Join us for “A Healthy Belly Event,” a special Itsabelly event that will educate expectant moms on the importance of nutrition during pregnancy and how they can maintain optimum health for both themselves and their babies. Based on Largeman-Roth’s new MUST-have nutrition guide, Feed the Belly: The Pregnant Mom’s Healthy Eating Guide, the event will include an interactive mini-class on the book, an author Q&A session, and other nutrition and wellness topics of interest to expectant moms through Itsabelly’s local fitness and health partners.

 

Every soon-to-be mom wants to make sure she’s doing everything right for her baby, and Feed the Belly offers comforting answers to the quandaries over what’s safe—and healthy—to eat. 

Frances Largeman-Roth, RD will discuss:

  • What's safe to eat during pregnancy?
  • Recipes created especially for you and your belly
  • How much weight gain is appropiate
  • Tips for choosing healthy fast food

The session will also include a Q&A with the author and an interactive discussion.

Please join us for this informative event that every expectant mom can learn from. The price of the event includes a light lunch featuring recipes from Feed the Belly, a copy of the book, print materials to go along with the mini-class, and as with every Itsabelly and Mom and the City event, a raffle ticket for awesome giveaways and prizes.

Note: Those who just want to attend the book signing portion of the event from 10-10:45 AM may do so for FREE!

The event requires pre-registration, which is an awesome opportunity to submit any preliminary questions you may want to ask the author about prenatal nutrition and health.
