How to Prepare for Pregnancy Mentally & Physically
Originally launched as a webinar, this week Integrative Wellness Radio is giving you an episode on how to prepare for pregnancy. Dr. Nicole and her guest discuss the best nutrients to facilitate fertility, how you may need to detox before “trying”, and the all too common topic of infertility. Dr. Nicole explains the potential root causes of infertility & how mentally preparing for pregnancy is just as important as preparing for it physically. This episode debunks some of the widespread misinformation around pregnancy and gives you an inside look at Dr. Nicole’s very own pregnancy.
