I am so excited to be expecting my 2nd child. I have been doing low carb so long that is has been hard to modify my WOE. But I know I have to and want to make sure my baby is healthy.

Not sure what to add or modify? Any suggestions would really help! Thanks

Congratulations Kelly!

Like you, I had been eating this way a LONG time when I got pregnant so I was really apprehensive about reintroducing carbs...
Here is an article I wrote a few months ago re: this leap from *low-carb* to *lower-carb*:

http://www.lowcarbeating.com/article...&scat_name=Low Carbing and Medical Conditions&cat_num=22&cat_name=Low Carb Knowledge

Definitely read up on the glycemic index as this will help you tremendously with choosing WHICH carbs to reintroduce. An awesome book to get: The New Glucose Revolution by Jennie Brand-Miller, PhD., et., al.

I am right at 5 months now and I'm doing *pretty* well... struggled a LOT with nausea and strong food aversions early on and had to eat what I could stand.
I wish you a healthy, happy pregnancy!
