Well said John. Extremely well said. Additional suggestion to consider.
I would suggest an experienced holistic chiropractor/doctor during pregnancy and nursing. The chiro adjustments allow your nerve energy to flow freely, thus awakening your own "innate doctor" and enabling internal healing machinations to keep you and your baby in balance.
The keys are HOLISTIC and CHIROPRACTIC. If you are near the Cincinnati/Milford area, I can suggest a wonderful doctor.
If you are near Lexington, I can suggest the best chiropractor in the world [IMHO].
