A little about our host:
Meg is a Masters qualified Clinical Nutritionist (BHSc NutDMed & MHumNut) and currently undertaking her thesis is postpartum depression. She specialises in maternal (particularly postpartum/breastfeeding) and early childhood nutrition.
She has one daughter & a newly arrived son- so has first-hand experience on the importance of nourishing food throughout motherhood. Meg is super excited to pass her knowledge and support to the mamas in this group, so they too can enjoy the life-changing, beautiful journey that is motherhood.
