Breastfeeding is more than just feeding: for many mothers, it becomes a deeply personal part of their journey through motherhood.

It can represent long nights, early mornings, bonding moments, challenges, growth, and nourishment. For some, the breastfeeding journey lasts months or years. For others, it may be shorter than expected. Either way, it often holds a lot of meaning.

Because of this, some moms choose to preserve a small amount of their breastmilk in jewelry as a way to honor that chapter of their lives.
Breastmilk jewelry can serve as a reminder of the connection, dedication, and care that went into nourishing their baby.

Every feeding journey looks different, but each one deserves to be honored in its own way.

If you’re interested in preserving your breastmilk in a piece of jewelry, I offer custom breastmilk jewelry services. Feel free to reach out for more information 🤍

When people imagine labor, they often picture what they’ve seen in movies or heard in dramatic birth stories. In reality, labor can look very different from what many expect.

Here are a few things that aren’t talked about enough before birth:

1. Labor often starts slowly.
Early labor can begin with mild or irregular contractions, back discomfort, or long pauses between waves. It may build gradually over many hours before active labor begins.

2. Movement can help during labor.
Walking, swaying, leaning forward, or changing positions can help some people cope with contractions and support the natural progression of labor. Many people find that movement feels more comfortable than staying in one position.

3. Labor isn’t always linear.
Contractions may slow down, space out, or change intensity before picking up again. This can be a normal part of the process and doesn’t always mean something is wrong.

Understanding what labor can realistically look like can help parents feel more prepared and confident heading into the experience.

If you're preparing for birth and want to learn more about what to expect, I offer childbirth education classes in person, group settings, and virtually.

Postpartum mental health is often talked about in terms of depression, but emotional changes after birth can show up in many different ways.

Some parents experience anxiety, racing thoughts, irritability, or feeling constantly overwhelmed. Others may struggle with sleep, emotional numbness, or feeling disconnected from themselves or their surroundings.

The postpartum period is a major physical, hormonal, and emotional transition. Adjusting to life with a new baby can bring a wide range of feelings, and many of them are more common than people realize.

Having support during this time can make a meaningful difference. Whether that support comes from loved ones, community, or trained professionals, no one should feel like they have to navigate postpartum challenges alone.

If you’re struggling after birth, reaching out for support is a strong and important step. 🤍

Six years of ABCS. 🥹🤧🩷🤎✨

Six years ago, ABCS started as something I created to pour into my passion on the side while I settled into the career I thought I was meant to have for 20 years.
That slowly became the very thing pulling at my heart, and that hobby turned into full blown passion. That passion turned into my full-time career.

Thank you to every single family who has trusted me during one of the most intimate, vulnerable seasons of your lives. It is never something I take lightly. You all hold such a special place in my heart.

Thank you for the milestone pictures, updates, and letting me watch your families grow. 🫶🏽

Thank you for supporting my business and believing in my vision.
Six years later, the purpose is the same, just REBRANDING!

We’ve pivoted.
We’ve expanded.
We’ve refined the vision.

Happy 6th Birthday, ABCS.
From set aside dream to full-time calling. ✨

Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles that support your bladder, uterus, and bowels. Pregnancy and birth, especially vaginal birth, stretch these muscles, and it’s common for them to feel different postpartum.

Some people notice:
• Urinary leakage
• A sense of heaviness or pressure
• Discomfort during s*x
• Difficulty engaging the muscles

These experiences are very common, and they’re also addressable. Pelvic floor therapists, gentle retraining, and awareness practices can help you rebuild strength, coordination, and comfort over time.

Your body went through a major physical event, and your pelvic health deserves attention and care too 🤍

In the early postpartum period, your milk doesn’t arrive fully formed, it transitions.

The first milk you make is called colostrum: a thick, yellowish, nutrient-dense fluid packed with antibodies and immune support for your baby. It’s small in volume, but powerful in protection and nourishment.

Around day 3–5, your milk changes toward what we call mature milk, more volume, different texture and color, and targeted nutrition as baby’s feeding needs increase.

If the changes feel confusing, that’s normal. This isn’t a problem or a “delay”, it’s your body responding to your baby’s needs.

Every step of the lactation journey matters, from first feed to full supply

There’s strong research showing that continuous support from a trained doula leads to better birth outcomes.

Women who receive doula support during labor are more likely to:
• Have shorter labors
• Experience fewer medical interventions
• Report higher satisfaction with their birth experience
• Use less pain medication
• Have lower rates of cesarean or instrumental delivery

This isn’t anecdote — it’s evidence from multiple systematic reviews and studies on supportive care during labor.

Doulas don’t make medical decisions — but the presence of continuous, consistent support does make measurable differences in how births unfold. Having someone who stays with you, understands your needs, and advocates for your preferences affects both experience and outcomes.

If you want support that’s informed, respectful, and rooted in evidence — that’s what a doula brings to your birth team 🤍

Your body has carried, grown, and birthed life, that’s a big physical and emotional journey.
Healing doesn’t happen in a day, a week, or even a month.

But every step, every moment of rest, nourishment, and support, helps your body remember how to heal.

You deserve time, patience, and care. Your healing doesn’t need to be rushed. 🤍

02/25/2026

Postpartum emotional health is just as important as physical healing, and research shows doula support really matters.

Women who receive doula support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum have significantly lower rates of postpartum depression and anxiety, feel more confident, less overwhelmed, and better connected emotionally.

A doula doesn’t replace clinical help, but she provides continuous emotional support, active listening, and reassurance just when it matters most. That kind of care can reduce stress, increase confidence, and help you feel more grounded during a time that feels huge and intense.

If you’ve ever felt alone in postpartum emotions, you’re not. Support that nurtures your mental well-being matters. 🤍

There’s a myth that breastfeeding is “natural” and “easy,” but the truth is feeding is a skill, for both parent and baby. Early challenges with milk supply, latch, or fatigue don’t mean you’re failing.

Doulas offer practical support, encouragement, and reassurance to help you navigate the early days, whether you’re breastfeeding, pumping, or combination feeding. This support can boost confidence, help with bonding, and increase feeding success.

Progress often looks different than we imagine. And that’s okay. 💛

Having a baby is one of the most intense experiences you’ll ever go through:
physically, emotionally, and mentally.

You don’t have to navigate it alone. A doula is there to:
• Provide continuous support during labor
• Offer physical comfort measures (positioning, counterpressure, breathing guidance)
• Protect the energy in the room and keep you centered
• Support your partner so they can participate confidently
• Help you process decisions and understand your options

Postpartum can feel just as overwhelming. Recovery, emotions, and learning to care for a newborn can be exhausting. Having someone there to check in, reassure, and provide guidance makes a real difference.

Support isn’t a luxury, it’s part of safe, empowered care.

You are allowed to ask for help, to take space, and to be supported through this transition 🤍

02/18/2026

When people ask what a doula does, they usually think I’m there to “deliver the baby.”

I’m not.

I’m there to support you.

A doula provides continuous emotional and physical support during labor. That means:

• Helping you stay grounded when things feel intense
• Offering comfort measures like position changes, counterpressure, breathing guidance
• Protecting the tone and energy of your space
• Supporting your partner so they feel confident and involved
• Helping you understand your options so you can make informed decisions

I don’t replace your provider.
I don’t make medical decisions.
I don’t take over.

I stay. I support. I advocate. I witness.

Birth is physical, but it’s also deeply emotional.
Having steady, uninterrupted support can make a profound difference in how you experience it.

You deserve to feel safe, heard, and supported in your birth space 🤍
