Nutritional Counseling

Our partner registered dietitians and licensed nutritionists have successfully completed advanced education in nutrition science and dietetics.  Our team believes that maintaining excellent nutrition and a healthy diet during pregnancy is critical for the health of both mother and child.

At Strong Ties, our team’s nutrition counseling strategy focuses primarily on:

• promoting a healthy diet and lifestyle

• promoting adequate weight gain

• promoting the use of micronutrients and food supplements or fortified foods.

We aim to:

• support optimal gestational weight gain

• reduce the risk of anemia in late pregnancy

• increase birth weight

• lower the risk of preterm delivery

• promote a healthy milk supply for optimal breastfeeding
