I suffered from Pregnancy Induced Cholestasis at 25 years old when I was pregnant with my first child. Cholestasis kicked in at 36 weeks gestation and I was forced to have a c-section at 38 weeks because of it. With my second pregnancy, cholestasis began at 34 weeks gestation. And so, I needed to be induced at 37 weeks gestation. I was told there are genetic components and "nothing really" can be done to avoid it, "once you have it, you'll most likely have it again".

Well, ya'll, with my third pregnancy I sure did NOT have it and with my fourth, I reversed it naturally! I delivered both babies at home - all because I took control of my health. I prepared my body prior to pregnancy and I supported my body properly during pregnancy.

Therefore, I love diving into women's health prior to and during pregnancy as well as taking care of their little one once Earth-side. By taking the time to understand each child as a whole, I work to provide holistic, integrative, and preventative care that sets children up for optimal wellness. I strive to provide a safe space to listen to concerns, provide holistic treatment options, and utilize natural remedies when appropriate. I am all about having open conversations in order to help parents in making informed, educated decisions for their child.
