what NOT to eat while pregnant or breastfeeding, but guidance on nutritious options is harder to come by.  Parents want to eat in a way that supports their baby's development and their own health, but many just aren't sure how. We can help.

Nutrition services

Partum Health’s approach to nutrition support is highly tailored to the needs of each individual. Our registered dietitians meet you where you are and support you throughout the perinatal period.

Pre-pregnancy/fertility: optimize your diet for fertility, including reaching hormonal balance, reducing insulin resistance, and supporting egg and sperm health

First trimester: receive guidance on your body’s nutrient needs, manage symptoms like morning sickness, and get recommendations for prenatal vitamins and supplements.

Second and third trimesters: prevent and/or manage nutrition-related complications such as gestational diabetes as well as symptoms like heartburn, food cravings/aversions, cramping, and constipation. Guidance for meal prep and planning for postpartum nutrition.

Postpartum: meet your nutritional needs for recovery and build a foundation for healthy eating for the whole family.  Meet your lactation goals by managing increased calorie and nutrition intake requirements for breastfeeding and pumping.

Support for gestational diabetes

Up to 10% of US pregnancies are impacted by gestational diabetes (also called GDM). Our dietitians are experts in supporting those who have been diagnosed with  or concerned about (or at a higher risk for) developing GDM. They will help you develop a nutritional plan to support your health and the health of your baby.
