Editorial Review: Product Description: Having a baby can and should be one of the most joyful experiences of a woman's life. While there are hundreds of books that provide information on how to ensure the development of a healthy baby, few of them dedicate more than a few pages to the nourishment of the mother herself during this physically and emotionally demanding time. It is rarely discussed, but women commonly experience a wide variety of ailments during the postpartum period, from depression to anxiety, backache, and loss of libido. A Natural Guide to Pregnancy and Postpartum Health is the first book by physicians that is devoted entirely to telling women how they can prevent postpartum problems and attain optimum health after the delivery of their babies. Elements of the program, which is meant to be adopted during-or, if possible, before-pregnancy, include diet, nutritional supplementation, exercise, hormone-balancing, the use of medicinal herbs, and conventional medications. Developed by the authors in clinical practice, this program has a proven track record in helping women to avoid and overcome postpartum difficulties. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Lots of info that "just makes sense"I bought this book hoping that I could avoid going through post-partum depression again by implementing the recommendations of the authors. While I haven't yet had my baby or started taking the supplements recommended, I already feel like I am armed and ready. So much of what the authors have to say just seems sensible to me. They discuss the normal eating habits of our western diet and show how the nutrients that are missing (or are overabundant) affect our physical as well as mental ... Read More Rating: - Postpartum Advocate Gives This Book Ten Stars!I've provided telephone support for new mothers for many years and have come to learn that nutritional support often ends mild to moderate mood issues. Hundreds of women have turned their postpartum symptoms around quickly after addressing nutrient depletion- I've seen them do so myself and I wrote a book on the subject. When I got ready to write a second, more detailed book I found Dr. Raffelock's work and realized I didn't need to write anything. He already explained exactly why and how ... Read More Rating: - Amazing informationThis book is so excellent! Everyone should read it, whether having a baby or not! It explains why our body needs certain nutrients and how easily nutrients can become depleted and stay depleted for years and lead to disease. It explains the "why" of things you're always hearing, such as don't eat sugar and flour, or eat more protein. Once you read it and understand how your body works, you feel really motivated to make the extra effort to provide your body with the foods it needs. Also, this book explains ... Read More Rating: - A Natural Guide to Pregnancey and Postpartum HealthI purchased this book because my husband and I are planning a second child. Our daughter is now four years old, and I suffer from several problems postpartum that I have seen numerous specialists about. I am currently under the care of an acupuncturist and am definitely benefitting from the information in this book. I agree with the author 100% in that without the proper nutrition and suplementation, it is hard to recover from pregnancy. Here's to a very healthy second! Rating: - Invaluable resource for pregnant and postpartum mothers and their partners!!In the West there are a few misconceptions that need to be dispelled. The first is that your body does not have to go downhill after pregnancy. The second is that the postpartum period is a genuine time for recovery and should not be neglected. A Natural Guide to Pregnancy and Postpartum Health is so helpful. It really lays out a comprehensive and clear outline for your nutritional and supplemental needs during pregnancy and postpartum. The bottom line... women's bodies get depleted during pregnancy and postpartum ... Read More
