The Messy Intersection explores the tangled-up place where a generation of parents seeks to raise body-confident intuitive eaters while simultaneously undoing decades of their own diet culture learnings. Guests share stories and insight about about feeding kids, feeding ourselves, intuitive eating, stress, anxiety, the mental load and raising kids with the resilience to defy diet culture and develop a healthy relationship with food. Hosted by registered dietitian Diana Rice, RD of @anti.diet.kids.

Andrea Paul, a registered dietitian specializing in intuitive eating, joins us on The Messy Intersection this week to discuss intuitive eating in pregnancy.
Andera was 27 weeks pregnant with her first child at the time of recording and discusses how, even as a person well-rooted in her food choices, she struggled at times throughout her pregnancy with the messages about food she received.
We discuss:
- The role that food and vitamins play in the process of getting pregnant.
- Navigating morning sickness and how to nourish your body (and your baby) when you don't want to eat.
- Understanding feelings of guilt when you start to think you're not nourishing your baby in the best way possible.
- Embracing food aversions.
- Reconciling what our providers tell us about nutrition vs. listening to our bodies.
- Making food choices when certain foods are "off limits" in pregnancy.
- Whether pregnancy cravings may be women finally listening to their bodies and food preferences without the influence of diet culture.
- How our providers may also be influenced by diet culture messages and how to make food choices that are right for us.
- Reframing the concept of "flunking" the gestational diabetes test.
- What intuitive eating is all about and how to learn more.
