Trouble sleeping? Lavender oil, chamomile tea, and a magnesium bath are great ways to help fight insomnia during pregnancy.
As for ashwagandha and velarian root, there is not enough research to say whether it’s safe or not.
Remember to always check with your P*P taking anything ❤️

What to Take When: Sleep Edition

Having trouble winding down? Here’s how to naturally support deep, restful sleep (and what to avoid combining) 😴

Valerian Root –
➕ Pairs well with: Magnesium, chamomile, lemon balm.
🚫 Avoid combining with: Prescription sleep meds, alcohol, or other sedatives.

Magnesium –
➕ Pairs well with: Valerian root, GABA, or a gentle nighttime tea.
🚫 Avoid combining with: High-dose calcium or zinc supplements right before bed (they can compete for absorption).

🌱 Ashwagandha –
➕ Pairs well with: Magnesium or chamomile for a balanced, relaxed effect.
🚫 Avoid combining with: Thyroid medication, sedatives, or alcohol; it can intensify drowsiness or interfere with absorption.

✨ Tip: Always start with one supplement at a time to see how your body responds, especially when combining natural products! Sleep well 🛌

Breastfeeding has been linked to a lower risk of breast and ovarian cancer. It reduces lifetime exposure to estrogen, delays ovulation, and promotes healthy breast cell differentiation, all factors that work together to help protect against cancer. The longer a parent breastfeeds, the greater the protective effect. -La Leche League USA

Did you know? Yes, low risk elective inductions, you can go home if it’s not working!!!
As long as your amniotic sacs (waters) are not broke, you can absolutely go back home and come back later when your body is ready.

Navigating parenting can be challenging at times, but you are capable. If you feel like you need help, consider reaching out to family, friends, or community partners.
Tip: creating a postpartum plan can help ease you into parenthood. Consider a meal train, someone to help with household chores, and people you can call and can rely on for emotional support.

Well there’s always new firsts… but I wasn’t expecting this one 😳
I was just asked this morning at a birth if I was the grandma! Uh… I mean, I literally just had my 41st birthday but didn’t think I looked like a grandmother yet 😆
Bless!
Well, happy birthday sweet baby girl! She came in at a solid 9lbs8oz of pure love ❤️

Hey mama and soon to me moms, did you know about this? Every week they walk the trail. Light cardio and getting outdoors is one of the best things you can do for pregnancy and postpartum. Going for outdoor walks, especially with other women, can increase the good hormones in our bodies and can kick those baby blues.

It's cold and rainy in the morning 😔We will see you next week!
