The Kind Mama: A Simple Guide to Supercharged Fertility, a Radiant Pregnancy, a Sweeter Birth, and a Healthier, More Beautiful Beginning

When did making babies get to be so hard? Infertility is on the rise globally, affecting as many as one in six couples. But instead of considering diet and lifestyle factors, doctors pump their patients full of expensive and invasive fertility treatments. Once pregnant, women just accept that carrying a baby will be the gassy, swollen, irritable, sleepless nightmare that has become the new normal—and then assume that new motherhood will be just as challenging, from breastfeeding woes to screaming fits.

It doesn’t have to be that way. In The Kind Mama, Alicia Silverstone has created a comprehensive and practical guide empowering women to take charge of their fertility, pregnancy, and first 6 months with baby. Drawing on her own experience, as well as that of obstetricians, midwives, nutritionists, holistic health counselors, and others, Silverstone offers advice on getting one’s “baby house” in order through nutrient-rocking foods that heal and nourish, and, once pregnant, gentle ways to boost comfort, energy, and health during each trimester. She helps readers navigate everything from prenatal testing and birth plans to successful breastfeeding and creating a supportive “baby nest.” The result is an authoritative, one-stop guide that empowers women to trust their instincts during this vital milestone, while helping them embark on a healthy and more vibrant path to motherhood.

Great support and advice for those going through fertility issues and for moms who are interested in breastfeeding and a more natural, kind, loving perspective on parenting. Overall, she is a mama that believes in connection and love for babies, which is beautiful. I…

    A lovely resource! After reading some of the strangely poor reviews of this book, I decided to write my own opinion on it to help those that might be confused about buying it. Buy it!! I found this book to be a great resource. I originally bought on Kindle & highlighted many pages & have since bought the actual book as well, to more easily flip to recipes. I love how Alicia mentions her favorite brands or resources for pretty much everything. She speaks about pre-conception and each trimester as well. The book is…

    KIND of practical book There was a lot of great ideas and suggestions in here…things I have never thought about for my health and that of my future baby. The recipes sound great, but a lot of the ingredients are ones that will need to be ordered online if you live in a small town without a Whole Foods or Sprouts. She definitely does everything possible to help her son be happy and healthy, and doesn’t care what other people think. For many people her ideas will be extreme. I’m pretty open to being as natural as…
