Pregnancy can be rough in many ways. No energy, not sleeping, aches and pains seem to be our best friends for 9 months. But there is so much we can do for ourselves to help our bodies expand and adapt to growing our little one inside of us! This healthy pregnancy breakfast smoothie is just one way I treat my body to the nutrients it needs while growing a life and without compromising taste.
This pregnancy breakfast smoothie also makes a great afternoon snack! And, while giving your body lots of healthy nutrients can also help decrease stretch marks, increase circulation, prevent constipation and more.
This is my blender that I use for all my smoothies. This blender is awesome, best in its price range for sure. I also use it to make soup, baby food and everything in between!
Healthy Pregnancy Breakfast Smoothie
Ingredients

1/2 C berries
1 Tbsp chia seeds (these little superfoods are high in omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, fiber, calcium, protein, and iron!)

Why did you chose to add collagen powder ?
Hi Evelyn, I try to make my smoothies (especially for the first trimester) packed with nutrients since a lot of moms struggle to keep nutrition in. Collagen is a protein that has amazing health benefits for you and baby so a smoothie is a perfect way to sneak it in. The collagen has amino acids that aren’t found in very many foods that are in our traditional diet and it is excellent for joint health, hair/nails/teeth, reduces stretch marks and cellulite, boosts metabolism and heals and boosts gut health. All of which can take a toll in pregnancy due to your growing body and weight gain, supporting to bodies, and excessive hormones! I hope that helps.
