Diabetes in pregnancy is stressful. The pressure of micro-managing blood sugar 24/7 to keep you and your baby safe is weighty. But what if instead of a “health risk”, diabetes could actually be your opportunity?
The truth is, this life-changing experience could be your key to living longer, stronger, and more mindfully for years to come.
I’m here to show you how.
I’m Jessica Lynn, a seasoned midwife, perinatal diabetes specialist, and health coach who has lived the experience of diabetes in pregnancy.
Pregnant with my first baby, I was already an experienced birth professional with a long history of personal diabetes self-awareness. Not until I was pregnant did I realize how little I knew about what I faced, and how little anyone knew. It was a dark and isolating experience.
I want to change the isolation I felt, and raise the bar for us all by creating the care that’s missing. Diabetes is a chance for health on a higher level, if we have the tools. Pregnancy is an inspirational time, a time to look inward, to care for ourselves. This care can start before pregnancy and continue indefinitely. Family health begins in utero and continues for generations….but only if we have the opportunity and take it.
The wisdom I’ve gained through my personal and professional experiences is a gift, and I’m here to share it with you.
