It’s a massive no for us. This whole thing regarding the exposure is absolutely horrific and many moms are feeling the same way. It was under our noses so much of the time. I’m not sure when they started adding these things to their packaging and social media marketing, but these types of insinuations on baby products is absurd and appalling. You will not find them ever in our boutique.

Interestingly, months ago we were going to have a collaboration with them to have some of their items in our birth boutique here at the Genesis, but it ended up not working out.
Now, I’m very glad that is the case.

Did you hear about this going on? What are your thoughts?

Your body does not send you into labor empty-handed. 🤝🙌🏼

As contractions build, your brain releases powerful endorphins — your body’s own pain-relieving hormones.
The intensity rises… and so does your internal support system. You aren’t just feeling stronger waves — you are being given stronger coping chemistry to meet them, with every contraction.

That “labor land” feeling?
The inward focus.
The way time blurs.
The deep, instinctive sounds.

That’s not you losing control, that’s your body protecting you.

Pain in labor isn’t punishment; purposeful. When paired with oxytocin — your love hormone — your body creates a powerful rhythm of pressure and relief designed to bring your baby into your arms!

Fear is loud, but physiology is faithful. We always tell mamas, if your goal is natural birth, it’s important to recognize the conditioning that’s happened around birth in Hollywood movies, shows, commercials etc. Women are always shown looking absolutely miserable - with excruciating panic- but we don’t ever see women who are grounded and confident in what their body is doing.

You were created with a built-in system for this. With preparation, support, and a safe environment, your body knows how to rise to the moment 🤌

You CAN do this, your body was truly made for it!

If your lady is going to be giving birth soon 🤰and you’d love to know a few tips on how to verbally support her in labor, this reel is for you!

▫️Here are 5 things partners can say during natural birth that actually help—and don’t make her want to scream 😅

(aka: what to say instead of “just relax babe”)

1. “You’re not doing this wrong. This is exactly what labor looks like.”
Labor gets loud, intense, primal. Reassure her that what she’s feeling and doing is normal and purposeful. Please, do not say anything remotely close to “shhh” or “quiet down a bit” no matter how gentle. Birth sometimes is raw and loud.

2. “I’m right here. You don’t have to go anywhere alone.”

Presence > fixing. We’ll say it again- presence is better than fixing.
This grounds her nervous system and helps oxytocin keep flowing. 🌬️

3. “Your body knows how to do this. I trust it—and I trust YOU.”
Confidence from a partner can literally shift labor forward. Doubt can stall it.

4. “This wave has a beginning, a peak, and an end. I’ll breathe with you through it.”
Instead of telling her to relax, join her. Breathe slow and low so her body mirrors yours.

5. “Every surge is bringing our baby closer. You are SO strong.”
Reframes pain as progress—absolutely huge for unmedicated birth when the mind leads the body. 😌

✨ Partner tip:
If you’re talking at her, pause.
If you’re breathing with her, you’re doing it right.

Ladies, send this to your support person who will be your rock during labor! 💛

If conception is taking a bit longer than you planned or hoped, you’re NOT alone, and I’m going to meet you right where you are in this caption without shame or anxiety, only education and support. 👇🏼💛

My name is Lindsay Lambeth, and I’m a midwife here at the Genesis Resort for Birth in Roanoke!

As a midwife, my mission is to provide empowering, family-centered, and evidence-based care. For years I’ve walked alongside women through some of the most transformative moments of their lives, first as a labor and delivery nurse and lactation specialist, and then as a midwife. I consider it such an honor!

After facing our own infertility diagnosis ❤️‍🩹, I navigated the world of advanced fertility science, managed my grief, and kept my hopes up for 4 years…until we welcomed our daughter.
I believe our diagnosis was a wake-up call for me to dig deep into my own overall wellness.

Pre-conception is something I’m DEEPLY passionate about, and I personally carry the understanding of the depth and intricacies of emotions that comes with building a family.

I am thrilled to share that I am launching the first FREE preconception workshop in-person class at the Genesis Resort! 🌿
I will walk you through evidence based foundations of fertility from metabolic health and hormone balance, to s***m optimization and cycle charting.

Whether you’re managing PCOS, wanting to improve lifestyle habits, or simply hoping to conceive with confidence, this class provides the clarity and action steps you’ve been looking for.

You’ll leave with a personalized road map to support:
✨ Hormone balance
✨ Improved ovulation
✨ Better metabolic health
✨ Stress resilience
✨ Healthier s***m + egg quality
✨ Confidence in understanding your fertile window.

This class is perfect for individuals or couples hoping to conceive in the next 2–18 months.

The class will be Monday, February 2nd @ 5p!

If this is your first birth — or your first time trusting your body with physiological birth — this is for you 👇🏼

Your body already knows how to give birth.
You don’t have to memorize techniques or “do it perfectly.” Labor unfolds one wave at a time — and your body leads the way.

🤍 Pain and discomfort in labor isn’t danger — it’s information.
Each contraction has a purpose: opening, moving, bringing your baby closer. Pain rises, peaks, and passes — just like the waves themselves.

🤍 Fear slows birth. Safety moves it forward.
Bright lights, unfamiliar faces, and feeling watched can interrupt labor hormones. Privacy, calm, and trusted support help your body soften and open.

🤍 Your body creates its own relief.
Endorphins rise in labor — often HIGHER than during intense athletic events — helping you cope when you feel safe, supported, and unrushed.

🤍 You don’t have to be fearless — just supported!
Whether this is your first baby or a new kind of birth after medication, you are capable of more than you’ve been taught to believe.

If you’ve gone through natural birth, would you share a tip below that tremendously helped you through it? Let’s all help one another! 🌿👇🏼
