I don't take conventional prenatal vitamins, but that doesn't mean I don't put a lot of thought and effort into prenatal nutrition, I do! And it's something I'm asked about all the time so I'm walking you through my day late in my fifth pregnancy sharing some natural prenatal nutrition tips, while also checking some nesting tasks off the list and baking with yeast and sourdough.

    Thank you for the video. You speak my thoughts! I am also a nurse with 2 little ones, cloth diapering, getting crunchier by the day and I started questioning a lot about healthcare after 2020. It is alarming no one wants to tell you side effects the v a c c i n e s can have on our children. Love the strawberry cinnamon rolls. You’re crushing it Mama!
  • @boething
    I have three kids, ages 47, almost 45, and almost 38. I had all three of them naturally. My longest labor was 5 hours. Sending love and prayers for your new baby!!
  • @royalicing8603
    Thank you for sharing your thoughts regarding your family's health and 'medical' needs. As for me and my family, we haven't been to a doctor/clinic/hospital for over 10 years. We haven't had a NEED to go! I agree there are certainly situations/emergencies where I would not hesitate to go in that direction, but we've been blessed with good health. Our lifestyle is very much like yours in that we eat healthy, grow most of our own food, and believe that God created this beautiful world to contain everything that our bodies require for health... NATURALLY. I look forward to the day when ALL people understand that popping pharmaceuticals isn't the answer to every ailment, and when doctors are actually taught about nutrition and natural solutions. I believe that day will come! I truly love your videos and look forward to hearing about the birth of your new little blessing! ❤

    I have two kids, ages 43 and 41. I had both naturally without any classes on labor and delivery. I wanted to have them at home but that was unheard of back then. Everyone thought I had lost my mind. I tried to get my daughter to go natural and at home, but she thought about it for one second and said NO. She didn’t want to feel a thing. I wish you all the best❤❤❤
  • @katebeautyx8393
    1000% .Hospitals; doctors etc have a time and place. As a fellow nurse, I fully agree.
  • @Agoodwifeparvati
    I got diagnosed with sub clinical hypothyroidism and they were ready to give me alll the medications lol. I was like no thank you. Ever since then ive been handling on my own naturally , eating right and i have more energy than ever and feel great.
  • @nahhangraph1645
    Thank you!! I just found out im pregnant with my first ❤❤
  • We love doing everything the natural way too! We treat everything naturally at home. If theres ever an emergency, we know where to go. All 3 of my kids were born at home too and it was so wonderful! Praying for a safe delivery for you!
  • Wishing you a beautiful Natural delivery. I had all four of my kids naturally( not at home) without medications. I enjoyed being pregnant each and every time and my deliveries were all super quick. Thank you for bringing us along on your journey! I can’t wait to see the new addition to an already beautiful and blessed family.

    You are such an inspo for me after i watched your birth stories its like listening to mine all over again the nicu , the progesterone, the miscarriage, mine have went in same order and im the same age as you too!!! now im loving all your videos and info i just want to thank you and your amazing i am planning an unassisted homebirth after one with a midwife last time and u have made me more sure of myself this is what im meant to do and I know its what God is telling me to do...to trust him...its just so nice to see another mama doing the same and im learning so much from you!!!

This is baby number 7 after miscarrying my first time in august...im 18 weeks now...getting out of the morning sickness finally!!! Prayers for you and your birth and baby and your family!!❤❤❤
  • I Love going down the natural path for everything. Loved this video, Steph.❣️
  • @emilydawson2667
    Magnesium has literally changed my life! I started taking it PP after my 4th daily, with extra sea salt in my diet. For my 5th I’ve had zero morning sickness or fatigue. I’ve always struggled with sickness and fatigue while pregnant! Also the magnesium has curbed my chronic headaches. 1L salt water and 500-1000mg magnesium is my “advil” replacement-and this is only necessary for me to take VERY rarely, contrary to regularly when I used advil! Plus my perpetually ultra-low blood pressure is now completely normal. I’m so very thankful for these improvements.
  • Absolutely love your health approach and philosophy. We have the same mindset, and I feel it’s a good one. We must never stop asking questions and advocating for ourselves and our families. Also love grounding!! ♥️
  • @edenelston7668
    Oh dear one. Take a moment today and breathe a prayer of gratitude. This was so beautiful, and at the same time, so difficult to watch. My heart aches as I desperately wish I could be nesting like this, preparing for our new babe, tending my home while my littles learn and enjoy life. But I can't. This is just what the Lord has for us right now- a season of inconvenience, of dependence on family, and of feeling utterly out of control of our circumstances. You are blessed. Please don't ever forget that, especially on hard days. You've cultivated a beautiful home, have the support of your family, and the blessing and gift of being able to live this precious life fulfilling your roles of wife, mother, homemaker surrounded by beauty. Treasure it, Mama.❤ It's a rare and beautiful gift

    I'm 42, 6 months pregnant after having 3 children, 16, 13 and 11.... I always have needed C-section. I'm sad I can't do it natural😔 I'm extremely healthy and am excited to meet the new baby. I've changed my mindset and life over the past 10 years and no longer allow my family to have all the chemicals, microwave, frozen crap and I feel this round is going to be very different especially when I'm arguing about vaccines at birth. Anyway thank you,vits funny I came across your laundry soap video and here you are sharing about healthy pregnancy ❤️ thank you!! Also I found magnesium topical gel, all natural and works amazing 😍🤩 also I had T5 and T6 compression fractures and when I woke up from the accident my husband hadn't signed for my surgery and fir whatever reason I refused against all the doctors orders and grounded several hours a day, increased certain vital vitamins necessary for bone health and was 80% healed in 10 weeks! Grounding, meditating in nature is 100% the reason I healed and dropped jaws at the the surgeons office❤️
  • @Agoodwifeparvati
    I love hearing your story about your births and how you feel about birth. When I had my first son at 18 in 2011, I was privileged enough to be able to be exposed to knowledge about natural birth and home birth. I never had that experience of birthing in a hospital myself, but I have been there for my sister when she had her three c-sections in the hospital and I was able to see the Stark difference in treatment and privacy Etc. I'm so appreciative for my experience and everything that I've learned since having two more children naturally at home. I pray more women realize they have more options than just the hospital, If their healthy and can birth on their own.
  • @NorthFork-Ranch
    I'm really thankful for your testimony on where we can get the best care for ourselves and our children's health care. I've found out about this the hard way 💔
  • Earthley’s Postpartum Balance was the difference maker in not experiencing intense nighttime temperature swings! AND their Gut tincture SAVED our family after years of battling pinworms with toddlers. We had tried everything from conventional pesticides, extreme hygiene and cleaning regiment, to detoxes, elimination diets, and other natural supplements. After only three months of taking their tincture, a few days a week, we have won the battle on parasites. All while living in the tropics, that’s no easy feat 😅. Can’t sing Earthley’s praises enough! I’ll be sure to use your code when I restock for baby #5, due in about 6 weeks.
  • @brooketeague4985
    I took complete responsibility with my 3rd baby and took care of all my own prenatal care and doing the same for 4th baby coming in a few short weeks. The medical system is not for health! I plan to birth unassisted again. Wishing you a joyful rest of your pregnancy and a safe and blissful birth!
  • @rilyb4033
    You were the first one who talked about having babies early that I found. My first came at 34 weeks and we were in a nicu for a month. My second came at 36 weeks thank God it was a vbac and he was a healthy resilient little dude. Now that I'm prepping to have my 3rd I'm trying to learn as much as possible and your channel has been such a great resource. All the best to you for the last bit of your pregnancy. Praying for a safe delivery and a healthy baby and recovery ❤
