Everyday, we rub our growing baby bumps to the point it becomes second nature. At times like these (and all other times, let’s be real), we ponder who our future children growing inside us will become.

Whether you wonder about their future profession…

“A doctor? An astronaut? The President of the United States?”

Or qualities of their personality…

“Will my child be kind? Will they be brave?”

We can’t escape thinking about the troubling side of things, as well. Thoughts may permeate your mind that may leave you feeling guilty.

“What if something is wrong with my baby? What if my child isn’t smart?”

First and foremost - don’t feel guilty! You’re not alone in having these thoughts, and they’re a normal part of being a pregnant mother.

Every new mom wants a healthy, smart baby. And the most important piece to ensuring this is proper nutrition!

What You Should Be Eating While Pregnant

Ensuring you’re getting enough nutrients like protein, folate, and DHA while you’re pregnant is vital for both you and your growing baby. And certain foods are especially important to eat to give your baby the best start possible.

On your first visit, your doctor more than likely went over a list of foods that are beneficial for nourishing you and your baby. In addition to drinking plenty of water, below is a list of what your doctor most likely recommended and why:

Dairy (particularly Greek yogurt)

Dairy gives you protein, calcium, and Vitamin D. During pregnancy, your growing baby will leach calcium from your body, which can weaken your bones.

Legumes

Legumes are rich in folates, another essential for your baby’s best development.

Sweet potatoes

Sweet potatoes have vitamin A which is necessary for cell growth. 

Eggs

Eggs are full of protein, the basic building blocks of a growing baby. 

Leafy greens 

Greens of the leafy variety have all the key vitamins you need, including but not limited to Vitamin A, Vitamin C, folate, fiber, and more!

Whole grains

Whole grains contain fiber, which promotes a healthy digestive tract and reduces the risk of preeclampsia. 

Avocados 

Not only are they delicious - avocados are full of good heart-healthy fats. 

As you can see from the above chart, there are lots of foods that promote overall good health for you and your growing baby.

Above all of these foods though, there is one “superfood” experts have touted that can help boost the brain power of babies: fatty fish. 

Fatty fish contains DHA, an important long-chain omega-3 fatty acid that has been shown to lead to an increase of IQ by 8 points before birth.

So, if you want a smarter baby, you need to eat more fish… right?

The Trouble With Eating Fish During Pregnancy

One of the biggest dilemmas for expectant moms is whether or not to eat fish.

Current expert guidelines suggest women intake low-mercury fish twice per week for the benefits of DHA.

But here’s the problem with that…

While fish contains DHA, due to environmental pollution it also contains mercury. Some studies have shown mercury may reduce a baby’s IQ by as many as 8 points before birth.

Research has shown most fish species have enough of the substance to pose an adverse effect on IQ scores - to the point that it “exceeded the beneficial effects of DHA.” 

Thankfully, there’s no need to put yourself and your baby at risk!

A lot of research exists today around DHA derived from microalgae, and how it can serve as a replacement for DHA derived from mercury-contaminated fish.

That’s why Baby Booster uses life’sDHA® in their protein shakes! Derived from microalgae, this DHA gives your baby the brain boosting power they need without the risk of harm.

Plus, Baby Booster’s shakes contain a packed house of pregnancy-safe ingredients and nutrients like protein and folate to help your baby develop safe and healthy.

And if you weren’t really a fan of eating fish before, you’ll be happy to know Baby Booster comes in four heavenly flavors: Tahitian Vanilla, Kona Mocha, Salty Caramel, and Creamy Strawberry.

Best shakes for pregnancy and breast feeding

“I have been drinking a Baby Booster shake every morning for breakfast since I was 4 months pregnant. My daughter is now 4.5 months old and I still drink one every morning before heading to work. I was diabetic going into pregnancy and I struggled to find a breakfast that I could keep down and would not spike my blood sugar. These shakes were the perfect solution. Even later in my pregnancy as my blood sugar got more sensitive I drank them every morning in water Instead of milk. They were my go to midnight snack that is quick and not full of sugar for those late pregnancy food cravings. The customer service is excellent, and quick to respond. The shakes are delicious and do not have any of the odd after tastes that protein shakes can have.”

Just what I needed! 

“I drank coffee everyday before We prepared for our frozen embryo transfer- that day, I drank coffee no more. I had really been missing it until I stumbled upon baby booster. It’s...”

Quickiest drink I can keep down

“I bought this product back in March ,but ended up pregnant last month. In the mornings and evenings, I'm in a rush thinking what to eat or drink before nausea hits. I decided to give this shake a try. Just milk and the powder mix. It is smooth! It has also brought my nausea to a stop. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I would have bought this sooner if I had know about this product. I will be buying more ❤”

Love it!

“Love this product. Great way to add nutrition into your diet while pregnant. Whether you’re eating well, barely at all (1st trimester) or craving unhealthy things (you know, pregnancy). So easy to add to milk, or make a smoothie with other fruit. The creamy strawberry is delicious.Feels great to know I’m getting all the vitamins and nutrients I need.”

Delicious!

“Bought this for my wife, and now we're hooked! I say we, because it is so good that I always make a little extra for her so I can have some too. It tastes like a strawberry milkshake! No chalky unpleasantness at all. My wife is pretty picky about such things, and I was worried it would end up sitting on the shelf next to bags of shake we've tried in the past... but, she asks me to make her one every day and I'm back on here ordering more. Thanks Baby Booster!!”
