Resources & Other Good Shit

What We’re Consuming

  • Diane is loving What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking by Caroline Chambers. Favorites so far are the pesto meatballs with tomato salad and labneh; sausage kale pasta; cheesy beef and potato flautas!

  • Adina is making blueberry and lemon scones on repeat by modifying this recipe.

  • Diane is watching home tours on Homeworthy’s YouTube channel for new house inspo.

  • Adina needs all of us to watch SNL 50th (!!!) anniversary show or, at the VERY least, this skit that was made just for her.

  • Adina also recommends watching The Other Culkin (Kieran) and Jesse Eisenberg in A Real Pain (Hulu)

Other Good Shit

  • GentleBirth is the class that Diane took to learn the basics of labor and birth. They also have this excellent app if Christian birth tracks also aren’t your speed. Diane’s favorites were the hypnosis tracks to fall asleep and to mentally prepare for birth!

  • Yeet That Baby Out - Diane’s hip hop playlist that came in handy for the ride to the birth center.

  • Ina May’s Guide to Childbirth is the OG homebirth book. The birth stories were great but Diane personally found it a lil too crunch.

🎉 STHH Prenatal is due this spring

Thinking of catching a baby this year? STHH Prenatal is due this spring! Take the guesswork out of how to move for healthy fertility and leave it to the pros! Adina’s program will show you how to train and build strength before pregnancy.
