This blog explains why the concept of following wake windows alone is flawed & helps you understand how to better manage your child's sleep.

Officially 4 weeks postpartum with baby number 5! Our surprise gender tubal reversal baby is a BOY! Mason showed up on his due date weighing in at 9 lbs 1 oz and 21.5 inches long. He is soooo sweet and squishy, and a redhead like mommy!

I already miss all my clients but happy to be taking this season of life to focus only on family. Its truly been a blessing serving East TN for the last 10 years!

It’s been a while since I have posted. Life gets busy as a full time birth doula, mom of 4, and wife. 😅 It has been SUCH a busy year filled with dozens of births, placentas, and childbirth classes, as well as my own TTC journey! As some of you already know, we are expecting baby #5 in June! We are super excited and cannot wait to welcome this sweet little one. For my family, I am taking a couple of years off from births and teaching childbirth classes. BUT, I will continue taking placenta encapsulation clients again starting September 1st, but only in limited numbers per month. 🤗

Welcome to the world, little one. As the sun rose this morning, this little girl decided today must be her birthday, a little earlier than expected. Despite some unexpected twists, we are so grateful for the safest and best outcome for this beautiful new family!
