1 in 7 women will experience peripartum or post partum anxiety depression or a combination.

As a nation we like to dismiss these symptoms as adjustment period when in reality they're likely due to the lack of support and care.

As a bonus to my childbirth education course I'm offering a 30 minute support person class zoom meeting where grandparents,friends and family discuss the roles we can play to reduce our loved ones risk or catch it earlier with compassion!

During my classes we work on comfort measures,just like any new skill coping requires practice!

True story I felt ridiculous practicing with our first baby however I powered through the feelings and was able to use these exact comfort measures to deliver 7 babies all natural.

Not a super human just super prepared!

Goodmorning mama's
Let's talk folate!Our bodies need this beautiful nutrient to grow healthy brains,however if you aren't taking a whole food supplement you are getting a synthetic substitute.

Foods rich in folate are listed below!read your cereal labels and bread a good healthy choice will have it in there!

I won't judge you for junk cereal I'm a coco puffs girl,however balance is everything in growing a human.

What is your favorite option to get your folate in?

Sunday greetings from the home!
I hope your Season so far has been wonderful!

It has been a blessing to be working towards an awesome homebirth and get to know local midwives and our community better.

I'm excited to go live this week and share some of what's going on over here at Heart of the Matter and our home!

How have you been preparing for your Christmas season or birth(or both!)?

Blessings,
Anna

Why a doula?Do you catch the baby?So you're like it's a luxury right?I don't need one if I have a c-section,epidural,hospital birth.

These are a few things I hear daily, a blog is coming but here are a few answers.

Why a doula?We have read more books on the body and lactation and mental care than you have even seen.we have knowledge and experience to walk with you and your birth partner.

I am not here to catch anybody,I'm here to support your mental and physical space while you deliver with your chosen provider.

Knowledge and safety ARE NOT a luxury,everyone should have the change to utilize a doula and minimize unnecessary intervention and complications.

Doulas serve every birth regardless of how and where your baby is brought here IT IS birth!
We are communication providers when needed we stay with mom while dad goes to the NICU or gets some rest,eats,we help with positing changes and so much more.

Every family should have someone to walk with them and serve them during this time.
