In this episode our hosts talk about how they balanced nutrition and eating during their pregnancies, and the impact this may have had on their diabetes care. We talk about such symptoms as that crazy third trimester hunger, acid reflux, low treatments during pregnancy, heightened sense of smell, cravings and our diabetes -friendly snacks.
For more information about nutrition during pregnancy, visit Dietitians Australia to search for an accredited practicing dietitian near you.
