I am not a medical doctor. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I researched on my own time to find these suggestions. Please do your own research before trying. I do get affiliate earnings when you click on my links. These are at no cost to you and even save you money by using them. Pollen, grass, mold, cedar, ragweed and even some chemicals we breathe in start to bother us in the form of seasonal allergies once they have entered our bodies.

This hasn’t always been the case and it really caused us to struggle mentally. Now that we’ve seen the positive benefits, I aim to shout from the roof tops just how important self care is for moms (and Dads) pulling their weight raising babies! I’ve learned that self care isn’t “me first” it’s “me too.” We all deserve it and if you…
