E163. Why you should be optimising your health before pregnancy

Why you should be optimising your health before pregnancy With Kathy Whyte Preconception health is so often forgotten or kept really surface level but the reality is your health status prior to getting pregnant has a profound impact on the health of your pregnancy and developing baby.  I am excited to be joined by this week’s guest, Kathy Whyte. Kathy is founder of Nurture Mum, a nutritionist and former Midwife with a keen interest in optimising health before, during and following pregnancy. Kathy is helping change perceptions of pregnancy, health, and society's response to the deepening crisis in public health and wellbeing. Recognising that the first 1000+ days of life is the greatest opportunity there is to develop healthy lives, from the very beginning.  Extra Stuff: Midwife Pips Guide to a Positive Birth: https://www.midwifepip.com/midwife-pip-books Check out Midwife Pip’s Courses - http://www.midwifepip.com/ Get in Touch: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/midwife_pip Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/midwifepip Email: https://www.midwifepip.com/contact-us Enjoy Listening... and don't forget to subscribe!  Midwife Pip x  Learn more about your ad choices.
