Getting pregnant didn’t happen quickly for us. So instead of obsessing over timelines, we focused on what we could control:

1️⃣ Rebuilding nutrient stores.
Start with a high-quality, synthetic-free prenatal to nourish your body with enough Folate, Iron, DHA, Choline and Vitamin D.
Your baby takes what it needs from you, and you need enough to give before you're even pregnant.

2️⃣ Balancing blood sugar.
Stable blood sugar = better hormone signaling.
More protein. Strength training. Fewer spikes.

3️⃣ Lowering chronic stress.
Not just self-care, but real nervous system regulation.
Try going on more walks, get good sleep and implement strong boundaries.

Sometimes prep isn’t about doing more. It’s about creating a safer and stronger foundation.

3 non-negotiables for pregnant women, and yes, eggs made the list twice. Here’s why 👇

🥚 Eggs are one of the most nutrient-dense foods you can eat during pregnancy. One large egg contains:
• ~6–7g high-quality protein
• ~125–150mg choline (critical for fetal brain development)
• Vitamin B12
• Iodine
• Selenium
• Fat-soluble vitamins like A & D

Choline deserves special attention. The recommended intake during pregnancy is 450mg/day, and most women don’t hit it. Choline plays a major role in neural tube development, brain formation, and lifelong cognitive outcomes.
Two eggs alone can provide roughly 250–300mg of choline, which is over half the daily target.

🐟 Omega-3s (especially DHA)
DHA is a structural fat in your baby’s brain and retina. It supports:
• Fetal brain development
• Visual development
• Reduced risk of preterm birth
• Healthy inflammatory balance

Most experts recommend at least 200–300mg DHA daily during pregnancy and many women fall short. So why “more eggs”? Because they deliver protein, choline, and additional healthy fats in one simple, affordable food. Sometimes the most powerful nutrition isn’t complicated, and it always starts with real, nutrient-dense foods.

Out of the trenches...for now. 😭

Protein isn’t just about staying full. It’s one of the most underrated nutrients for fertility and pregnancy.

When you’re trying to conceive, protein supports healthy hormone production, balanced blood sugar, and egg quality.

Once you’re pregnant, your needs increase—because protein is literally helping build:
👶 the placenta
🩸 your expanding blood supply
🧠 your baby’s brain, organs, and muscles

The baseline recommendation in pregnancy is about 71g per day, but emerging research suggests many women may benefit from closer to 0.5–0.7 g per lb of body weight (1.2–1.6 g per kg)

Nutrition during this season should feel intentional, not overwhelming.

Here are 5 simple ways to increase protein without overthinking it:
🥚 Add 2 eggs to your breakfast (+12g)
🐮 Include Greek yogurt as a snack (+15–20g)
🐓 Prioritize 3–4 oz of protein at lunch and dinner (+20–30g each)
🍌 Add collagen or protein powder to smoothies or oatmeal (+10–20g)
🍓 Choose snacks that count—like our Daily Prenatal Bar, formulated with 100% whole foods to replace your entire prenatal vitamin routine. Each bar delivers the 24 essential nutrients to support fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum—including folate, iron, omega-3 DHA, and now, 4g of protein!
