Weekly Pregnancy Meal Plan (100g Protein Per Day!)
Happy Saturday Friends! Last week you all seemed to love my post where I documented a full week of nourishing pregnancy meals. I thought I’d do another!
Now let’s dive into what I ate this week at 23 weeks pregnant. Something to note is that this week my appetite was lower than normal due to some pesky nausea. Some days I ate more, some days I ate less. I also found I didn’t have an appetite until much later in the day most days. I didn’t stress too much about this, and as you can see at the end of the week it all seemed to balance out.
HOW I’M HAVING A HEALTHY PREGNANCY:
As a quick reminder, here’s a brief outline of my full wellness protocol I have in place for this pregnancy:
real whole foods aiming for between 1500 - 1800 calories per day (my normal maintenance calories is 1400)
100 grams protein minimum (you’ll see below that most days I easily get more!)
aiming for min. 72 oz water per day, but hoping to get in 100 oz!
min. 30 minutes walking per day (this can be outside or on the walking pad)
30 minutes strength training 4 x per week (using two 10lb dumbbells and this specific pregnancy safe workout routine)
Here’s what i ate while pregnant this week:

Just a quick reminder, you can see my first week of pregnancy meals in this blog post.
