1 year ago today I married this man right here 🤍

Life would be so dull without you, my Chulo. You make every day brighter, funnier, and fuller in all the best ways.

For those who don’t know, Robert and I chose Las Vegas for our wedding in honor of his grandparents — it was one of their absolute favorite places. His grandparents were so special to him and his family, and when his grandma passed unexpectedly a few years ago, we wished she could’ve been there with us. So we thought, what better way to feel her presence than to celebrate our love in a place she loved so much?

And we truly felt her spirit with us that day. 🕊️✨

Our first dance was to Samba Pa Ti— and every time we hear it, it takes us right back to that moment. 🩷

Happy aniversario, my love — one year down, forever to go 💍❤️

✨ Here’s a little sighting of some of the IE midwives gathering for peer support, in our natural habitat 🫶🏽

This is what keeps us going! Our work is not easy when done alone, and I feel so lucky to be surrounded by such amazing women who are walking this path alongside me. 💜

And of course, we improvised with whatever we had on hand 😅 — because if you gather a group of midwives to talk birth, you better believe we want visuals so we can see what was happening! Lol. As soon as Joselle started sharing, she grabbed the nearest props: a mini baby and pelvis. Hehe ✨

For those who may not know: peer review is actually a required part of our licensing guidelines. Everything we discuss is always HIPAA compliant, and these gatherings are such an important way we continue sharpening our skills, learning from each other, and ensuring families get the very best care. 🌿

✨ I had the privilege of expanding my hands-on skills this past week! ✨

Bodywork is such an important part of my care as a midwife. I integrate it into my homebirth care and also offer individual sessions outside of midwifery care.

Supporting the pregnant body through bodywork can bring so many benefits—it not only creates more space for labor to unfold the way it needs to, but also gives relief to the body while it’s at work growing and sustaining your baby. 🌸

I’m so grateful for the community of mentors who continue to pour into me, and a special thank you to Jamie and Tianna .tobloom for holding such a powerful container for us birthworkers. I’m excited to weave everything I’ve learned into my sessions moving forward! 🌿💆🏽‍♀️✨🌿💆🏽‍♀️✨

Another year around the Sun ! WOW what beautiful growth and blessings.

This year I’m keeping it simple, enjoying my day today with , reflection journaling 33 lessons I’ve learned this year and some much needed quiet time of rest today as it’s been a busy last week with all the sweet baby’s arriving earth side ❤️

WELCOME EARTH-SIDE SWEET BABY BOY

A bundle of peace, a whisper of joy.
Your mommy and daddy walked hand in hand,
With love in their hearts and a thoughtful plan.
They trusted the rhythm, they breathed through the tide,
Surrendered with grace, with me by their side.
And in the stillness of home, without fear or alarm,
You arrived so gently, straight into mom’s arms.
No rush, no noise — just love in the air,
A sacred moment beyond all compare.
Their dream fulfilled in the calmest of ways,
A birth bathed in strength, in light, and in praise.
What an honor, what a gift to stand so near,
To witness your journey into love, into here.

Softly Returning to Myself 🤍

Meditation has been my anchor lately — helping me slow down, reconnect, and meet myself with more love and gentleness. In the quiet, I’ve been finding peace, clarity, and a deeper sense of connection with who I am and the work I do.

For the past couple of months, prioritizing meditation, morning stretches, and prayer has helped ease my anxiety, deepen my self-awareness, and allowed me to show up in the world with more love and intention.

Each photo holds an affirmation that’s been guiding me through this season of rest and healing. ✨

Happy Mother’s Day
Feliz Día de la Madre

Spent yesterday in quiet meditation—healing for myself, for my family, and for all the beautiful families I’ve had the honor to care for. Today, I’m sending love and healing light to all the mamas. Wishing you peace, strength, and grace as you continue to walk your path!

Sending all my love

Importance of Hydration in Pregnancy:

Staying hydrated is essential, especially during pregnancy, to support the body’s physiological changes.

Benefits for Baby: Water helps transport nutrients to the baby and flushes out toxins.

Preventing UTIs: Drinking plenty of water helps dilute urine, which reduces the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) by flushing out harmful bacteria.

Dehydration Risks: Dehydration can lead to serious complications, including hypertension, preterm labor, and other cardiovascular problems.

Amniotic Fluid: Water helps replenish amniotic fluid, which is critical for the baby’s protection. About a cup of water is needed per hour for fluid replenishment.

Increased Blood Volume: The body’s blood volume doubles by 26-28wks requiring more water to avoid complications like thick blood and hypertension.

Preventing Preterm Labor: Dehydration is a primary cause of premature labor, but sufficient hydration can help prevent or stop it.

Daily Hydration Goal: Aim for at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water daily or half your body weight in ounces (in addition to other fluids and food recommendations).

Benefits of Drinking Water:

💧 Reduced sodium levels
💧Lower risk of preterm labor and miscarriage
💧Better bowel movements
💧Help with morning sickness

Tips to Drink More Water:

💧 Carry a water bottle everywhere.
💧Set a timer or use a reminder to drink.
💧Drink a glass of water with protein snacks every 3 hours.
💧Fill a gallon jug or several containers with your daily water goal and track your intake.

Remember, water is your best friend during this special time. Enjoy this simple yet effective recipe for extra hydration, and give your body the nourishment it deserves. Cheers to a healthy, hydrated pregnancy!
