There’s no shortage of “natural labor tips” online, and it can be hard to tell what’s supportive, what’s harmless, and what actually has evidence behind it.

As licensed midwives, we always want to honor personal autonomy. You deserve to make informed choices about your body and your birth. At the same time, informed choice means understanding the differences between guidance shared online and care provided by trained, licensed professionals.

If you’re exploring labor preparation options and feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice, that’s understandable. Conversations grounded in evidence, trust, and respect are where real preparation happens.

What’s one labor tip you’ve seen online that left you wondering, “Is this actually recommended?”

Told your labs are “normal”… but you still feel awful?

You’re not imagining it.

So many women are dismissed or rushed through appointments—left with no answers and no real support.

At Wildflower Women’s Wellness, we use functional lab testing to look deeper and find out what’s really going on with your hormones, energy, mood, and more.

✨ Because “normal” isn’t good enough

✨ You deserve to feel optimal—not just get by

9 weeks in, and your baby is already leaving their mark on the world.

It’s incredible to think that long before birth, before their first breath, or their first cry, they already have something uniquely their own—their fingerprints.

Just like those tiny swirls and ridges, their journey will be one-of-a-kind. And so will yours. 💛

Pregnancy is a reminder that the little moments (the ones we can’t even see yet) are the ones that matter the most.

💬 Moms, what was the first moment in pregnancy that made it feel “real” for you? Share below! ⬇️

Most birth defects are NOT caused by something a parent did or didn’t do. Many happen because of factors we still don’t fully understand, genetics we can’t control, or developments that occur very early in pregnancy.

And yet, guilt and self-blame often show up anyway.
Parents replay meals, medications, workouts, stressful days, and moments they wish they could redo, even when none of those things caused what happened.

At the same time, awareness also means sharing information that can support healthier pregnancies.

Some steps that COULD help reduce certain risks include:
↳ getting enough folic acid before and during early pregnancy
↳ prioritizing balanced nutrition
↳ practicing good infection prevention (like handwashing and food safety)
↳ managing chronic health conditions with your care team
↳ seeking prenatal care early when possible

These steps are about support and don’t guarantee outcomes, nor do they determine worth or effort.

If you or someone you love has received unexpected news during pregnancy, know that support, compassion, and good care matter far more than answers or blame.

Birth equity isn’t just good for families.

It’s good for your workforce.

Companies that support birth equity (including access to midwifery care and postpartum support) see measurable gains in:

✔️ Retention

✔️ Mental health outcomes

✔️ Employee satisfaction and loyalty

If your benefits package doesn’t reflect the full reality of parenthood, it’s not working as well as it could be.

At Casa Natal, we partner with forward-thinking HR leaders to explore how midwifery care and holistic maternal health support can fit into your employee benefits strategy.

Let’s talk about what’s possible.

Curious about how conception months line up with due dates? It’s one of those things that always feels a little wild once you see it mapped out.

Most people think about seasons or holidays… but due dates don’t always match the months we expect.

And if you’re trying to conceive, tracking cycles, or just starting to think about expanding your family, this can be a helpful way to visualize the year ahead.

If you ever want to talk through timing, prep, or what the next few months might look like, you can always reach out. We’re happy to walk through your questions with you.

As we step into a new year, we hope it meets you with gentleness.Happy New Year from all of us.

As we look back on 2025, we can’t help but smile at all the beautiful names that filled our year.

Each one represents a family, a story, and a moment we were honored to be part of.

Thank you to every family who trusted us with such a meaningful chapter of their lives. Being part of these beginnings is something we never take lightly, and we’re so grateful for each connection, conversation, and birth we shared this year.

Which name stood out to you the most? 💙

Still feeling off? Even after the holidays?

If you’re tired, anxious, or just not feeling like yourself it might not be “just stress.”

It could be your body asking for deeper support.

But here’s the thing, you can’t fix it with supplements without knowing the whole story.

So many women take vitamins because they think they need them, but often it’s the wrong dose, or not what your body needs at all.

At Wildflower Women’s Wellness (the functional medicine branch of Casa Natal), we use functional lab work to figure out what’s really going on with your hormones, nutrient levels, and postnatal recovery. So you’re not wasting money on guesswork.

✅ Personalized support

✅ Clear answers

✅ Real healing that starts at the root

Holiday gatherings can be fun… but they’re also loud, busy, overstimulating, and sometimes a lot for a pregnant body to move through. And in full rooms with full schedules, it’s easy to ignore what your body is trying to tell you.

Here are a few simple check-ins you can use tonight (and all week) to stay grounded:

💙 “Do I feel warm or flushed?” Find a cooler or quieter spot if your body feels overheated.

💙 “How’s my breath?” If it’s short or shallow, pause and take a couple slow, steady breaths.

💙 “Do I need water?” Hydration slips quickly during busy gatherings. A quick sip makes a difference.

💙 “Am I standing just to be polite?” Sit when you need to. You don’t have to power through discomfort.

💙 “Is my energy dipping?” Breaks, early exits, and quiet rooms are all valid options.

💙“Is the noise or stimulation too much?” Step away for a minute, even a hallway or the car with the heater running helps.

Your body communicates constantly, especially during pregnancy.

If anything feels off or you have questions this holiday season, you can always reach out. We’re here for you through every season.

Have you noticed any signals your body gives you when things feel too busy?
