How will you know when it's time to push?

Your body will tell you when it’s time to push 🤍
In a natural, non-medicated birth, pushing isn’t something you’re told to do — it’s something that happens instinctively. An overwhelming urge, deep pressure, your body bearing down on its own… you won’t have to guess.
No counting. No forcing. Just following your body as it takes over.
Trust the process. Trust yourself. You were made for this ✨

👖✨ When’s the Best Time to Buy Maternity Clothes? ✨👖
There’s no exact week — it’s all about comfort! 💕
Most people start around 12–16 weeks, when jeans feel snug and waistbands start digging in.

Here’s how you’ll know it’s time:
🌸 You’re living in leggings
🌸 You’re unbuttoning your pants after lunch 😅
🌸 Bras feel tight
🌸 You just want to breathe and move freely
Start with comfy basics — maternity jeans, leggings, and a few soft tops. A supportive bra is always worth it. 🙌
Remember: you don’t have to wait.
When your body changes, your wardrobe can too. Dress for your comfort, your curves, and this incredible new chapter. 🤍

Small Business Saturday matters more than people realize.
When you choose any small business…. whether it’s a midwife, a doula, a massage therapist, a chiropractor, a yoga instructor, or the little coffee shop down the street, you’re literally keeping someone’s lights on. You’re putting food on someone’s table. You’re making it possible for their children to be involved in extra curricular activities. You’re helping parents build their dreams 🌻
If you want to support a small business today, here are a few things that go a long way and cost nothing:
• Like, comment, or share their posts
• Leave a Google review
• Tell a friend about them
• Save their content for later
• Tag them when you recommend them
• Engage with their stories/reels (it boosts them, annoying but true)
And if you’ve used our services, thank you. Truly. Small businesses feel every single win.
Thanks for being part of our community. 💛

🌸 Let’s Talk About Vaginal Tears 🌸
They’re common, normal, and nothing to be ashamed of. 💕
About 7 in 10 first-time vaginal births involve some degree of tearing — and most heal beautifully.
Here’s what to know 👇
💫 1st degree: Small, often no stitches needed
💫 2nd degree: Deeper into muscle, a few stitches
💫 3rd–4th degree: Involve a**l muscles — rarer, need surgical repair
✨ Ways to support your body:
Perineal massage before birth
Warm compresses during pushing
Slow, controlled breathing
Upright or side-lying positions
Gentle postpartum care (peri bottle, sitz baths, rest)
Your body knows how to heal. 🌷
Give it grace, patience, and care.

🌿 What’s a VBAC? 🌿
VBAC stands for Vaginal Birth After Cesarean — and yes, it’s possible for many birthing people! 💪✨
Choosing a VBAC can mean:
💫 A shorter recovery
💫 Fewer surgical risks
💫 A more active, connected birth experience
But it’s not without considerations — like the rare (but serious) risk of uterine rupture. That’s why VBACs are best done where immediate surgical care is available and with a supportive birth team. 🏥🤍
The key? Informed choice.
Every birth — vaginal, cesarean, or VBAC — is powerful when you feel safe, supported, and respected. 🌸

🌿 Placenta Art: Honoring the Tree of Life 🌿
Your placenta is more than an organ — it’s the lifeline that nourished your baby and connected you for
Placenta art is a beautiful way to honor that journey — creating prints, resin keepsakes, or umbilical cord shapes that capture its “tree of life” design. 🌳✨
Whether you frame a print, preserve a cord in resin, or simply admire its natural beauty, this art celebrates connection, birth, and transformation. 💖

If you create your own:
🧤 Use gloves + clean tools
🎨 Choose plant-based inks or natural pigments
❄️ Keep it refrigerated until use
A powerful, personal keepsake — made from the very thing that made life possible. 🌸

🌸 Placenta Encapsulation: What to Know Postpartum 🌸
Some new parents swear by it for more energy, better mood, and milk supply — but what does the science say?

🧬 What it is: Your placenta is steamed, dehydrated, and turned into capsules after birth.
💊 The claims: More energy, balanced hormones, boosted milk supply.
📚 The facts: Research hasn’t proven real benefits — and there are safety concerns (like bacterial contamination & hormone unpredictability).

💡 If you’re curious:
✔️ Use a certified, hygienic provider
✔️ Avoid raw prep
✔️ Talk to your doctor (especially if GBS+ or high risk)
✨ Your recovery, your choice — just make it an informed one.

⚡️ What Is “Lightning Crotch”? ⚡️
That sudden zap or shooting pain down low during late pregnancy? Yep — that’s lightning crotch 😅
It happens when baby moves lower + presses on pelvic nerves (usually in the 3rd trimester). Totally common, just… not very fun 😬

💫 Try this for relief:
Change positions or move gently
Do hip circles on your birth ball
Take a warm bath or use a heating pad (low)
Wear a belly support band

🚨 Call your provider if pain is constant, severe, or paired with bleeding or fluid leakage.
Your body’s just getting ready for baby’s big debut 💕
