Healing Your Birth Trauma Through Forgiveness

Healing Your Birth Trauma Through Forgiveness

January of this year marks 8 years since I gave in to having a scheduled c-section. This was something I didn’t want and, to be honest, I didn’t think it was necessary, even with my daughter being breech. See, my OBGYN had criticized me, belittled me, and just plain torn me down throughout my entire pregnancy, including pushing the topic of a c-section from 4 months on.

Have you ever looked back at these moments and realized how you were being stretched to move into something new?


It’s funny because we are all on a journey and we are all called to do something great with our time here on earth. Yes, all of us! For some it takes........

Prenatal Vitamins - Folate vs Folic Acid

This week I wanted to share some of what I have learned about folate and folic acid. If you are trying to conceive or pregnant chances are you have been taking a prenatal vitamin for some time now. Does that vitamin have folate (methylfolate) or folic acid?


Does it make a difference? I’ll let you be the one to decide for yourself, by all means look this up and do your own research. Here is a hint though, one is natural and the other is synthetic…..
