Nutrition in Pregnancy
Event Information
About this event
Sometimes it can feel like there is a lot of information to process in pregnancy. When it comes to what you eat in pregnancy - this is no different! We are holding this workshop to help you explore all things nutrition during all stages of pregnancy.
This session is being led by Monika Bettney. Monika is a Specialist Dietitian, with vast experience in Gastroenterology. Monika has helped many people with conditions such as IBS, Liver, Biliary and Pancreatic diseases, Inflammatory Bowel and Coeliac disease. Monika also specialises in reproductive health and nutrition - supporting those going through PCOS, menstrual irregularities, endometriosis, menopause and more.
What will we cover?
This session will be an open, relaxed general discussion about nutrition in all stages of pregnancy. It will be a general discussion forum, but we will cover the foods that are beneficial and those that should be avoided during pregnancy.
Who can join?
Anyone can join! Whether you are planning on being pregnant, are pregnant or you're supporting someone going through pregnancy. Everyone is welcome to join.
Donations
The SMC believes that our services should be available to anyone who wants to access them; which means people can pay what they can afford for our tickets. We offer a suggested price, but we don’t check how much people pay for tickets and no one will ever be turned away due to a lack of funds.
However, as an organisation dependent on donations and grant funding we ask that if you can afford to pay then you do! Your generous contribution towards our work goes toward paying our session leaders, birth workers and making it possible that people who can’t afford to pay to have the same access to services we believe you all deserve.
Inclusivity and Confidentiality
Inclusivity, safety, respect, confidentiality and consent are fundamental principles of the SMC and we ask all attendees to uphold them too.
