    This week we’re kicking off a two-part series on PCOS, and it’s personal. This is part one where Alaina shares her journey of living with PCOS—from the first confusing signs as a teenager, to being given a bad bandaid solution by doctors, to finally finding her own path forward.

Some studies have shown this association, but research also suggests the increased risk is often due to related factors like longer pushing stages or more assisted deliveriesrather than the epidural itself. Always discuss your personal risks and options with your care provider.*Around the 17-minute mark, we talk about holding on to “arm fat” postpartum to help with milk production. Fat reserves in this season often go to places like your hips, thighs, butt, and sometimes arms... but we just want to clarify this might not happen to you.

This episode isn’t about fear-mongering at all, it’s about sharing our experience, how it unfolded, and what we wish we’d known before we started. Because it was a long road (months and months), and there were so many moments we found ourselves asking, “How did no one warn us about this?”We cover the full breakdown: cost, steps, how to find a clinic, and what helped us navigate it all. We also talk about how meditation was a huge tool for calming our nervous systems, especially during the hardest days and weeks. After miscarriage, through IVF for genetic reasons… it was a lot to process, a lot of decisions to make, and we truly took it one day at a time, learning and making decisions as we went through it in real time.IVF isn’t just physical with shots. It’s a relationship process, something that stretches and shapes you as a couple. It’s spiritual. It’s mental and emotional. And you really don’t understand that until you’re in it.This one’s for anyone in limbo, waiting, or walking through the thick of it. For anyone who’s had to let go of the IVF timeline, the plan, the “perfect” month to get pregnant. You are not broken. Your story is sacred. And if you’re doing IVF or thinking about it, you’re not alone in this—I hope something we shared today brings you a little comfort or clarity.It’s just a phase and we’re walking through it with you!TOPICS COVERED➡ Why we did IVF without an infertility diagnosis➡ Exactly what we spent (yep, $34k+) and where it all went➡ What we wish we knew before embryo testing + transfer➡ How we prepped our bodies for implantation➡ Why the two-week wait is its own psychological sport➡ What the emotional load looks like as a couple➡ Realistic nursery expectations➡ Building our birth team and what we’re doing differently this timeEPISODE RESOURCES➡ SART.org — compare IVF clinics and success rates➡ EvidenceBasedBirth.com — real research for real decisions➡ “The Vaccine-Friendly Plan” — take what works, leave the rest➡ Our doulas Megan + Courtney (if you're in RI/MA, DM us)➡ “Pregnancy Prayer” by Dr. Laura Graye — we listened to this every single day during our IVF process**In this previously recorded episode, we noted that the Pregnancy Prayer Medigraytion was free.

    S2.5 E2: Our Favorite Natural Period Pain Remedies (Instead of NSAIDS like IBuProfen or Advil)

