Have you heard about Red Raspberry leaf tea to help strengthen and tone your uterus for birth? I drank a cup of this tea every day from 36 weeks on and feel it really helped me have strong productive contractions when actually in active labor and so have many other women! #redraspberryleaftea #redraspberryleaf #36weeks #pregnancy #naturalbirth #tonibraxtoncontractions #doula #evidencebasedbirth #birthdoula #oklahoma #OKMoms #eastok #wilburton #oklahomacity #magnesium #potassium #iron #bvitamins #healthypregnancy

Did you know that you will likely go into labor on your own after your water breaks? It used to be more common to wait, but here in the US most women get induced once their water breaks. In fact, I had to get these statistics from New Zealand! Waiting, otherwise known as expectant management can be an option provided there are no infections or fever and you maintain strict hygiene (I.e no exams, no tampons, changing pads frequently, no baths, etc.). Pregnant wo...men will continue to make amniotic fluid, so staying well hydrated is important. Thank you Paula Skelton, Midwife @kiwifamilies for making this information available. #FunFacts #SundayStats #makemoreamnioticfluid #neverdrybirth #Yourbodyworkswell #NOEXAMS #expectantmanagement #midwiferycare #birthstreambabyof2020 #birthstreambabyofeveryyear See more

Well visits are important, but hopefully they are fully serving you. Do you know what that could look like?
