When we nurture nature, we remember our roots—how we’re meant to grow together, not apart.

Motherhood is not meant to be a competition. It’s not about who’s doing it “right” or who has it all together. Society loves to pit us against each other, to isolate us with unrealistic expectations, silent struggles, and comparisons that make us question our worth.

But when we choose to nurture—ourselves, each other, and the world around us—we reclaim that power.

💕We break cycles of loneliness.
💕We challenge the systems that divide us.
💕We build a community rooted in compassion, growth, and solidarity.

Because when moms support one another, it’s not just healing—it’s revolutionary. 🌱💪💛

Thank you @sdzsafaripark for sharing the nature you’re protecting!

Original • @sdzsafaripark Circle of trust 🐘

Elephants have the unique ability to feel sounds through their feet and formed what is known as an “alert circle” during the 5.2 magnitude earthquake that shook Southern California this morning. This behavior, demonstrated here by Ndlula, Zuli, Mkhaya, Umngani, and Khosi, is a natural response to perceived threats that helps protect younger elephants and the herd as a whole.

After this morning’s shake up, the eles returned to business as usual and are safe along with the rest of the crew at San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance.

Society glorifies motherhood, but abandons moms th

Society glorifies motherhood, but abandons moms the moment they need support. Society celebrates strength, but ignores burnout.

We say “moms are superheroes,” but then expect them to do it all without help, sleep, or a break. We celebrate the mom who’s juggling everything with a smile, but we don’t ask why she’s forced to carry so much alone.

Society doesn’t fail moms because they aren’t strong enough—it fails them because it demands strength without offering support.

The problem isn’t mothers—it’s the unrealistic standards society holds them to, without giving them the resources to survive, let alone thrive. It’s time we stop applauding the struggle and start building systems that actually support moms.

We need policies, paid leave, affordable childcare, mental health care, and a culture that values mothers as more than just caretakers who do all they can without the support they need.

It’s not weakness to ask for help. It’s a sign that this system was never built with moms in mind.

Let’s stop glorifying the struggle and start demanding better.

For the best start for both you and your baby!

Posted • @mynightingalenursing The short answer is yes! But keep reading to learn why….

So you’re pregnant! Yay!! Congratulations!! Off to your first prenatal appointment you go. Not because anything is wrong but because you want to make sure everything is right and that you and baby are healthy!

Fast forward 9 months and you’ve been to a ton of OB appointments right? Not necessarily because anything is wrong but because you want to catch it if there is, right? You want to stay healthy and prevent any problems that you can.

Same goes for breastfeeding! You don’t want to wait until everything is going wrong before getting education and guidance. It should be standard care that every lactating person be assessed for potential challenges and given guidance BEFORE baby has arrived.

The most important thing you’ll do as a new parent is feed your baby! So wouldn’t you want to be prepared to do that, and face any obstacles that pop up with confidence?

That’s why we’re here! Whether it’s through one of our Breastfeeding Basics & More Classes that go over all the different ways to feed your baby or one of our Prenatal Lactation Appointments, you will feel empowered and confident to tackle any feeding challenge that comes your way!

We can’t emphasize enough that EVERY woman shoul

We can’t emphasize enough that EVERY woman should be evaluated by a pelvic floor PT at least once in their lives! ❤️

Original post @agpelvopt What to expect in an initial Pelvic Floor evaluation with AG Physical Therapy?

Lasts about 90 minutes long, and because I am an out of network provider, I have the time to listen and hear everything you have to tell me.
My focus is not just on the pelvic floor. I evaluate the body in its entirety, because the pelvic floor is heavily connected to the lower back, hips, thoracic spine and diaphragm, the core, jaw and feet!
Having an orthopedic and manual therapy background compliments and supports the pelvic floor work.
You can also expect hands on treatment, an internal pelvic floor exam with your consent, and a tailored home exercise program at your first session.

My focus is on a multidisciplinary approach, because the pelvic floor is also regulated by your autonomic nervous system. So many other practitioners can help you and I achieve your goals.
Acupuncture, chiropractic, mental health, doula, mid wife, naturopath, holistic hormone support just to name a few.

I look forward to meeting you within your journey. Let’s heal together 🫶🏼

Reduce your risk and see @mynightingalenursing BE

Reduce your risk and see @mynightingalenursing BEFORE baby arrives for your best chance at success.

Original post @mynightingalenursing 🍼 Low milk supply is one of the most common reasons parents stop breastfeeding or pumping earlier than planned, but it’s not your fault! 💛

The odds are stacked against many new moms, and as a nurse practitioner-IBCLC, I want you to know that there are very real reasons behind low supply, including:

🔹 Hormonal imbalances (thyroid disorders, PCOS)
🔹 Previous breast surgeries or trauma (biopsies, etc)
🔹 Inflammation linked to tons of medical conditions
🔹 High stress + anxiety (just look at the world we live in)
🔹 Certain medications and supplements
🔹 Poor latch or infrequent feeding
🔹 and the list goes on.......

✨ The good news? Many of these can be identified and supported during pregnancy — before feeding even begins.

That’s why we recommend a prenatal lactation consult for EVERY parent preparing to feed their newborn.

We’ll:
✔️ Review your health history
✔️ Assess risk factors
✔️ Create a personalized feeding plan
✔️ Answer all your questions (even the ones you don’t know to ask yet)

Starting your lactation journey informed and empowered makes a huge difference. 🤍

Let’s get ahead of it — you deserve support from the very beginning.
