Pregnancy

A normal pregnancy lasts about 40 weeks before the happy day of childbirth arrives. The gestation period, or pregnancy, is divided into 3 trimesters, with specific developments for mother and baby during these stages.

Each trimester is roughly divided into 12 weeks, with each trimester having a unique period of bodily changes.

During the first 12 weeks of pregnancy due to hormonal changes, your breasts will become swollen and tender, digestive upsets accompanied by episodes of nausea and vomiting may occur.

Food cravings or aversion to certain foods might arise, and you could also feel unusually fatigued.

Most of these symptoms will begin to disappear during the next 12 weeks, as your uterus and abdomen begin to expand to accommodate the growing baby. Some aches and pains will be normal and you will feel the first fluttering movements of the new life developing.

In the final trimester of pregnancy, as childbirth approaches, feelings of discomfort might arise, as your baby drops lower into the abdomen, preparing for birth. Some swelling of ankles, fingers or face, would be normal before childbirth, although any abnormal swelling might indicate some nutritional deficiencies.

Each trimester has specific nutritional needs, ask your practitioner for advise on the correct nutritional treatment protocol.

Labour And Childbirth

Many women are afraid of labour, childbirth and the pain they might have to experience. The fact is that with natural childbirth, a pain-free labour and delivery experience will not happen.

Every woman is different, both emotionally and physically. Some are better equipped than others to tolerate more pain, or perhaps have a shorter labour and childbirth timespan. It is important to note that no matter what your situation may be, there are many natural ways to alleviate and reduce pain levels.

Remember that verbal, or even hands-on support and encouragement from your partner, can be of great benefit to ensure that your baby is born successfully and gently into the world. If you are a single mom or there is no father of the baby present, then a family member or good friend can step in to the gap and give you the support you need.

Breastfeeding

Although you may feel tired and somewhat weary, it is advisable to start breastfeeding as soon as possible after birth.

Breastfeeding requires patience and practice, and though it happens naturally, it is a skill which has to be learned. Learning stages can become frustrating, especially if the baby is born early, or the mother suffers some unexpected health problems.

If it is at all possible, persevere through difficulties. Breastfeeding is very beneficial to both mothers and babies. Therefore, natural nutrition and immune building, as well as the ultimate bonding experience between mother and baby is pivotal. Breastfeeding can help protect your baby from illness and infection and reduce the likelihood of allergies.

How We Can Help You?

At Solutions To Health, headed by Dorota Wroblewska, a renowned expert in all fields of natural health treatments and therapies, we offer extensive support programs for pregnancy, labour and childbirth, as well as breastfeeding and postnatal care.

As your pregnancy progresses and the baby develops, the Pregnancy Program will focus on your particular dietary and nutritional needs. We concentrate on each trimester separately, and treat each one accordingly, as each trimester has specific nutritional requirements which your practitioner will recommend.

With your health optimised, our Childbirth Support program assists you in the preparation of your body for labour and childbirth. The risk of complications is reduced or prevented, as the time for this life-changing experience arrives.

Our labour preparation phase provides expert advice on ensuring the correct and adequate nutrients.

The final phase of the journey is the Post Natal and Breastfeeding Support Program, which promotes easy accepting of breastfeeding stages, leading to a strong connection between mother and child.

Solutions To Health Post Natal Support Program deals with any breastfeeding problems which may arise. We also provide compassionate, qualified counselling and support for post natal depression and anxiety issues.

Solutions To Health have a referral network to every kind of pregnancy specialist, thus ensuring the best preconception care, through pregnancy, childbirth, and post natal issues.

Success Stories: My first birth had been long and difficult and I was hoping Dorota’s herbs would help speed up my second labour. And speed it up it did! My contractions started at 9pm and Bowie was born at 1am… It was an incredible experience with steady and consistent contractions. I was completely surprised at how smooth my labour was and again I put it down to Dorota and her Partus-prep herbs. Thank you Dorota for your wisdom and guidance, I am eternally grateful.

We went to Dorota after struggling with infertility for about 2 years, right after visiting a fertility doctor that provided us with absolutely no insights as to what's wrong. One of the first things Dorota said to us was no infertility is unexplained or without cause. She patiently analysed our blood tests, prescribed supplements and most of all provided us with the care and support we needed through this very difficult journey of infertility. We are now 33 weeks pregnant and we couldn't have made it so far without Dorota's guidance and experience. We couldn't recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much Dorota!

Dear Dorota, Thank you so much for all your support, wisdom and knowledge during this pregnancy! You've played a huge role in making sure everything goes as smooth as possible and I thank you from the bottom of my heart! Whenever I come across women who are dealing with the hardship if a miscarriage, your name is on my mind and I always tell them how much you've helped me! I would highly recommend Dorota for any issues related to women's health.

Dorota is an exceptional practitioner. I struggled for years with severe endometriosis and the accompanying infertility and fatigue etc. that followed. My goal seeing her was to improve My general well-being but also to have a baby. I now have a beautiful healthy, super alert and active 9 month old boy which we conceived following Dorota’s advice. She doesn’t just give you pills like other naturopaths, she investigates your symptoms and medical results to provide you with supplements and advice tailored to your body. I noticed results within 4 months, reduced fatigue, improved focus and less pain, and after following her recommendations regarding medical specialists fell pregnant 2 months later. I tell everyone I know to go see her and can’t recommend her enough. It’s hard to find someone who balances evidence based practice with complimentary medicine and naturopathy, thank you Dorota!

Dorota has been a life saver who has helped us with the challenges of infertility and as well as helping with my endometriosis and hashimotos. After following all her recommendations we fell pregnant naturally at 39 and now have a beautiful 9month old baby girl. I highly recommend Dorota to anyone affected by infertility, pregnancy and auto immune issues as she really does make a difference.

Dorota offers really good advice and a different way of thinking about PCOS. There are no drastic, scary recommendations like some fad diets offer. Usually women with PCOS get so fed up that we go for the newest dieting craze (I'm so guilty of that!). She spoke with me and came up with a plan that's realistic and shows proven results.
