That's great! If I was to go back in time I would've loved trying out smoothies as baby food. Cheers! Sara

i wonder, how was your labor this pregnancy in comparison to the other two. and the recovery time? i know that every pregnancy and labor is different, but i wonder if you noticed a difference you can attribute to your diet.

you are very inspirational and beautiful!!

I do high raw food diet, but do include both meat and dairy in the cooked portion of my diet. I ate a higher proportion of protein during pregnancy and never had any nausea. I'm not sure if that's the reason though, as I've been told by many that a predisposition to morning sickness is genetic.

who says that nausea is a normal prgenancy symptom? you might have been instinctively running from lettuce, because your body needs animal proteins and fats- read Weston A. Price to know more.

thanks this was actually very helpful to me. i have been soooooooooo nauseous! but now i have some ideas how to help that by just sticking to raw and being patient with my body.

whoohoo to an honest raw pregnancy!!! every pregnancy i've become more raw and superfoods helped so much. juice juice against the first trimester and third.

This is wonderful, to hear from someone having this experience. I think it's perfect that you decided to be gentle with yourself & not judge what you were craving or needing. A pregnant woman knows, more than anyone else, how important it is to honor her body & it's messages. No matter what anyone else thinks she should or should not be doing. Very generous of you to share this phenomenal experience with us here @ YT (o:

B12 and DHA are by far the most important supplements. Make sure your B12 levels are normal. Mercola just came out with a B12 spray and Flora makes a great Flax with DHA supplement. From one raw foodie to another, congratulations!
