    My Go To Tea for Pregnancy & Postpartum

    As soon as we become pregnant we immediately feel this urge to consume as much water as possible. We lug around our 4805856 oz water bottle and make our millionth trip to the bathroom. It's the same in Postpartum - MUST. CONSUME. WATER. We feel an insatiable thirst, especially if you are choosing to breast/chest feed! I don't know about you but there were points in my pregnancy and early postpartum that I was just plain sick of drinking water. Limited caffeine (I still had my

    How Combo Feeding Saved My Breastfeeding

    Breastfeed or Formula feed? What about both?! Did you know that was a thing because I sure didn't! She first latched about an hour after she was born. What a strange and wonderful feeling that first time was. Such a relief I thought. I knew that breastfeeding was going to be hard, but I thought "Not us. It won't be *that* hard for us." Why I thought we were excluded was beyond me. It was about day 4? 5? 6? (that time is really fuzzy to me) that we had to give her her first bo

    What's the deal with Inductions??

    You're approaching your due date and everyone is asking you, texting you, asking your partner - Is there a baby yet? Depending on your pregnancy, where you're planning to give birth and your provider, the word induction may come up. Let us walk you through exactly what inductions are, when they come up in your talks with your provider and how to be prepared! Inducing labor (aka labor induction) is when your provider begins the labor process before your body spontaneously goes

    Summer Pregnancy Must Haves

    It’s all fun and games until the weather hits 80... suddenly your fingers and toes have doubled in size, your thighs are velcroed together, and you can’t tell if your underwear is soaked from sweat, discharge, or your own urine.

I'm in my second trimester and every time I step onto the mat it feels like a different practice. I've been practicing and teaching yoga for the past 10 y

We left Brooklyn 6 years ago with a young baby and moved to Beacon in the dead of winter. We were confident about our decision for the first week o

    Tale from a New Mama

    After 4 days of laboring and pushing at home for the homebirth I planned, I transferred to the hospital for a cesarean. Moon was cut from my womb and there will always be a scar where she once lived. My sore incision stretched and throbbed as I shifted around in the hospital bed trying to make her comfortable as she sucked at my breast. My body had been hers for the past 10 months but it felt truer when she latched onto me than ever before. Moon suckled for 5 hours straight t
