Ann C. Sheffield –

  

What a perfect book for all grandparents-to-be to give their expectant, or soon-to-be expectant, daughters and daughters-in-law. Much better than our outdated and possibly resented advice! Although this book is so delightful, Grandma will probably read it first or buy two copies and keep one for herself.
Largeman-Roth takes the reader on the journey from pre-pregnancy through the child’s birth and breast feeding. As an encouraging, never judgmental coach, she explains how pregnant mothers can best take care of themselves and their babies by discussing what foods are healthiest and why. In a supportive tone, she offers the mother-to-be realistic advice on everything from food cravings to dealing with gas to healthy snacks to eating out at fast food places to drinking enough water to surviving morning sickness to best equipping your kitchen.
Largeman-Roth must have a great sense of humor–this book is fun! It’s also remarkably easy to read and understand despite the large amount of nutritional information it contains. There is nothing dry or boring in “Feed the Belly”. Largeman-Roth makes it all seem simple. She comes across like a helpful confidante who wants you to follow her advice without being compulsive about eating healthy.
There’s a whole chapter on exercise–something that other pregnancy nutrition books skip completely. It includes a list of places to buy hard-to-find maternity exercise clothes, as well as a list of yoga poses that are safe for pregnancy. With obesity such a looming issue these days, Largeman-Roth does the reader a great service by encouraging pregnant women to get–and stay–active. And that’s good news for your grandkids too.

Nutrition made easy for expecting moms…, August 26, 2010

By 

New Mom –

This review is from: Feed the Belly: The Pregnant Mom’s Healthy Eating Guide (Paperback)

I loved this book. Happened on it by accident and it turned out to be great. As a first time mom you have so many questions about what you should be doing nutritionally for you and the baby. This book makes it easy to understand. It outlines what kind of food will get you the vitamins you need with super easy recipes that actually taste good to incorporate them. I’m still making some of the recipes and my daughter is now 4 months old. And now I’m buying the book for two of my newly pregnant girlfriends. Absolutely recommend!

This review is from: Feed the Belly: The Pregnant Mom’s Healthy Eating Guide (Paperback)

What a perfect book for all grandparents-to-be to give their expectant, or soon-to-be expectant, daughters and daughters-in-law. Much better than our outdated and possibly resented advice! Although this book is so delightful, Grandma will probably read it first or buy two copies and keep one for herself.
Largeman-Roth takes the reader on the journey from pre-pregnancy through the child’s birth and breast feeding. As an encouraging, never judgmental coach, she explains how pregnant mothers can best take care of themselves and their babies by discussing what foods are healthiest and why. In a supportive tone, she offers the mother-to-be realistic advice on everything from food cravings to dealing with gas to healthy snacks to eating out at fast food places to drinking enough water to surviving morning sickness to best equipping your kitchen.
Largeman-Roth must have a great sense of humor–this book is fun! It’s also remarkably easy to read and understand despite the large amount of nutritional information it contains. There is nothing dry or boring in “Feed the Belly”. Largeman-Roth makes it all seem simple. She comes across like a helpful confidante who wants you to follow her advice without being compulsive about eating healthy.
There’s a whole chapter on exercise–something that other pregnancy nutrition books skip completely.

Get back in your pre-pregnancy jeans!, November 18, 2010

By 

Christene Ledoux (Innsbruck, Austria) –

  

This review is from: Shrinkx Hip Compression Belt (Apparel)

I have struggled with my weight, all my life. I wasn’t too worried about my post-pregnancy body because I know every diet trick in the book. However, what I didn’t know is no diet in the world will give you back your pre-pregnancy hips. That’s a whole different ball of wax!
If you’re reading this, I’m sure I’m not telling you something you don’t already know, but just in case, your hips do change after the baby.
The best time to use this seems to be within those first few months postpartum. I admit I wasn’t great about using it all the time in those early days, but even so, I have seen a big difference! I did not measure my hips pre or post, but I can definitely tell not only by the way my (pre-pregnancy) jeans fit but the fact I can fit in them at all! I would recommend Shrinkx to any of my friends and family, in a heartbeat! I also found dealing with this company not only incredibly easy but pleasant.
If you’re like me and have a closet full of jeans, pants, skirts etc… you don’t want to give up to Goodwill, I highly recommend buying this awesome product!

Great Product!, May 19, 2010

By 

KRutledge (TX United States) –

This review is from: Shrinkx Hip Compression Belt (Health and Beauty)

This product was recommended to me by a friend just after I had my third child. Skeptically, I wore it as recommended and am back down to my pre-pregnancy weight and wearing pants I have not been able to wear for years. It didn’t happen overnight but it did happen and I’m totally sold. I am going to recommend this product to all my friends that are pregnant or ever get pregnant!

Worth Every Penny!, May 26, 2010

By 

Courtney Nunez (Houston, TX) –

  

This review is from: Shrinkx Hip Compression Belt (Health and Beauty)

I received shrinkx as a gift at one of my baby showers. I was VERY skeptical about their claims of “shrinking” your hips back down to their pre-pregnancy size or even smaller. I measured my hips before getting pregnant and then right before I had the baby and my hips had expanded 3 inches! I started wearing shrinkx 1 week after giving birth and 3 weeks later I was back into my pre-pregnancy jeans. Currently, my hips are back to their normal size and are actually a 1/2 inch smaller This is an awesome product and I highly recommend it!

At first I just felt relaxed,hopeful and convinced I could accept pregnancy,labor and birth easily while I was listening, Then I began to feel confident even when not in an hypnotic state. Eventually I felt calm ,centered ,energized and comfortable in all areas of my life. I had a wonderful pregnancy and an easylabor and birth. It really helped at a deep level. I highly recommend this whether you are preparing for a c section,epidural or a natural birth. I actually used the whole program.

I truly found Peace ,Comfort and Serenity, November 1, 2005

By 

enza (LA,CA) –

This review is from: Creating Comfort Within Relaxation for a Mindful Pregnancy and an Easy Hypnotic Birth (Audio CD)

Iused this throughout my entire pregnancy. At first I just felt relaxed,hopeful and convinced I could accept pregnancy,labor and birth easily while I was listening, Then I began to feel confident even when not in an hypnotic state. Eventually I felt calm ,centered ,energized and comfortable in all areas of my life. I had a wonderful pregnancy and an easylabor and birth. It really helped at a deep level. I highly recommend this whether you are preparing for a c section,epidural or a natural birth. I actually used the whole program. The Leclaire Hypnobirthing Bundle For Happy Hypnomoms And Blissful Hypnobabies. It is truly a gift of wellbeing
