Reminder: Your baby’s weight in utero cannot accurately be measured by ultrasound.

Ultrasound exams are notoriously inaccurate for predicting the weight of your baby 🚫 An ultrasound gives an estimate of the weight of your baby, but this estimate can be off a pound or more in either direction 😳 This estimation of fetal weight is often used as a push for induction or planned cesarean 🙅🏻‍♀️ […]

Did you know that a true knot of the umbilical cor Did you know that a true knot of the umbilical cord happens less than 2% of the time?

True knots normally form between 9 and 12 weeks because that is the period when the amniotic fluid level is very high.

There is also evidence that true knots can form during labor.

This happens when the umbilical cord loops or interweaves around itself as your baby moves in the womb.

As long as the knot isn’t too tight, blood flow and nutrients aren’t restricted, as shown in this photo ❤️

So many of my clients tell me they wish they knew So many of my clients tell me they wish they knew about pelvic floor therapy sooner.

Because of that, I think it’s important to show you the spectrum of conditions we treat in our office.

This is what my caseload looks like this week. While this list isn’t all encompassing, it paints a pretty good picture.

I hope that this shows you that you’re not alone. That common doesn’t mean normal. That you don’t have to suffer in silence. And most importantly, there are holistic, conservative care options available.

If you are dealing with any of the following, DM me. I got you ❤️

How many of you saw the report from the @ucberkele How many of you saw the report from the @ucberkeleyofficial that revealed that arsenic, lead and other toxic metals were found in tampons?

Honestly, I wasn’t at all shocked by this.

The truth is, most tampons contain an array of harsh chemicals including dioxides, furans, fragrance, pesticides, and bleach.

Nothing we’d want sitting in our super absorbent vaginal membranes 😐🚫

As a pelvic floor therapist, I have seen tampon use lead to tissue sensitivity and contribute to pelvic pain.

Not to mention, toxic shock syndrome, pH balance issues, and chronic BV and yeast infections…

I stopped using tampons almost entirely back in 2019 and prefer to bleed into organic cotton period underwear. My go-to brand is @shoplilova

If I do reach for a tampon, @our.cora is the only brand that I will use!

I’m curious, what products do you use and love? ❤️

Witnessing the deepest forms of love and admiratio Witnessing the deepest forms of love and admiration between partners is one of my favorite parts of birth work.

After all, for every soul we create, there is a soul that we felt a connection with first.

The one who helped us create life ❤️
