Many expectant Mums are concerned about gaining weight during pregnancy, getting stretch marks and losing weight after baby is born. Should you diet during pregnancy and what is best for your baby?

The health of your child should be your paramount concern whilst pregnant as what you eat will have a direct effect on your baby in the womb as well as their entire life. It is essential that you follow a healthy diet for your own well being as well as the health of your child as this is likely to determine your child's food preferences throughout his or her life.

If you eat junk and processed food, you will pollute your body and poison your baby with the chemicals food manufacturers use to maintain shelf life and make the food look more appetising. In addition, you are likely to put on weight, raise your blood sugar levels and your blood pressure which can have adverse consequences for your child.

Furthermore, this type of diet is likely to determine the type of food preferences that you child will have throughout their life and lead to weight problems, childhood obesity and health problems in later life.

Obesity doesn't run in families because it is hereditary, it is the diet the whole family eats that determines why they are all obese. However, a child can inherit eating problems from their mothers diet whilst she is pregnant and it is therefore essential that you adopt and maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle from the moment you start trying for a baby.

La Feytaud provides a well balanced and healthy diet with all the nutrients, vitamins and acids your body needs to promote a healthy pregnancy. If you are not fat, it will help you maintain a healthy body weight throughout your pregnancy. If you are overweight, it will help you lose weight in a healthy manner that is best for your baby because it will be getting all the natural nutrients it needs to promote healthy growth.

La Feytaud includes vegetables and fruit that provide the essential vitamins, acids and nutrients your body needs to maintain healthy organs and help prevent stretch marks. If your body is getting the oils and vitamins it needs to protect your skin and you are maintaining a healthy diet, you are less likely to get the stretch marks that many women suffer from.

La Feytaud will also help determine the type of diet your child is going to prefer when they move onto solid foods and this will play a deciding factor on whether your child has eating or weight disorders in their early years.

When your child is born, if you have followed La Feytaud, you should find that your child will have good sleeping patterns rather than a child who cries all the time and doesn't want to sleep because they are craving something that you had in your diet whilst pregnant. Babies who are born to mothers who smoked, drank alcohol, took drugs or ate a poor diet during pregnancy are often born with cravings for whatever addiction the mother had. Constant crying and poor sleep patterns are often the sign of a baby going through "cold turkey" as they are weaned off the craving.

Having had your baby, La Feytaud will help you lose any weight you may have gained during your pregnancy in a healthy way and help promote much needed energy and better sleeping patterns.
