For A Time Such As This

I have so much going on, and I am crumpling under the stress, so much so that I have spent MONTHS battling a severe eczema flare up... So, while I have not been working the doula life (because who would want me to be around when I look like this?), I have REALLY missed interacting with mamas and babies. So, really long story made marginally shorter, I learned something new today, and I wanted to share it!

According to a blog posted by Regenerate Health Medical Center, 9 out of 10 eczema causes stem from the gut. Why is this relevant?

It goes on to say that "the first encounter causing gut permeability in babies is c-section birth and/or not being breast-fed. When a child is born vaginally, the baby is exposed to Mom's beneficial, immune-supporting bacteria. Similarly, since all babies are born with a leaky gut, breast milk provides specific proteins to help baby's gut lining heal. The breast milk provides necessary bacteria for a healthy microbiome."

The article was focused on eczema, but WOW! Breast milk is so important, and when possible, so is a vaginal birth. And in case you didn't know, doula care cuts a woman's odds of a cesarean in half :)

If you know someone battling with eczema, the whole article can be found here:

I am well past these days, but I laughed out loud because I remember them so vividly. You just need one good move, ladies, to take down your tiny opponent, but how do you keep hi I'm there?! The follow on picture should be of a half-diapered toddler running his victory lap :)

This newsletter is full of awesome articles explaining the REAL Jewish position on abortion, not the one seen in the leftist media. Deuteronomy 30:19 says, "I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and they seed may live."
