🍋 What if your gestational diabetes screening didn’t have to taste like syrup?

At Tree of Life Birth & Gynecology, we proudly offer The Fresh Test® as an alternative option for gestational diabetes screening.

Why do so many families appreciate it?

✨ Made with non-GMO ingredients
🍋 Naturally flavored and tastes like lemonade
🚫 No artificial dyes
🤍 A simple 1-hour fast beforehand
🩸 Blood is drawn right here in our office

If your screening result is under 135, your test is considered normal.

If your result is over 135, we don’t automatically jump to another glucose drink. Instead, we offer an evidence-based alternative: monitoring your blood sugar at home with finger sticks.

You’ll check your blood sugar:
🤍 First thing in the morning (fasting)
🤍 One hour after each meal

If 80% of those readings are within the normal range, we do not diagnose gestational diabetes.

At Tree of Life, we believe in providing options, educating families, and using evidence to guide care. Every recommendation we make is centered on helping you make informed decisions that are right for you and your baby. 💜

Have questions about gestational diabetes screening? We’d love to talk with you!

💜 Behind every birth is a team that truly cares.

At Tree of Life Birth & Gynecology, our commitment to your family goes far beyond your appointments.

Every month, our midwives and student midwives come together for in-depth 28-week and 36-week chart reviews, carefully looking over each client’s care. We make sure your lab work is current, your ultrasounds have been completed, your forms are signed, your education is thorough, and every detail has been thoughtfully reviewed.

These meetings are more than a checklist. They’re a reflection of how deeply we value your trust and how committed we are to providing safe, individualized, evidence-informed care.

It is truly a privilege to walk alongside you during one of the most important seasons of your life. Thank you for choosing Tree of Life. We don’t take that honor lightly, and we’re grateful to be part of your journey every step of the way. 💜

☀️ Sunny days are here! Before heading outside, take a moment to choose a sunscreen that helps protect your little one’s delicate skin.

Our latest graphic highlights 10 EWG-rated mineral sunscreens for babies and kids that are made with zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide, offering broad-spectrum protection without many of the ingredients families prefer to avoid.

🌿 A few sun safety reminders:
☀️ Seek shade whenever possible
👒 Wear protective clothing and wide-brimmed hats
🧴 Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours (and after swimming or sweating)
💧 Remember that “water resistant” does not mean waterproof
🤍 For babies under 6 months, prioritize shade and protective clothing, and talk with your pediatric provider about sun protection recommendations.

Every family has different needs, so choose the sunscreen that works best for your child and your adventures this summer!

📖 This list is based on the Environmental Working Group (EWG) 2025 Sunscreen Guide.

What sunscreen has worked best for your family? Share your favorites below! ☀️💜

💜 Sleep is essential for babies and parents alike.

For many families, co-sleeping (when practiced safely) can be a beautiful way to nurture connection while making nighttime feeding and rest more manageable.

Some potential benefits include:
✨ Supporting breastfeeding and maintaining milk supply
✨ Helping babies regulate breathing, heart rate, and body temperature
✨ Encouraging longer, more restful sleep for both parent and baby
✨ Strengthening the parent-baby bond through closeness and responsiveness

Every family is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to infant sleep. If you’re considering co-sleeping, learning about safe sleep practices can help you make an informed decision that works best for your family.

At Tree of Life Birth & Gynecology, we’re here to provide evidence-based education, compassionate support, and guidance without judgment—so you can confidently choose what feels right for you and your baby. 💜

Have questions about infant sleep, breastfeeding, or newborn care? We’d love to support you.

💜 Staying informed is one of the best ways to protect yourself and your growing family.

The CDC is currently investigating a multistate outbreak of Cyclospora, a parasite that can cause prolonged gastrointestinal illness. While the source has not yet been confirmed, fresh produce is being investigated.

If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, it’s helpful to know:
🌿 Cyclospora does not pass through breast milk.
🌿 The greatest concern during pregnancy is dehydration from prolonged diarrhea.
🌿 Cooking fruits and vegetables can reduce risk while more information becomes available.
🌿 If you develop persistent diarrhea, abdominal cramping, or other concerning symptoms, contact your healthcare provider.

Knowledge empowers us to make thoughtful, informed choices for ourselves and our families. 💜

At Tree of Life Birth & Gynecology, we’re committed to sharing evidence-based information so you can navigate pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood with confidence.

Have questions? Our team is always here to help. 💜
