Calling all mamas who want an easier, more vibrant pregnancy and a smoother postpartum recovery!
What if you could have more energy and reduce your uncomfortable pregnancy symptoms even if you haven’t been able to get off the couch in five weeks?
Hi, Friend.
Have you had a day like this recently?
You wake up in the morning with the worst nausea but also a feeling of debilitating fatigue.
Desperate for some quick relief, you head to the kitchen to find some food that will ease your pain.
Unsure of what food will help you feel better, you grab some of your kids’ crackers to get something in your system.
All you want to do is crawl back in bed but you look at the clock and notice that it’s just barely 7am.
You panic, wondering where you're going to find the energy you need to go to work OR look after your toddler.
You frantically search Google for home remedies or something that will help, but soon fall into an endless search cycle.
When you ask for advice on how to manage your pesky pregnancy symptoms, all you hear is that nausea, fatigue, constipation, heartburn, etc. are normal symptoms of being pregnant.
It’s almost like people are saying, “I dealt with it, now it’s your turn!”
During your prenatal visits, you try to ask for advice but are told “Eat well and take a daily prenatal” or “Those symptoms will go away in the next trimester”.
But let’s be real - you don’t have time to wait for your symptoms to *hopefully* get better.
You need help as quickly as possible because you have a life full of people who are depending on you.
Whether you have a pre-existing health concern or you’re someone who refuses to accept the status quo, you’re eager to make this pregnancy different.
You’re determined to find a way to reduce your symptoms and actually enjoy your pregnancy!
You’re so thankful to be pregnant and want to watch your baby grow with joy and excitement.
You want to cherish these moments with your toddler before they go from being an only child to a big sibling.
You want to finish up everything at work so that when your maternity leave comes, you’re able to just be a mama and snuggle your healthy baby.
You wholeheartedly believe that there is a way to make all of this possible.
After working as a prenatal nutritionist, I’ve realized that there are three reasons why most pregnant women struggle to overcome their symptoms:
01
Many pregnant women don’t get the nutrition that they need
Research shows that over ⅔ of pregnant women in the United States aren’t consuming enough protein during their pregnancy. Many pregnant women are also not meeting their vitamin & mineral needs, which are essential for a mama looking to reduce her symptoms.
02
Prenatal visits are not set up to give you the highly individualized care that you deserve
While these visits are highly important, they’re not capable of offering you the time and the space you need to look into the nutritional requirements your body needs in order to properly support you and your baby during your pregnancy.
03
Each pregnancy is different and needs different treatments
A woman’s first, second, and third pregnancy can look vastly different from each other, meaning her plan of care needs to reflect exactly what she’s dealing with. And in order to find out the root cause of her symptoms, her entire health needs to be examined.
When a mama is working with someone who can offer that highly individualized care to address her health holistically, that’s when the symptoms will start to dial down.
And I’m passionate about making sure you receive that care.
Hi there!
I’m Elizabeth -
a prenatal nutrition expert and mom of 3 girls.
When I was pregnant with my first daughter, I noticed that there was a lot of important nutrition information that wasn’t shared with moms during their typical prenatal care.
So I dove head first into prenatal nutrition research and applied what I was learning during my second pregnancy - my twin pregnancy.
I didn’t feel great at the start of my pregnancy and dealt with my own symptoms (HELLO, nausea!), but implementing my research helped me:
Avoid prenatal health complications
Keep exercising until 37 weeks
Carry my twins until almost 39 weeks
After experiencing this success I knew I had to use my knowledge to help mamas like you optimize their nutrient intake and well-being.
Which is why I decided to whip up….
The Nourished Mama
The 10 week Virtual Nutrition + Wellness Program for pregnant mamas looking to minimize uncomfortable pregnancy symptoms, maximize their energy, and grow the healthiest baby possible.
By the time you pick out a name for your baby, you’ll learn how to….
Discover exactly what you need to nourish your body and your baby throughout your pregnancy and postpartum recovery
Tap into the energy you need to watch your 3 year old, show up to work each day, or whatever else life has in store for you
Create tasty, nutritious meals and snacks so that you can eat confidently, knowing that it nourishes supports your unique needs
Gain access to answers for your nutrition and health questions from a mom who’s been in your exact shoes
Tune into your inner wisdom to recognize what feels best when it comes to nutrition and lifestyle during your pregnancy
“I saw results. I became more knowledgeable about my own body’s needs and confident in my ability to not only carry but care for multiples.
Elizabeth was worth every penny we spent to give our babies and me the best chance at a healthy pregnancy and postpartum experience.
Elizabeth almost became like a counselor to me. I struggled with so many fears of being a twin mom - from being able to carry them to the energy I needed and so much more. She was there to support and help me through those fears more than she probably realized herself.
I have confidence this pregnancy thanks to the work I did with her.”
Krystle, Previous Nourished Mama Client

“My energy came back pretty quickly which helped mentally and emotionally since I still work part time and chase around an almost 3 year old! The nausea went away as well!
I haven’t experienced any reflux which I had very bad during my first pregnancy. I have more peace of mind about my own health after my baby is born.
I was very concerned about depletion after birth and working with Elizabeth, I know I am doing the best I can for my body to set myself up for success.”

