Creating a pre-conception Program specifically designed for you.
Couples these days rarely do not plan for things. We live in a world where both partners are working, time is of the essence and usually when a new baby is being thought of, pregnancies are somewhat planned. So when this conversation is being had, THIS is the time to start your pre-conception programme, a couple of months before trying. In the long run this will give your body the building blocks for fertility and a healthy pregnancy.
Fertility and how quickly a couple conceive will depend on a number of different factors. Both the male and female partner need to take part in this preparation. The couple should engage in at least a three-four month healthy eating programme in order to maximise their chances of having a baby and most importantly a healthy baby. You are giving your baby the best present ever by giving them the best start in life. A healthy diet supports your body; it will include nutrient dense foods for hormonal function, egg health and sperm health. It is important to know the foods which are beneficial to a baby’s health and development. If you are eating a well-balanced diet and maintaining other factors such as decreased stress you are giving yourself the best possible chance of getting pregnant. When the body is being optimally nourished and unhealthy foods are being avoided the body is able to repair and rebuild itself, especially if there are any underlying fertility issues.
At present:
- Have you any hormonal imbalances?
- Are you stressed out?
- Are you eating the correct balance of nutrients, minerals and essential fats?
Are these areas that we need to work on?
Here at Nutrition4Living we will look at a personalised programme which is suited to you and your needs.
