Many women face health issues during their pregnancy because they don't know how to nourish themselves accordingly. A book on diet and nutrition would help pregnant women learn about healthy eating choices and what they need to do differently during their pregnancy to properly nurture
themselves and their child. The book could also persuade them to continue to make healthier lifestyle choices once the baby arrives.
