I’ve decided it was time to do a Baby & Momma week! Such a huge part of who I am is that I home birthed. It started me on this health journey and shaped what kind of mother I would become. While my babies are no longer babies, I still have quite a few recipes I’ve shared as well as research I’ve done when it comes to raising children the natural way. So today I’m kicking off this week with recipes and informational posts that you might find helpful!
