SUPPORTING, GUIDING AND EMPOWERING WOMEN THROUGH THE WHOLE JOURNEY OF PREGNANCY.

• NO, not THAT kind of Baby • 🔜

No, I'm NOT pregnant.

But this project has been about nine months in the making… and I’m finally almost ready to share it with you. 🤍

October 2026.

• NO, this is not a “just relax and you’ll get pregnant” story •

Because I was not relaxed. I was actually fighting for my life.

That myth deserves its own conversation, and we’ll have it soon.

This story is about giving myself permission to start doing things I actually wanted to do again. To remember that while I waited, I was still allowed to live my life.

If this story feels familiar, I’d love to hear from you.
What have you been putting on hold while you wait?

I see you and I’m sending you a hug. 🤍

♡ PREVIOUSLY ON…♡

For the past two and a half years, I made a very intentional choice to slow down professionally and make motherhood my priority.

Not because this part of me disappeared.
Not because I stopped caring deeply about birth work and the difference good support and education can make.
And definitely not because I stopped having ideas.

But because there was one role in my life I knew I couldn’t be replaced in.

I had worked so hard to have the privilege of being called Mom. And once I got there, I wanted the time and space to truly be in it.

Emilia, I love being your mom. I love you with every single cell in me. And getting to spend these years by your side, uninterrupted, has been the greatest privilege of my life. I know how lucky I’ve been to have this time with you, and I don’t take any of it for granted.

These years have been full. Full of ordinary days and huge changes, new countries and familiar faces, travel and home, cooking and contact naps, watching her become more and more herself while I figured out who I was becoming, too.

Somewhere in the middle of all that beautiful chaos, I started feeling the pull toward birth work again.

And I listened.

This work has always felt like a calling to me. And now, I finally feel ready to make space for it again, while continuing to be the present mother I want to be.

I’m ready to hold space for both.

So… hi. 👋
It feels really good to be here again.

And I have so much I’m excited to share with you. 🤍

☆ THE B***H IS BACK ☆

Well… I’m back. 🤍

And BREATHE is, too.

New things are coming and I'm beyond excited to share the new face of Breathe with all of you!

Stay tuned.

Love,

Vero.

• DREAMS REALLY DO COME TRUE • 🌈💛

It takes a lot of COURAGE to come and live inside someone who has a broken heart...it takes a lot of STRENGTH to patiently and quietly help rebuild a heart knowing that some pieces will never be found... it takes a lot of LOVE to love someone who is so afraid of loving again... I wholeheartedly believe that rainbow babies are one of the bravest beings on earth...

Today is and I wanted to take a moment to celebrate you over here (because I already celebrate you every single second of every day) You are the most magical thing that's ever happened to us! ✨️ You paint our lives with colors we didn't even know existed!! We love you in ways we cannot even begin to comprehend... and our hearts and lives are so full because of you!

I hope you know you don't have to be brave all the time. My job is to protect YOU. I hope you know that even though you have healed me in unimaginable ways, it is not your responsibility to do so. I promise to continue to work hard every day on my growing healing journey so I can be the best version of myself for you, for us, and for me.

Emilia Calis Pertuso, you are everything, above and beyond! Thank you for coming. Thank you for staying. Thank you for choosing ME as your Mami, and thank you for choosing us as your family! We will be forever grateful to you for coming into our lives! 💛

• WELCOME BABY • 🤍

Also, it was "GOING TO WORK WITH MAMI DAY" 🥹🤰🏽🤍

I've been off the birth rooms for a little while now. Decision that was not easy to make, but extremely necessary for my physical and mental health, and also my baby's. But because this is truly a strong calling, I've been making a few small exceptions here and there, and yesterday, I got to go to do birth Doula work with my little peanut (more like a butterscotch squash 😅).

Baby boy was born healthy, well, and strong. The world is a better place with you in it! 🌟 Both him and mom are such warriors! And together with dad, they made the perfect team. I have so much respect and admiration for all of them, and I'm so grateful for them and their trust in me and what I do now for a second time. 🤍 Thank you for sharing your birth space with us! 🤰🏽🤍

The next birth we will attend will be ours...how crazy that is? 🥹🙌🏻🤍 Can't wait! 🥰

• MERRY CHRISTMAS / FELIZ NAVIDAD • 🎄❤️🙏🏻

After a few Christmas, finally, my uterus is feeling festive for all the good reasons! 🥰❤️🤰🏽

Feliz Navidad to all of you from the both of us! Thank you for all the love and support throughout this journey!

Love and deep gratitude,

Your Doula and la Mamá de Emilia,

Vero! ❤️

• GROWING A RAINBOW • 🌈🤰🏽

23 weeks of growing you, my sweet and brave miracle rainbow baby! 🥹🙏🏻🤍

I designed this sweater and finally received it yesterday! I will wear it with pride, honored, and strength. These 3 words carry so much power and a whole story behind it! 🙏🏻💛

23 weeks of you and me, Mi Amorcito... a body that changes by the day, and I can not get enough of it. The last picture, "the silhouette of love," like my sister said to me this morning... 🥹🤰🏽🤍

I'm so proud of you, of my body, and of me. We are truly the best team! Every day, you heal a piece of my soul, mi Emilia! Te amo eterno bebé de mamá! 🤍🌈🤰🏽

• PREGNANCY AFTER A LOSS • 💛💙

There is no better way for me to describe it than with these images. They truly speak for themselves.

(If you have seen the movie "Insideout," you will know exactly what I'm talking about, and if you haven't, do yourself a favor and go and watch it.)

When I saw those 2 lines, I was SHOCKED, then I was sooo HAPPY!! (This is the miracle I never thought will happen to us...the medically "almost impossible" outcome) and then, minutes after this intoxicating happiness, a HUGE wave of fear and sadness shower me...something that happened uncontrollably...I cried of happiness and almost instantly I was crying out of sadness...such an overwhelming feeling... I cried for the baby that would never be, for the chapter I felt "needed to be close" feeling like I still was not ready for that, for having to talk to another baby, the guilt and the sensation of me abandoning the one that I lost. So many feelings and mix emotions that I could write about it for days...

The truth is, I thought I needed to choose between happiness and sadness, when in reality, I didn't... they both could and are coexisting together harmoniously. It took and is still taking a lot of inner work and self-kindness, but I'm walking the walk one day at the time. Somedays, one feels stronger than the other, and that's ok... I just try to honor them. They both belong, they both deserve space, and I don't need to choose. This is the story of this pregnancy... and that's ok... I love and respect this pregnancy the way it is.

Don't let anyone tell you how you should be feeling regarding your pregnancy journey, especially after a loss. Feel all the feelings with kindness, curiosity, compassion, and patience... you are not alone!

• SO, SO, SOO THANKFUL FOR YOU • 🥲🤰🏽🌈🙏🏻🤍

21 weeks with you Mi amor de Mami! 🥹 What a ride this has been... I love you in ways I can not even begin to comprehend!

I have learned and will continue to learn how to navigate the ups and the downs of being a PAL Mom (Pregnancy after a loss Mom)...

I will enjoy every quiet moment of pure joy where there are no fears, just like the one in this picture (yesterday afternoon)...and breathe throughout the rough ones where fear takes over and uncertainty makes breathing a bit more difficult, just like this morning...

I will be kind, I will be patient, with you, but especially with myself...and I will take it slow, breathing quietly, closing my eyes and paying attention to your gentle movements that bring me down to earth and into the ligh...

You are here, you are well, you are strong, you are ALIVE, you are so loved...I am here, I am well, I am strong, I sustain life, I am so loved...

Move little one... one breath at the time...
