The first trimester often comes with more feelings than people expect, and not all of them are easy to name.

Your body is changing quickly, your mind is trying to catch up, and it can feel like everything is happening quietly and all at once.

Some days you might feel grounded and hopeful, and other days you might feel tired, unsure, or emotionally stretched, even if nothing looks different yet.

👉 None of those reactions is a sign that something is wrong. 👈

They are part of adjusting to a new season that asks a lot of you, physically and emotionally.

There is no timeline for how you are supposed to feel, and no single experience that defines what early pregnancy should look like. What matters most is having space to ask questions, to move at your own pace, and to feel supported as you settle into what’s changing.

Save this for a day when you need the reminder that what you’re experiencing is valid.

The way you’re supported during birth matters just as much as the outcome itself ❤️

Feeling encouraged, listened to, and steady through such an intense experience can shape how you remember your birth long after the day has passed.

It is when care is rooted in trust and presence that it creates space for confidence to grow, even in moments that feel unfamiliar or overwhelming.

If you’re pregnant or planning for a future pregnancy and want to learn more about what supportive, relationship-centered midwifery care can look like, send a message at 408-337-2830 or reach out to start the conversation.

Proudly serving Morgan Hill, Los Gatos, and the Greater Santa Clara County — including all of Silicon Valley! From Campbell and Willow Glen to Palo Alto, Fremont, Gilroy, Hollister, and San Jose, we’re here for all your needs across the Bay Area.

Not pregnancy.
Not birth.
Not the decisions you haven’t even reached yet.

You’re allowed to learn in layers.
Some things will make sense right away. Others won’t, until later.

And in the meantime, you’re allowed to change your mind.
New information changes things. So does experience.

You’re allowed to ask the same question more than once, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

There’s NO rush to have it all figured out.
Just take it one step, one conversation, one moment at a time.

Castor oil comes up a lot in labor conversations, often shared as a “natural way to get things going.”

But like many things passed along online or through word of mouth, it deserves a closer look.

While some research suggests castor oil MAY help labor start for certain people, it also commonly causes side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Starting labor already exhausted or dehydrated isn’t something pleasant for the mama.

That's why our recommendation is to always have a conversation with your midwife rather than rely on one-size-fits-all advice.

After all, what works, what’s safe, and what’s appropriate can look very different depending on your body, your pregnancy, and where you are in the process.

If you’re hearing about castor oil (or any labor technique) and wondering whether it’s right for you, bring it up. Questions are always welcome, and informed decisions start with good information.

Midwives only helping during home births couldn’t be more wrong.

Midwives support births in a variety of settings, including birth centers, hospitals, and homes, depending on the midwife’s credentials, the pregnancy, and the family’s preferences.

Midwifery care involves:

💙 evidence-based prenatal care
💙 longer, relationship-focused appointments
💙 education that helps you make informed decisions
💙 advocacy and collaboration with medical teams when needed
💙 support that continues into postpartum

Many families choose midwives because they want care that centers communication, trust, and whole-person support (Whether they plan a hospital birth, a birth center experience, or are still figuring out what feels right)

If you’ve been curious about midwifery care but assumed it “wasn’t for you,” this is your invitation to learn more and ask questions without pressure.

Schedule a consult with our team to see if midwifery care is the right fit for you.

Black women aren’t at higher risk because of genetics, they’re at higher risk because of systems.

In the United States, Black women are 3x more likely to die during childbirth than white women.

This disparity isn’t rooted in biology. It’s rooted in how care is delivered, whose concerns are taken seriously, and how quickly support is provided when something feels wrong.

Too often, Black women are dismissed, overmedicated, or denied timely, respectful care. These patterns are well-documented, and they come with real consequences. What makes this even harder to accept is that many of these outcomes are preventable.

There is a better way.

Midwifery-led models of care, including birth centers, focus on relationship-based, evidence-informed care. They prioritize listening, continuity, advocacy, and respect...factors that are consistently associated with better outcomes and safer births, especially for communities that have been historically underserved.

There is no need to place the blame here, but we do need to start naming the problem that clearly change is possible for. Awareness is a starting point, and understanding how different care models impact outcomes matters.

📍 At Casa Natal, we are committed to providing safe, inclusive, and respectful care for all birthing people.
