It’s coming!!!! But before we officially launch I’m getting a ton of questions from readers who just can’t wait! Today’s questions is from Jessie who asks: “What is a good supplement routine right after giving birth?” . Great question!! There will be a comprehensive list in Baby Making and Beyond but here are my top hit list: - prenatal (seeking health is my fave) - fatty acids with phospholipids (learn why in BMB) - if your calcium intake is low consider a cal/mag/d/k2 supplement like genestra brand vanilla liquid - quality probiotic - arnica pellets to aid in tissue healing Anything on top of that would be really specific and based on your own unique needs. Remember, rest and good nutrition, like you’ll find in our BMB core 4 recommendations are often the very best medicine ❤️

Pretty much as good as it gets. Good to be home in the mountains where my heart feels most full. Cheers to the simple life and a little writing break 😎 #babymakingandbeyond

Making lemonade out of a pile of lemons... thanks @happy4herb for the reminder that the vulnerability we as bloggers experience by sharing our story helps others. If even just one person can feel more ease in their own journey, that makes the challenges I’ve experienced even more profound ❤️ . . “Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.” ~ Dr Brené Brown . Have courage all of you #hypothalamicamenorrhea warriors. You are strong and beautiful and it does get better, I promise. #healthyisthenewskinny
