Summer celebrations, backyard barbecues, pool days, and Fourth of July festivities are some of the best parts of the season—but they also bring soaring temperatures and an increased risk of dehydration.

Whether you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, or breastfeeding, staying hydrated is one of the most important things you can do for your health and your baby’s well-being.

Today we’re sharing a refreshing Red, White & Blue Pregnancy-Safe Electrolyte Drink along with everything you need to know about why hydration matters during pregnancy and postpartum.

There are moments in life that don’t just change you — they call you. For me, birth was one of those moments. I didn’t step into this work because it was trendy. I didn’t do it because it seemed like a good business idea. I stepped into birth work because something inside me would not stay quiet.

I was the woman who cried during birth stories. The one who leaned in when other people leaned back. The one who felt the sacredness of the room even before I had language for it.

There is something powerful about watching a woman realize her strength in real time. Something life-altering about witnessing a family being born. I remember thinking, This matters. This is holy work. And I knew I wanted to be part of it.
