"I cried into a bowl of plain rice at 10 weeks pregnant because I was too nauseous to cook anything else. That moment is why I now share morning sickness dinner ideas, what to eat while pregnant when nothing sounds good, and simple pregnancy meal plans. You deserve better — and I promise, it can be easier than you think."Maya Hart, founder & mom of two
The Person Behind the Posts
Hi, I'm Maya Hart.
I'm a mom of two, a former marketing professional, and the founder of HomeBumpMeals. After a surprise gestational diabetes diagnosis, I turned my tiny kitchen into a test lab for pregnancy healthy recipes and diet for pregnancy that actually work. I've completed a prenatal nutrition certification and work with a Registered Dietitian who reviews every recipe — so you get good foods for pregnancy without the confusion.
