Nurture the Seed

Editing + Project Consulting
Written by Renee Jennings and Georgia Gregory
Design by Annamul
Self-published 2022

Pregnancy is a joyous time, but it can also be hugely confusing with conflicting information about what to eat and what not to eat to nurture your growing bub. Renee and Georgia have taken the guesswork out of pregnancy nutrition with their much-needed handbook on eating well during preconception, pregnancy and beyond. They are a trusted source with backgrounds in dietetics and journalism and have included substantial current research to back up their writing around pregnancy and nutrition. As well as chapters including which nutrients mum-to-be should aim to include/boost in their diet, how to have a healthy pregnancy on a veg or vegan diet, hurdles to nutrition and preparing for pregnancy, the book also contains an extensive chapter full of practical, delicious and easy-to-make (or eat, one-handed) recipes.

The best projects often come up when you least expect them and this one has felt extremely personal to me. I was contacted by Renee and Georgia at the tail end of my first pregnancy and the book has grown as I entered my first year of motherhood.

As well as editing, I have given Renee and Georgia lots of advice on the ins and outs of the publishing world, self-publishing and consulted with them on the content, look and tone of the book. A must-have for any mammas to be!
