💥 Mamas— don't let your pediatrician tell you that skipping crawling is "normal."

Crawling isn’t just cute, it’s critical. It builds the brain, connects the hemispheres, boosts coordination, and sets the stage for everything from walking to writing ✍️

So if your little one scooted past this milestone, it might be worth a closer look. 👀
Because it could lead to more struggles later on— and “they’ll grow out of it” isn’t a developmental plan. 🗣️

No one really tells you how intense the hormone crash is after giving birth.

Within hours, your body goes from high doses of pregnancy hormones to almost none. It’s a free-fall—and for a lot of moms, it shows up as mood swings, anxiety, or feeling completely overwhelmed.

Placenta encapsulation isn’t magic. But for me, it softened the landing. I had fewer emotional dips, more energy, and a stronger sense of “okay… I can do this.” That was everything in those early days.

This is so cool! Some days I wish I was still lactating so I could help feed babies like this.

Alyse Ogletree, a 36-year-old from Flower Mound, Texas, has indeed set a new Guinness World Record by donating 2,645.58 liters of breast milk, surpassing her own 2014 record of 1,569.79 liters.

Her donations, primarily to the Mothers’ Milk Bank of North Texas, have helped nourish an estimated 350,000 premature babies, as each liter can feed approximately 11 preterm infants.

Ogletree began donating in 2010 after her first son, Kyle, was born and she noticed she was producing an unusually large amount of milk.

She continued donating after the births of her other sons, Kage and Kory, and as a surrogate mother.

Her dedication, supported by a strict pumping schedule, healthy diet, and hydration, highlights her commitment to helping others despite not having a medical condition to explain her overproduction.

She’s also donated to Tiny Treasures Milk Bank and friends, with an estimated total of over 126,000 ounces.

Her story inspires many to consider breast milk donation as a way to support fragile infants.

Honoring the Organ That Sustained My Baby

This might sound strange to say out loud—but I was in awe of my placenta.

That organ kept my baby alive for nine months. And then I was supposed to just toss it in a biohazard bin? That didn’t sit right with me.

Encapsulating my placenta was my way of honoring the full circle of birth. I’d just given everything to bring this child into the world. It felt good—powerful, even—to let my body give something back to me, too.

What Is Placenta Encapsulation?

If you’ve never heard of placenta encapsulation—or if you’ve only heard the Hollywood horror stories—let me clear it up.

After birth, your placenta can be gently steamed (or not steamed), dehydrated, and ground into capsules. That’s it. No raw placenta smoothies. No weird rituals. Just your body, helping you recover from one of the biggest transitions of your life.

Why do people do it?
For many women (myself included), it helps with things like:
• Energy
• Mood balance
• Milk supply
• Bleeding
• That foggy, hormonal crash no one really warns you about

It’s not for everyone. But for some of us, it’s a lifeline in those early postpartum weeks.

Hey Fruit of Labor mommas! It’s been a loooong time since I’ve updated my website and today I finally sat down and updated the site as well as got the graphics done for new business cards and stickers for my packages 🙌🏼🙌🏼.

That all said, if you’d like to add a testimonial of your encapsulation experience to my website (or the page) it would help me out tremendously! Please feel free to message me for the website. Facebook I think you can do directly 🤔 If you’d like to include a pic, that’d be awesome too.