Hi, I’m Elizabeth!
I’m a matcha obsessed, nature loving, prenatal nutrition expert AND mom to three girls.
I’m so glad you’re here!
When I was pregnant with my oldest daughter, I had a major humbling experience. Even with years of nutrition training and clinical experience, I wasn’t quite sure what nutrients would best fuel my pregnant body and support my baby’s development.
Naturally I was determined to find as much information as I could about optimal nutrition in pregnancy.
But when I started looking, I realized that there is so much nutrition information that isn’t shared with mamas during their routine prenatal care.
This got me really fired up.
Pregnancy is one of the most nutritionally demanding periods of our life spans - we need to know this stuff! We’re talking about growing humans here!
This was right around the time I was appointed to the Virginia Maternal Mortality Review Team.
During my time on this board, the interdisciplinary team and I developed interventions that aimed to improve pre- and post-natal support for new moms and reduce preventable maternal deaths.
That experience showed me how expecting mamas need and deserve much more support, education, and care.
And so, I created The Nourished Mama!
This program teaches you how to confidently nourish and care for your pregnant body so that you end up with a vibrant and energized pregnancy.
In fact, I used these exact Nourished Mama strategies during my second pregnancy, which happened to be a twin pregnancy.
I had less fatigue than during my single pregnancy, carried my twins to almost 39 weeks, birthed each twin vaginally, AND they each weighed over 7lbs.
(Not to mention a smoother postpartum recovery than my first pregnancy)
That’s why I’m passionate about helping pregnant mamas realize the power behind supporting their prenatal health, because I know firsthand how life changing it can be!
When you’re expecting, you’re nourishing TWO (or 3+) humans simultaneously. Meeting your needs and managing your symptoms takes intentional, consistent effort.
While that may seem overwhelming, here’s what I want every mama to know…
You don’t have to do it alone!
“Having the ability to message her was really helpful, being able to message her back and forth.
If there was something that I saw and wanted her advice on, I was able to get that information fast.”
- Krystle, Previous Nourished Mama Client

I’m ready to reduce my symptoms!
“I felt supported and encouraged. And I made it through my first trimester without any major symptoms.
I felt more confidence in the supplements she guided me to, changing from a prenatal I had been taking prior for example, and that I was doing everything to optimize a healthy pregnancy.
I thought I ate really well and might not need support/knew everything :) But I learned more specifics on pregnancy needs and micronutrients that are essential.
Overall, Elizabeth’s specificity with pregnancy, whole foods based approach, knowledge of current research, and being a mother of three (knowing the territory first hand) made me feel like I was in good, knowledgeable hands.”
- Rose, Previous Nourished Mama Client
I’m going to be honest with you…
Pregnancy is energy intensive. You’re literally growing a human (or humans) inside of you, and that takes SO much work. There are going to be times during your pregnancy where you don’t feel so great because of everything that your body is doing to grow your baby.
However…
Focusing on the right nutrients for you can make a HUGE difference.
It can mean having the energy to spend time with your toddler(s) instead of lacking energy to get off the couch.
It can mean showing up for work consistently instead of using up all of your sick time due to nausea.
It can mean enjoying your pregnancy instead of dreading the way it makes you feel.
Mamas are the backbone of a family – when we care for ourselves, there’s a ripple effect on others in our lives.
You have the power to give yourself, and your growing family, a precious gift.
Let’s work together and blaze a trail to your nourishment and the health of the next generation.
“My energy is back and I can’t stress how much that means to me.
The fatigue I was experiencing was more than I felt was normal from creating a baby. I couldn’t concentrate or make it through the morning. So my energy returning is HUGE!”
-Amy, Previous Nourished Mama Client
Friend, I see you
Beyond my knowledge and experience…
I’ve been where you are.
I know what it’s like to question everything, to wonder if you’re eating the “right” things or taking the right supplements, to wonder if it’s possible to not feel so dang tired.
You and your baby deserve individualized care and attention to address your nutritional needs that will reduce your symptoms.
Whether you find that relief in this program or not, I hope you always know:
You don’t have to do this alone.
- Elizabeth
