5.0 out of 5 stars Very good. Highly recommended for anyone who is or may at some point be pregnant. May 13 2013

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a really good overview of the basic nutrition required by any person at any time, with special emphasis on the needs of a pregnant and/or nursing woman.
It is a good read for anyone interested in increasing their knowledge of health and nutrition.

For "seasoned" vegans it doesn't quite offer anything new, but it is still worth reading because of the concise summary of basic nutrition, which will help when explaining to others how you get all of your nutrients as a vegan.

The recipes are pretty good, mainly because they're simple and are close to what non-vegans are used to eating. However, in my opinion, there are too many mock-meat dishes.

In short, the book is geared toward those new to veganism, or who want to start learning about vegan nutrition, but is valuable for just about anyone because of how straightforward the writing is.

I wish the same author would write the same kind of book about veganism in general.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Pregnant Vegans and Vegetarians Jan 25 2012
By SaraJane - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I absolutely loved this book. I have a few other books on general pregnancy and none of them really address vegetarianism or veganism. This book fills in the gaps. There are separate chapters for some of the more important nutrients that you need while pregnant. I love that the author explains why you need that particular nutrient and what's happening in your body that spawns an increased need for it. Then it goes into what foods you can get those things from naturally and there's a really helpful list at the end of each chapter that gives you some ideas of how to easily add a little bit of this or that to your food. Sometimes it's things like nutritional yeast or kelp flakes that you can just sprinkle on your food for a bit of extra nutrition.

There is some good information on how to deal with people who might have issue with you being vegan while pregnant. There are some great tips on how to respond to some of the comments you might get and what information you might want to share with people who are saying certain things. The end of the book even has some recipes, which could really be helpful if you're unsure of how to eat now that you're pregnant. I haven't made any of them, but I did look through them. All of the recipes look fairly simple and quick, which is a bonus when you're tired and you need to eat and don't really feel like making food.

I really can't recommend this book enough. If you're vegan or even just vegetarian, pregnant or thinking about becoming pregnant, you should definitely pick this up.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book!!! Jan 12 2012
By Athletic babe - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book guides you through ALL your pregnancy with amazing information. Fully loaded with nutrition tips, exercise, and month by month questions that arise during pregnancy and labor. Also has really good recipes :) I really appreciated the nutritional content of the book, so important when there are not many books on the market that talk about vegan nutrition for pregnant women. Thumbs up for The Everything Vegan Pregnancy Book!

3.0 out of 5 stars Average Product Jan 7 2013
By Kate Brinkley - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having read the Everything Vegan Cookbook, I was disappointed to find that the recipes were largely the same and that very little of the information was vegan specific. It felt like they took a few chapters from What to Expect When You are Expecting and their previous vegan cooking materials to publish a new book.

It would be a good start if you know nothing about pregnancy or about vegan cooking, but otherwise I would recommend finding other sources.
