If you're in that pregnancy phase where you feel STARVING all the time, or keeping food in your belly helps to stave off nausea, you should definitely eat before attending Om for Mom prenatal yoga and toning. But, you don't want to feel uncomfortable, sick, gassy or bloated, so make sure to allow at least an hour to an hour and a half for food to digest first. And of course, drink plenty of water with your snack. Here are few ideas that make a great pre-prenatal yoga snack, or anytime you're on the go, for that matter!
Hard Boiled Eggs – Good for you, and full of protein. For an extra health boost, buy the vegetarian fed, cage-free kind enriched with Omega-3 fatty acids.
Plain Instant Oatmeal-Buy the plain variety so you aren't consuming unnecessary processed sugars and mix in organic milk or soy milk instead of water for a calcium boost. Add in a handful of berries or bananas, and sprinkle with a pre-shaved walnuts or almonds for a filling and nutritious snack.
Turkey Sandwich-For a snack that's filling and easy on the stomach, try a turkey sandwich on a whole grain bread, with organic spinach and tomato. (Make sure you nuke the turkey for at least 30 seconds to kill off any bacteria that can accompany lunch meat).
