I encourage a healthy well balanced diet including proteins, grains, beans, fruits and vegetables, and Mono-unsaturated fatty acids like olive oil. Pure foods in their purest forms and fresh as possible while eliminating refined white flours, sugars and any foods one might have an allergy such as High Fructos Corn Syrup. I encourage you to start reading the labels of the food products you consume.
We all know that fruits and vegetables should be the foundational support of any diet. Vine and tree ripened organic produce contains increased nutrients, minerals and vitamins. Some people get intestinal gas or diahrrea just eating the regular produce from their local grocers and others just don't eat the produce they need. The diarrhea, HA's and general intestinal discomfort are really the vegetable and fruits helping your body to detox from the fast paced Standard American Diet ( SAD) and it is really a detox.

In addition:
There are many non-hormonal and non prescriptive methods of contraception. My goal is to empower women to learn about the various contraceptive methods besides "the pill". Oral contraceptives are great and can alleviate some physical symptoms such as painful menstrual cramps or acne. Alternatives to the pill include the Standard Days method, Cycle beads, the Femcap, the Mirena and Paragard, and contraceptive film. 512-846-1345 for map, times and dates of group classes in Hutto.

Are you worried about the cost? Read more I'll tell you why it's low cost?
Since when did creating your own health become the domain of someone else besides your self?
Centering pregnancy is about facilitating health while you are pregnant and waiting for funding for your prenatal care.
Centering is a ministry to community women by providing competent, loving, group centered prenatal care by a caring and loving professional certified nurse midwife.
Certified nurse midwives are trained in all aspects of prenatal care, delivery, post partum care and initial newborn care. CNM's work with the TDH to provide all the basics.
When your medicaid funding comes in, you simply take your prenatal record with you to your new doctor. If you are enjoying the centering groups you are welcome to continue to visit classes. Centering is not seeing a midwife for a home birth. This is a separate ministry and is done voluntarily to aid the many women who are denied medicaid for one reason or another. Quite frankly- The lack of medicaid funding is quite a problem for many pregnant women and it may take their whole pregnancy. Meanwhile it is possible to recieve affordable prenatal care by a professional who volunteers her time and expertise as a woman's health care professional special for you!
