Hear about Greenwich Hospital’s Pregnancy, Exercise and Nutrition Initiative (PENI). Whether you are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant, this free forum will provide pertinent information to promote a healthy pregnancy and deliver a healthy baby. For instance, do you know that having a BMI (body mass index) over 30 puts a pregnant woman and her baby at risk? Hear from a doctor and a registered dietitian, and join in or observe some light resistance training exercise.
The speakers include Caroline Stella, MD, maternal-fetal medicine specialist/perinatologist; Liz Fraser, exercise physiologist; Danielle Magnus, registered dietitian; and Eileen Bryer, physical therapist.
The seminar is free and will take place on Thursday, March 9 from 6 to 7 p.m., in the Noble Conference Center at Greenwich Hospital, 5 Perryridge Rd. To register, call 888-357-2409 or visit greenwichhospital.org/events
