A yogurt parfait is an excellent pregnancy snack, A yogurt parfait is an excellent pregnancy snack, providing protein, calcium, and probiotics from the yogurt, plus vitamins and fiber from added fruit and granola. For a balanced and nutrient-dense parfait, layer Greek yogurt with fresh berries or other favorite fruits, and top with a sprinkle of granola or nuts. 

How to make a healthy parfait:
Base: Start with a Greek yogurt base for a higher protein content.
Fruits: Add fresh, chopped fruit like berries, peaches, or bananas for vitamins, antioxidants, and natural sweetness.
Crunch: Include a handful of granola or a sprinkle of nuts like almonds for added texture and healthy fats.
Sweetener (optional): Drizzle with a small amount of honey or maple syrup if you prefer more sweetness.
Extra Boost (optional): Mix in seeds like chia or flax seeds for added fiber & omega-3s. 

Benefits of a parfait for pregnancy:
Protein: Greek yogurt is a great source of protein, which is essential for your and your baby's growth.
Calcium: Yogurt is rich in calcium, which helps build strong bones and teeth for your baby.
Probiotics: Yogurt contains probiotics that can help support a healthy digestive system and potentially relieve pregnancy-related constipation.
Vitamins and Minerals: The combination of yogurt, fruit, and nuts provides a variety of vitamins, including B vitamins, vitamin C, and folate, as well as minerals like magnesium. 

Happy National Parfait Day! Enjoy, Mamas!

Welcome to the World, Little One! I've had the pr Welcome to the World, Little One!

I've had the privilege of supporting this beautiful babe's mama throughout her pregnancies. She is a two-time member of the 4% Club. This was her second breech babe. Approximately 3-4% of full-term babies present breech, which means they are head up and feet or bottom down. We tried everything to flip this lil guy: Spinning Babies exercises and stretches, chiropractic, Dancing for Birth classes, physiologic lifestyle changes to promote optimal positioning (like forward leaning exercises, pelvic openers, birth ball bouncing, massage, etc.) You name it, we tried it!

He was snug as a bug and breech was his position of choice. So, we regrouped and rallied around our breech babe. While a cesarean birth was not her first choice, she surrendered to her body in ways she did not plan. Her strength and grace are beautiful examples of remaining soft enough to bend, yet not break.

As a birth doula, I am grateful to Kootenai Health for honoring all births, all mothers, and all ways that babies choose to enter the world. Together we make a difference!

Welcome to the World, Ezra Lewis! You are fiercely loved!!

Hiring a birth doula can help you and your partner Hiring a birth doula can help you and your partner navigate your pregnancy, labor, and childbirth with knowledge and informed consent. Knowing what is happening in the room and how to respond is critical to achieving the birth of your choice.

A birth doula is an extra set of eyes, another caring pair of hands, and a knowledgable source of information and education. I will not make any decisions for you, but I will be sure that you understand your choices. My skillset includes evidence based knowledge, the wisdom of over three decades of motherhood, and the personal experience of natural, physiologic birth. 

I am a @donaintl birth doula, @gentlebirthofficial educator, @dancing_for_birth instructor, mama to six, and grandmother to eight.

I will hold space for you, your birthing desires, and your partner's needs.

An unmedicated, natural physiologic birth is possi An unmedicated, natural physiologic birth is possible, Mama!

Physiologic birth is a birth that proceeds naturally without unnecessary medical intervention. This approach prioritizes the body's innate ability to labor and give birth, with a focus on supporting natural processes and fostering early bonding.

Let's be real. A female's body will change more in Let's be real. A female's body will change more in 9 months than a male's body will in his lifetime. Let that sink in!

Along with those changes comes a lot of body fluids. lol

How do you tell if your water broke??
1. If you experience a sudden release of fluid, or even a slow leak, it could be your waters breaking,
2. Some feel a distinct popping sensation.
3. If your water has indeed broken, there will be a slow continuous flow.

If you have concerns or questions, call your care provider. They'll be happy to help you!

I am a doula. It's my desire to help you prepare f I am a doula. It's my desire to help you prepare for your birth in mind, body, and spirit. 

Preparing for birth is as much a brain train as it is a body conditioning. Coping mechanisms and reduced pain perception lead to a more positive birth experience for both parents. Movement is an incredible comfort measure and it creates space, allowing for optimal fetal positioning. These are holistic, evidence-based approaches that empower individuals with skills for birth and beyond. 

Choose a Gentle Birth workshop to prepare for a positive birth experience by focusing on mental wellness and stress reduction alongside physical preparation through techniques like mindfulness, hypnosis, and sports psychology. These classes aim to empower you with tools to manage fear and pain, help you communicate effectively with your birth partner and medical team, and promote a more physiological and less traumatic birth experience. This "brain training" approach combines evidence-based methods to reduce stress and pain perception, and there's even an app for ongoing practice.
 @gentlebirthofficial GentleBirth 

Choosing Dancing For Birth™ classes is beneficial because the it teaches specific movements that promote optimal fetal positioning, which can lead to a shorter and easier birth. These classes help with labor pain management, reduce the need for pain medication, and lower the cesarean rate for participants. Additionally, they offer physical fitness, emotional and physical support for both prenatal and postpartum mothers, and create a strong community of support.
 @dancing_for_birth  Dancing For Birth 

Together GentleBirth and Dancing for Birth are an amazing combination of evidence-based tools, including mindfulness, sports psychology, hypnosis, optimal positioning, gentle movement, and support to help reduce fear and anxiety during pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
