While the world celebrated “the month of love”, and with Valentine’s Day being a highlight on the calendar, we at BabyYumYum.com decided to celebrate pregnancy and all the moms who are going through this incredible journey.
We hope you have seen and enjoyed our posts and articles themed “Celebrating the Bump“. This campaign amplifies Pregnancy Awareness Week, which took place from 3 to 7 February 2025. See some of the articles and videos we have published and share it with other parents who could benefit from the information. Take a moment to read the love letters our community dedicated to their babies (perhaps have a tissue in hand, because these beautiful messages will pull on your heart strings).
I spoke to Kath Megaw, Clinical Paediatric Dietician about the importance of nutrition before, during and after pregnancy, and she shared practical advice on how to navigate everything from morning sickness to the postpartum and recovery stage. A special thanks to PregOmega Plus for partnering with us on these videos. Be sure to watch the videos and subscribe to our YouTube channel.
Thank you for being part of the BabyYumYum.com community – we appreciate you!
Rianette Leibowitz and the entire BabyYumYum Team!
