About me
Hi, I’m Aleisha
Certified Fertility & Prenatal Dietitian & Mum
I have been a dietitian for over 5 years, but it was through my own personal experience with infertility & the overwhelm and uncertainty that came with starting a family that I decided to up skill and specialise in nutrition support for women during fertility, pregnancy and postpartum.
My mission as a certified fertility & prenatal dietitian is to help women just like you, nourish and thrive through fertility and motherhood with personalised nutrition support that cuts through the noise.
Instead of overwhelmed, uncertain & confused, I want you to feel confident and empowered, and I want your body to feel nourished and strong as you embark on your motherhood journey
Our story & where my passion for fertility & prenatal nutrition started
I thought getting pregnant was going to be easy. I had it all planned out in my head how it was going to go.
We would start trying after our wedding & we would fall quickly. I remember the innocence and excitement thinking about creating a little human that was half me and half my husband but as the months went on, this excitement & our dream of having a family felt like it was getting further and further away.
So many things didn’t go to plan. An autoimmune thyroid diagnosis early on put our journey on hold for 8 months, this was then followed by more negative cycles, more testing and finally an endometriosis diagnosis which gave us some answers and some hope that after surgery our baby wasn’t too far away.
4 months after surgery we were feeling defeated and made the decision to register for IVF, 2 months later on our our last cycle before we were to start IVF, we were pregnant & 9 months later we got to bring our baby girl home safely.
Now, as we try to grow our family and give our girl a sibling, we have been through two pregnancy losses and are now pregnant for the third time, hopeful to bring another baby home in March.
