The best vitamin c supplement you can take in my opinion! It’s whole food form, not synthetic vitamin c made in a lab. Makes a huge difference in the quality and how well your body actually uses it.

This is an incredible book to mentally prepare for birth. It’s geared more towards natural birth but honestly would really be useful if you want to get an epidural too.
