My hardest labor, my youngest, I don’t know if I could have done it without the water. It was a hard and swift birth of an almost 9 pound baby, with a nuchal hand. I thought my bones were breaking. The water was the only source of relief I had in those 6ish hours of labor.

The Birthing Pool Test by Michel Odent
When a woman enters the pool in hard labor, there is an immediate pain relief, and therefore an immediate reduction in the levels of stress hormones. Since stress hormones and oxytocin are antagonistic, the main short-term response is usually a peak of oxytocin and therefore a spectacular progress in the dilation.

Our new publication “Mothers Navigating Medication Use While Breastfeeding: A Pilot Project” (Balamari & Dr. Krutsch) is out now!

This project explores how mothers seek information and make decisions about using medications while breastfeeding. We highlight the challenges, knowledge gaps, and opportunities to better support families in navigating these important choices.

We’re proud to share this work and continue advocating for accessible, evidence-based lactation pharmacology resources.
