### 5/5 — So useful during pregnancy!

*2026-06-19, version 3.9*

I had so many questions during my first pregnancy but the library provided very useful information. I could find the answers to my questions quickly. Many recipes, meal plan ideas and resources for all the many questions we might have when pregnant. Ryann provides amazing information and everything is research based

### 3/5 — Needs UI improvements

*2026-05-31, version 3.9*

The app is a great idea, it has a lot of helpful information and most of the recipes are pretty solid however, I am really frustrated with the making your meal plan portion of it. While I was originally really excited for this feature, I feel like it is a huge flop. If you want to rearrange or switch out your recipes for the week, it takes at least 45 minutes due to the lag time because you’re unable to select which meals you want. You have to click refresh and are randomly given a new one so you have to continually click through the meals until you get the one you want.

### 3/5 — Great information but slow

*2026-05-27, version 3.9*

I love the idea of this app. Most of the recipes are great and actually seem like food I want to eat while pregnant. The main issue I have is how slow the app performs. It takes 30 seconds or longer to “like” a recipe or load a page. It loses my attention quickly and I get frustrated often. Another issue I have is that I’m unable to customize my own meal plan. It chooses the meals for you, and allows you to “refresh” if you don’t like one of the chosen recipes. But you are unable to select your favorited recipes and add them to specific days. I cancelled after one month of paying because I honestly don’t think it’s worth the $20/month.

### 5/5 — What can I eat?

*2026-03-10, version 3.7*

The TPNL app is an incredible resource for anyone navigating pregnancy nutrition. It takes the overwhelm out of what can I eat? and replaces it with clear, evidence-based guidance. As a labor and delivery nurse, I love seeing tools like this that empower families to feel confident in supporting their health and their baby’s development. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Great resource!

*2026-03-09, version 3.7*

The library is a great resource for when I just need some guidance on what food is safe, how much I should eat, basic nutrition facts, etc. Saves me from many a confusing Google search! I trust Ryann and the team to provide up-to-date, evidence-based info on ingredients, products, and prenatal nutrition. Definitely worth having on my phone!

### 5/5 — Best pregnancy app

*2026-03-09, version 3.7*

I used this app before, during, and after my first pregnancy and I continue to use it through miscarriage and trying to convince again. The advice and articles are great and I love how she is constantly updating it with new things. The new update and layout is also super user friendly

### 5/5 — Valuable resource!

*2026-03-02, version 3.7*

Love having a quick access to accurate information. I love being able to have an up to date resource to look up particular foods, drinks, suggestions for a healthy prenatal or pregnancy period!

### 5/5 — Highly recommend!!

*2026-02-23, version 3.7*

Looking for nutrition support with TTC, pregnant, or postpartum? This is it!! Has everything you need. Easy recipes, searchable, and you can chat with dietitians even.

### 5/5 — Excellent library

*2025-12-11, version 3.6*

Excellent resources for pregnancy. Meal plans, Q&As, discussion forums

### 5/5 — The most helpful!

*2025-11-21, version 3.6*

As a first time mom, this was the MOST helpful resource for me during pregnancy and post partum. I’ve recommended it to all my new mom friends. It’s a must have resource that makes prenatal nutrition so easy instead of scary!
