6 weeks of Blair ✨💗

Can’t believe we’re already at the 6 week mark!

Despite her chill personality, this little lady has stirred up quite a bite of chaos 🤪

I was induced on 7/31 (3 days after due date) and she was born 8lbs 4oz (almost 2lbs more than Lily!) at 4:11am on 8/1 with her cord around her neck AND gripping it with her hand, resulting in brief hypoxia and the need for immediate NICU care.

She spent her first 3 days in the NICU getting amazing care, weaning off her breathing and feeding tubes and getting IV antibiotics for a potential infection.

Then the day after she came home, my blood pressure skyrocketed and I was readmitted (with her in tow) for postpartum pre-eclampsia.

We spent another 5 days together in the hospital while they got my blood pressure under control and we finally all got to go home just in time for the first set of grandparents to come visit.

The beautiful chaos has continued since then with a comical amount of health hiccups shared between the 4 of us at home:

🤢The stomach bug
🍈Mastitis
😩A kidney stone (and another ER visit)
🤧A cold

🥰 And also so much delicious food, love and support from friends, family, and our amazing doula’s and night nurses to make it all manageable!

Lily has been the best big sister, smothering Blair with love and affection, helping out where she can, always washing her hands (and making sure everyone else does too), and already trying to play dress up with her 😂

We’re all easing back into a bit more of a routine, a little more sleep, and more time outside with some cooler temps finally hitting LA.

Here for any questions you have about her birth, my postpartum recovery, and everything in between! 🥰

xoxo,
Anna

Your thyroid issues might be coming from your gut…

As with all body systems, the gut is intricately linked to and influential on thyroid function 🤓

That’s why I always look to the gut when a client comes to me with suspected or diagnosed thyroid imbalances like Hashimoto’s.

Here’s what I look for on a GI MAP to support your thyroid ⬇️

👀 Low stomach acid (often from H. Pylori)
👀 Low beneficial bacteria
👀 Elevated inflammatory bacteria
👀 Low immune function (via low SigA)
👀 Leaky gut (which can trigger Hashimoto’s)

If your gut is inflamed, sluggish, or imbalanced, your thyroid will struggle to function optimally, even if your labs look “normal.”

And let’s be honest, that “normal” thyroid lab is probably just TSH so you’re not even getting the full picture of your thyroid function!

And then eat these gut-healthy foods for a better mood today 🥰

As a Functional Dietitian focused on gut + hormone health, I have to talk about the food-mood connection 💩🧠

Your gut and brain are constantly communicating via the gut-brain axis — and up to 95% of serotonin (your feel-good neurotransmitter) is made in the gut 🤯

That means what you eat impacts not just your digestion...but how you feel.

Here are some of my favorite foods to feed your gut and support a brighter mood 👇🏼

🫐 Blueberries – Rich in polyphenols + antioxidants that support your gut microbiome and reduce inflammation (which helps regulate mood + focus)

🥣 Oats – Packed with prebiotic fiber to feed good gut bugs + keep blood sugar stable for calm, steady energy

🥛 Fermented dairy – Yogurt + kefir provide probiotics to support serotonin production (I like full-fat, plain Greek with berries + walnuts)

🍫 Dark chocolate – High in compounds that boost endorphins + serotonin (aim for 70%+)

🥜 Nuts – A powerful combo of fiber, healthy fats, magnesium + zinc to reduce stress and support mental clarity

🐟 Salmon – Full of vitamin D + Omega-3s, both linked to lower levels of depression

🥬 Leafy greens – Loaded with folate, a B-vitamin essential for neurotransmitter production (yes, even in smoothies!)
