Month: November 2019

Early in pregnancy, if women have started experiencing some morning (or all day) sickness and are eating foods that are really different to what they usually eat, many of my patients begin to worry about their baby’s health.
Many of my patients spend months (or sometimes years) being really focused on their prenatal nutrition, then only to find that during the first trimester they just can’t stomach the same foods. The amount of white toast and vegemite or potato chips that women consume during a couple of weeks of their pregnancy is sometimes way more that they’ve consumed in the 5 years previous!
While natural medicine, relaxation, nutritional therapy or herbal medicine can help with nausea there are still many of my patients that eat whatever they can eat during those weeks.
If you are finding that you’re eating really differently take comfort in knowing that everything that you’ve been doing during that preconception phase is definitely going to be helping your baby. The turning on (and off) of genes that can happen during pregnancy is also influenced by what you did before baby was conceived. So if for a short period of time through your pregnancy you eat foods that aren’t your usual foods, you just eat them because they settle your tummy, know that you’ve still set your baby up for good long term health.
If you can tolerate vitamin supplements, maybe we can look at increasing those right now, but if they’re not going (or staying) down either, then we can work on how to nourish you as best as we can right now and then work on enhancing your nutrient intake again as soon as you feel better.
The wisdom of your baby is amazing and it’s going to be doing all it can right now to keep baby healthy and developing well. .

#TBT for my husband’s birthday!! My man turns 24 today but our story started way back when he was 14 and I was 17. We were such babies!! 😭

We have been through so much together these past 9+ years and I can finally say that the love of my life is also the father of my child ❤❤❤ David is so amazing with kids and I cannot wait to see him raise our little one(s)! 👪

Tomorrow is my first ultrasound and I am both beyond excited and beyond nervous. No matter what though, my husband will be by my side every step of this pregnancy and I am so grateful he’s mine 💕

What we did/were taking the cycle we conceived 😁❤ This is just what we did and our experience, please know that this is in no way a “do this and you’ll get pregnant” tutorial 👌🏻 Also, this is the accumulation of a few months of doing the same thing- no magical switch that flipped once I made these changes!! ❤

A while back I switched to @pinkstork prenatals (won in a giveaway by @ardenmcartrette ) since the ones I had been taking made my pee super fluorescent yellow😱 I don’t know if it was a dye (since the pills were yellow) or an absorption issue from taking too many pills at once, but either way I switched over and also split up my pills between morning and evening- I got one of those little organizers to set up a week’s worth at a time 👍🏻

I started getting more serious about seed cycling for the past 2-3 months, hoping for a bit of a hormonal boost and tbh since I had that crazy light period before i conceived I’m thinking maybe it really did something!! No way to know for sure though 🤷‍♀️
.
.
And finally I had just started wearing my @avawomen bracelet, gifted to me by @tivfsjourney when it told us that I was ovulating about 3 days before we expected!!! 😲 I don’t know if some of the other changes shifted my ovulation earlier or what, but I am so thankful I got the heads up!! Plus, it was way easier than BBT and OPKs, just putting a bracelet on to go to bed!😍

I tried to put a bunch of info into my pictures above so please swipe through for more and feel free to ask any questions you may have about supplements or seed cycling or anything ttc related really!! ❤❤❤
