Strong mama Kylie Walker

Tuesday, November 25th we got to welcome the newest member of our family into our lives. What a blessing it was to bring you earth side in the comfort of our home, surrounded by an amazing loving support system. We are all so grateful that you are here Leon. 🩵 Special thank you to With Woman Midwifery Service for being an amazing midwife, supporting us through our pregnancy, birth, and now postpartum. And a special thank you to Lydia R Eidenmiller for capturing all the raw moments of labor and birth! ♡

Rural hospitals are closing Labor & Delivery units… and everyone acts like moms will
“just figure it out.”

But babies don’t wait an extra hour so you can make it to the city.
Complications don’t pause because funding ran out.
Women shouldn’t be giving birth in cars, gas stations, or ERs with no OB staff.

We say we “support families,”
yet we shut down the very places that bring those families into the world.

You can’t claim to value life while making it harder and more dangerous to bring it into the world.

Small town moms deserve better than
“Sorry… hope you make it in time.”

The American College of Nurse-Midwives affirms acetaminophen, also commonly known as Tylenol, remains a safe and effective option for relieving pain and reducing fever during pregnancy when used as directed. Ongoing research and expert reviews continue to support its appropriate use, and pregnant individuals can feel confident using it in consultation with their midwife or other healthcare provider.

ACOG reaffirms the safety and benefits of acetaminophen use during pregnancy.
More than two decades of research have found no causal link between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability in children. Acetaminophen continues to be an important and safe option for managing pain and fever in pregnancy—conditions that can pose serious risks to pregnant patients and their fetuses if left untreated.

Starting on June 12, join us for a new online support group: Eating Disorder Support for Moms and Birthing People (Pregnancy to 4 Years Postpartum) đź’™

This virtual peer-led support group is designed for moms and birthing people in the perinatal period (from pregnancy up to 4 years after birth) who are currently experiencing or have experienced eating disorders. No formal diagnosis is required to join. We welcome individuals navigating all forms of disordered eating, including restrictive patterns, compensatory behaviors, overexercising, obsessive over food and body thoughts, rigid thoughts and beliefs around food and body, excessive concerns about health, compulsive body checking and weighing, constant food noise and distressing thoughts about body.

Whether you’re considering recovery or have been in recovery for some time, you are welcome here. Together, we share stories, resources, and encouragement—with the goal of reducing isolation and building hope. In this group, we will not share the details of eating disorder behaviors, share specific numbers (like weight), or make comparisons.

We recognize this group is during lunchtime and we encourage you to nourish yourself during this time. However, this is not a meal support group and we ask that you eat and drink off camera.
