What we choose to put in our bodies each day can have a big impact on how we feel physically, emotionally, and mentally. It’s not about being perfect or following strict rules – it’s about small, manageable choices that add up and support your recovery over time.

During pregnancy, our bodies are depleted of essential vitamins and minerals. Then, in the depths of grief, it’s common (and completely understandable) to reach for beige, carby, cheesy comfort foods. They bring warmth in the moment- but not always the lasting nourishment we truly need.

The good news is: nutrition doesn’t have to be complicated.

Yes, there’s a lot of noise out there. Loads of advice. Lots of “shoulds” and “don’ts.” But sometimes, what we really need is just a bloody recipe – something simple, tasty, and good for us, without the overwhelm.

So here you go, lads. We’ve got you covered.

Some gentle tips to make nutrition feel easier right now:

  • Keep it simple. You don’t need to reinvent your diet. Focus on adding more good stuff in, rather than restricting.
  • Batch cook when you have the energy. Make double portions so you can freeze a meal for the days you just can’t.
  • Hydrate! It’s easy to forget, but drinking more water can massively boost how you feel.
  • Snack smart. Keep things like nuts, fruit, hummus, or boiled eggs handy for quick, nourishing fuel.
  • Don’t aim for perfection. You’re doing your best – and that’s more than enough.

Here’s to fuelling your recovery – one meal at a time.

“I have never felt more connected on a deeper level emotionally, more understood, validated, and respected than with this amazing group of women who sadly like myself have been through the shittest time with fertility/baby loss. “
