Live webinar: Friday, February 21, 2025 at 2 p.m. EST
Maintaining good nutrition during pregnancy is critically important for both mom and baby. Dietitians may be called upon to assist during a high-risk pregnancy or when mom has a complex medical history that requires tailored nutrition intervention. Join us for a review of nutritional needs during pregnancy with a focus on managing health conditions during this life stage. We’ll discuss gestational diabetes, pregnancy after bariatric surgery, hyperemesis gravidarum, and more.
Please note: CPEU credit will be granted for live attendees only.
