About us

At BabyBelly Nutrition, we believe in the power of science and that everyone deserves access to it. Our independent blog takes cutting-edge science and turns it into trusted nutrition advice before and during pregnancy.

Why the First 1000 Days matter

The First 1000 Days — from conception to your child’s 2nd birthday — offer a unique window of opportunity to shape lifelong health.

During this time, nutrition can even influence how our genes are expressed. This is called “Nutritional Programming.”

In my view, the First 1000 Days are one of the most powerful periods in life. Getting nutrition right before and during pregnancy can help set your child on a healthy metabolic path right from the start.

Is there a greater gift than giving your child a lifelong health advantage?

This project was created by me, Birgit, and my daughter, Mia—not to make money, but to support and empower women, especially those without easy access to essential health information.

Trusted nutrition advice before and during pregnancy

With over 30 years of experience in maternal and early childhood nutrition, I’ve seen how important it is to make science easy to understand.

I hold a Master’s in Nutrition and have worked as a Communication Strategist for leading agencies and the food industry, translating complex science into simple, practical advice.

Mia, a talented young art director, designed the website and developed the social media pages for BabyBelly Nutrition.

Together, we’re using our skills to help women everywhere make informed choices about their health and their babies’ futures.
