On World Diabetes Day, we bring attention to the unique challenges of gestational diabetes.
Managing blood sugar during pregnancy is vital for both maternal and infant health—and emotional support plays an important role too. Anxiety, stress, and guilt around diagnosis are common, and you’re not alone.

Mariposa is here to support emotional well-being for expectant parents navigating gestational diabetes or any perinatal health concern.

Kindness supports connection, belonging, and emotional wellness.
Studies show that kind acts improve social connection and can lessen symptoms of anxiety and depression.

🌸 During Diabetes Education Week, Mariposa Perinatal Services is highlighting gestational diabetes, which affects up to 1 in 10 pregnancies.

Pregnancy and the postpartum period can increase a woman’s risk for stroke due to changes in blood pressure, clotting, and circulation. Conditions such as preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, and diabetes can further raise this risk.

This World Stroke Day, we encourage all expectant and new mothers to talk with their OB/GYN or primary care provider about stroke risk and prevention. Awareness, early assessment, and proactive care are key to protecting both mother and baby.

Strong bones support a strong body—today and for years to come. 💪

Did you know some people are more at risk for serious foodborne illnesses? Pregnant women, young children, older adults, and anyone with weakened immune systems should take extra care.

Follow these precautions:
⚠️ Avoid raw or undercooked animal products (meat, poultry, eggs, seafood)
⚠️ Be extra careful with unpasteurized dairy or juices
⚠️ Clean and sanitize often-touched surfaces and food prep tools
⚠️ Discard perishable foods left out too long (remember the 2-hour rule)

💡 If you or a loved one is in a high-risk group, talk to us about preventive care and strategies to stay safe from foodborne illnesses.
