Well I’m here to tell you, evidence shows your cervix isn’t a crystal ball and actually performs much better when left alone 🙌🏼

"We are meant to feel safe, protected, held, and loved. Knowing the intimate and miraculous design of birth brings peace. A place to rest in Christ’s peace and love. When we are held, we can surrender to the beautiful design as we draw close to God and birth new life. Birth is precious, intimate, and raw" -Graceful Roots Doula

Have you heard about Red Raspberry leaf tea to help strengthen and tone your uterus for birth?

🌻I drank a cup of this tea every day from 36 weeks on and feel it really helped me have strong productive contractions when actually in active labor and so have many other women! 🙌🏼