    In this episode, we're diving into the world of natural remedies for period pain, moving away from NSAIDs and quick fixes like Tylenol. Many of us have experienced the vicious cycle of relying on these medications for pain relief, only to face short- and long-term side effects like gut issues and ovulation disruption. It's time to take a closer look! For those with endometriosis or severe period pain who feel they need NSAIDs for immediate relief, we completely understand and honor your choice. Pain management is deeply personal, and relief is essential. Our goal here is simply to raise awareness about the potential negative side effects of these medications and highlight the importance of addressing the root cause of inflammation. Instead of just masking the pain, we're here to help you build a holistic pain relief toolkit that supports your health. From turmeric lattes to magnesium lotions and even heating pads shaped like uteruses (yes, really!), we’re exploring natural remedies that manage pain, reduce inflammation, and support your hormones—without the negative health side effects. TOPICS COVERED ➡ The hidden risks of ibuprofen and NSAIDs for women ➡ Why addressing the root cause of period pain matters ➡ Ginger (teas, capsules, pastes) ➡ Turmeric + black pepper for better absorption ➡ Magnesium (lotion, sprays, and supplements) ➡ Omega-3 fatty acids ➡ Red raspberry leaf tea ➡ Heat therapy: heating pads and warm baths ➡ Red light therapy and its benefits for uterine health ➡ CBD products for period pain ➡ Herbal tinctures like cramp bark for muscle relaxation ➡ Building a proactive, holistic approach to hormone health EPISODE RESOURCES ➡ Wenatal Omega 3 DHA+ www.wenatal.com/balancedbeyars ➡ Paleo Valley Superfood Golden milk latte and Turmeric Supplements https://www.paleovalley.com/?pc=pvpartners&oid=26&affid=897 ➡ Tinctures ➡ Tradicional Medicinals Red Raspberry Leaf Tea https://www.traditionalmedicinals.com/products/raspberry-leaf-tea?srsltid=AfmBOootxGWYvUamBFehejGPwN7BITLeWkE-wNHQbJF1HBClMyefg5pH ➡ Cured Nutrition Salve for Relief https://glnk.io/p996x/alaina-carly-julie code BALANCEDBEYARS ➡ Red Light Therapy https://www.biolight.shop?sca_ref=2845809.39bKHsD3TY code BALANCEDBEYARS ➡ Hummingway Cycle Soother Patches https://ourhummingway.com/product/cycle-soother-patch ➡ Thorne Phytoprofen (Swapped for IBuprofen or Advil) https://www.thorne.com/u/balancedbeyars ➡ Boiron Cycle Ease Line (Homepathics) https://www.boironusa.com/product/cyclease-cramp/?srsltid=AfmBOoqdsJxCWsSxEtLKhDgtNiDp7CnL-I0eYQ4g6vHmMHNazcQub0CU ABOUT US We’re Carly, Alaina and Julie Beyar- Three sisters, certified in Fertility Awareness and Hormone Health, helping women transform their menstrual health, fertility, and mindset.

    S2 E6: Carly's Breastfeeding, Co-sleeping, Baby-led Weaning Journey with Tatum

    In this heartfelt episode, Carly opens up about her 13-month breastfeeding journey as a work-from-home mom. She feels incredibly fortunate to have been able to stay home with her baby, avoid the challenges of pumping excess supply, and receive unwavering support from her husband. Carly recognizes that this set of circumstances played a crucial role in her breastfeeding experience. However, she also deeply empathizes with moms who face different realities, such as returning to work quickly, navigating daycare, and pumping in excess to be able to provide breastmilk to their children while they are not with them. We are passionate about addressing the issue that the modern mom often finds herself struggling as societal pressures overshadow the importance of trusting her own instincts. While doctors play a crucial role, it's imperative for us to reclaim our innate power and intuition in nurturing and raising our children. Our style of parenting is responsive, adapting to each child's unique needs and reminding us that the ultimate guide to what is best lies within ourselves. Each mother's journey is uniquely her own, shaped by a myriad of factors and circumstances. Our podcast and this episode aim to inspire and uplift all mothers, encouraging them to embrace breastfeeding, co-sleeping, and baby-led weaning with joy and confidence if they feel called to do so. Above all, it's a reminder to trust your intuition and do what feels right for you and your child, free from comparison. We're here to support you, heart and soul, on your beautiful journey. We hope to create a culture and community of mommas who feel empowered and educated by their choices, no matter what they are. TOPICS DISCUSSED →Carly’s 13-month breastfeeding journey as a working from home mom! →The importance of lactation consultants and support systems →Co-sleeping safely and effectively (and having a partner who is on board) →Balancing sleep, mental health, and night feeds →Transitioning to baby-led weaning →Carly’s gradual breast feeding weaning process and lessons learned →Tips for dealing with overproduction and managing supply →Carly’s reflection on her journey and future parenting choices EPISODE RESOURCES ➡ Shop WeNatal Prenatal and get FREE fish oil ($30 value) with purchase of subscription. https://wenatal.com/justaphase ➡ Nightlight Doula & Lactation Consultant https://nightlightdoula.com/ ➡ Safe Sleep Seven https://llli.org/news/the-safe-sleep-seven/ ➡ Huckleberry https://huckleberrycare.com/ ➡ Bodily Lactation lattes https://itsbodily.com/products/lactation-latte-3-pack ➡ Speech Pathologist Recommended Cups https://www.speechsisters.com/blog/bottle-to-cup ➡ Cocoon Nursing Wrap https://weareamma.com/collections/the-cocoon ➡ Kindred Bravenly Nursing bras https://go.shopmy.us/p-8446528
