It’s Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week! 💙💙💙💙💙💙 This sweet little love bug in the photo was about 9 weeks old. I look back with rose colored glasses thinking gahh how sweet, but the honest truth was the first year of her life was by far the worst year of mine. It deeply sucks saying that, but it’s true. There were sweet moments of course, but most of it was just 0/10 stars for me mentally. Why did I feel so terrible? I’ve agonized over it still to this day and the answer is I have no clue🤷🏻‍♀️ I talk about it all the time but I can’t tell you how many times I said somethings wrong and I was brushed off and even hyped up like you got this you can do anything nothings wrong! But truly there was. If I could go back this is what I’d do: - start medication immediately. I was proudly on Zoloft for close to 2 years before I weaned off and I’d do it again in a heart beat - I would have stopped nursing and pumping and just let that stress go. It wasn’t working for us and I wish I would have accepted it and started formula quicker - I wish I would have hired a sleep consultant to help give me realistic expectations of infant sleep - I also wish I would/could have started my kids in daycare earlier so I could have started intensive therapy quicker It was the biggest reality check. Mental health issues are such a disease. It is a mega problem and there’s nothing I love more than to give moms hope that you’ll feel better one day! Call your new mom friend! Drop off food! Ask them how their brain is doing. It could make all the difference in their recovery💙 . . . #mentalhealthawareness #ssri #postpartum #ppd #ppp #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #nutrition #health #wellness

Another take on the sheet pan salmon dinner! A sweet and spicy combo that you can switch up by using any kind of veggies! My fav types of salmon to use are Copper River Salmon, and King Salmon. You can find them from fisheries online and sometimes at a local fish monger. 2 salmon filets cut into 1-2 inch chunks 2 cloves garlic 1/4 cup Siracha 1/4 cup maple syrup 4 dashes low sodium soy sauce Dash turmeric, paprika, cumin Combine marinade. Add salmon to the marinade and allow to sit for 30 Minutes. While it’s sitting chop up some broccoli and cauliflower. Place it on a tray with some olive oil/salt/pepper. Roast for 25 mins at 375. Take it out and add salmon to the pan, including the marinade. Mix it all together and bake for another 15-20 minutes. #salmon #dinner #glutenfree #foodie #nutrition #health #wellness #recipeoftheday #dietitian #nutritionist #pescatarian #hearthealth #omega3 #mediterraneandiet #reels #recipereels

We will be starting our meat birds most likely in June! Once they’re raised and processed I’ll let everyone know how many we’ve got available. The goal is to get some more freezers so you can purchase on a self serve basis as well! We’re starting our birds a bit later this year so we don’t have to use as much heat on them and get them out to roam ASAP👏🏼 thanks for the continued farm support✨It’s a real joy seeing people care about what they eat♥️ . . . . #farm #farming #meatbirds #chicken #recipe #food #farmlife #farmtotable #ohio #foodie #dietitian #homesteader #homesteadingrd #homegrown #homegrownfood #nutrition #health #wellness
