This is not a sorry for your loss message, ive been there.
This is a 'thank you for my gain'.
I must thank for reaching out me when this happened. For opening my eyes to the knowledge of genetics.
I thank our first son, Sprout, for allowing us to have Bodhi and Sonny. I thank him for paving a path for me to grow in so many ways I never knew possible.
From loss comes life.
As a mum, oh my! There is parts of me I would never have known about. There is so much love and happiness in me everyday...... and also anger, frustration, sadness... the emotions can be overwhelming.
As a naturopath I am now studying nutrigenetics. It is so amazing to see how nutrition and lifestyle can support the body at such a core level.
Many people have heard of the MTHFR gene, which I have. In children, this can present as ADHD and autism, they may have chromosome birth defects, cleft palate, tounge tie. A mother may have multiple miscarriage... plus more
Pregnant mothers with this gene should take folate, and forms of this.... NOT folic acid...
But... this is not the only gene, we have around 20,000! They all work together and make us who we are.
Nerodiversity is on a huge increase, we all have some form, I believe. Could this be down to our environment and genes?
Im on journey to find out.
