You’re in the home stretch! The third trimester is all about preparing your body for birth and recovery while supporting your baby’s final growth spurt.

✨ Omega-3s– supports baby’s brain + eye development
✨ Iron – prevents anemia + supports energy before delivery
✨ Fiber – helps ease constipation (so common at this stage!)
Quick + filling meal idea:
A quinoa bowl with shrimp, broccoli, and a drizzle of olive oil.
(Bonus: add creamy avocado for extra healthy fats!)

Nutrition before pregnancy matters more than most people realize. Building nutrient stores before conception can support fertility, early development, and your own energy for the journey ahead.

Key nutrients to focus on in this phase:
Folate – supports early brain + spinal cord development
Iron – prepares your body for increased needs in pregnancy
Omega-3s – support egg health + reduce inflammation

One of my favorite simple meals for preconception?
A hearty lentil + spinach salad with avocado + pumpkin seeds.
(Bonus: add wild-caught salmon for extra omega-3s!)

Save this post for inspiration when you’re planning your meals this week.

After a quiet 6 months away from The Pelvic OT blog, I’m back—with some BIG life updates!

First up… we welcomed a beautiful baby BOY into our family 💙👶 and it’s been the most tender, transformative season.
Second… I’ve been quietly working behind the scenes building something very close to my heart.

Introducing: HerPath OT & Wellness
My new private practice devoted to pelvic health, perinatal wellness, and nervous system-informed care.

I’m beyond excited to share that perinatal nutrition telehealth services will be launching this fall, with expanded pelvic health offerings coming next spring! And psst… there are a few surprise services in the works later this year you won’t want to miss

A fresh new website is also on the way—stay tuned!
