Jess is on the home straight to becoming a Mumma! Katie checks in with Jess and the ladies put there practitioner hats on to discuss 2nd & 3rd trimester pregnancy nutrition, how to navigate through the common complaints such as reflux & constipation, how they would support women during labour itself, key research based supplements during this later stage of pregnancy and some of the other important lifestyle factors that make for a smooth journey. Lots of inspiration with the real life experience from Jess and both the ladies knowledge.
