It’s just easier and I got more sleep at night! When you breastfeed, it is always available to your baby, whether that’s a feed in the middle of the night, or in the middle of a road trip. When baby lets you know she’s hungry, you have a supply of perfectly-warmed milk, in adequate supply, with no waiting time required. 2. Money Saving Breastmilk is created by your body and only dependent on the food and water you consume, it costs nothing. Compared to the cost of formula alone, you could pay upwards of $3,000+ a year, not to mention bottles and other needed equipment. 3. Nutritional quality Not only is breastmilk balanced and perfect for all ba...

Pregnant or not, it’s important to strive to get the highest nutrition we can in our daily food. Even small changes can be beneficial. While there is no such thing as perfect, the following are some guidelines to help give direction in your food choices. What foods you should eat depends on a few things, including how healthy you are, how much you exercise and how much weight your midwife recommends you gain during your pregnancy. Generally, we recommend you consume 60-80g protein daily, and 90-150g carbs daily, from a variety of sources. Consider all of this as a guideline, not something written in stone, as everyone’s specific nutritional needs vary. We recommend being carb-conscious, choosing the best sources to get these nutrients, as carbohydrates are good for energy, and baby’s growth and brain development. Foods to Eat  Abundantly You should base your diet on these real, unprocessed foods. Meat: grass-fed is best •beef •lamb •pork •chicken •turkey •wil...

Labors of Love Midwifery 1622 East North Street, Suite 8A Greenville, SC 29607 864-285-0574 By definition, the word prodromal means the symptoms one experiences before the onset of the actual condition. During pregnancy, prodromal labor will include symptoms of labor (ex: mild to strong contractions) that unfortunately aren’t progressing into a active, productive labor pattern or significantly dilating the cervix. What Does Prodromal Labor feel like? Unlike Braxton Hicks contractions that most women experience during the latter half of pregnancy, which are generally mild, irregular, sometimes on only one part of the uterus, and do not become longer, stronger and closer together and  can be stopped by rest, sleep, hydration and/or a warm bath or shower prodromal labor contractions feel more like labor contractions – they’re stronger and can’t be stopped by rest, sleep, hydration and/or a warm bath or shower. Prodromal labor contractions can be painful, in fact we often see pain...
