My first time becoming pregnant, my partner and I, at the time, decided it was better for me to have an abortion. We had only been dating for about 3 months and we felt as though we wouldn’t be able to support a baby financially and we also felt that we just weren’t ready for the responsibility of raising another human being. In hindsight, it’s like our bodies knew we were meant to have children together and be together in general, because we’re now almost 6 years into our relationship and have a 1.5 year old daughter ❤️

It gave my life meaning again. I matter, we all matter.

during my pregnancy

My partner loves to learn about new concepts and ideas, and he brought to my attention that shrooms actually help rewire your the neurons in your brain, helping you connect ideas faster. Who wouldn’t want that? And shortly thereafter, I stumbled upon your page and you were advocating the microdosing of shrooms for mothers! I was at least one month into my pregnancy, I literally just found out I was preggers, and my partner and I were staying with a friend in Arizona. She actually had some but was afraid to take it alone, so we all took some. I did about a gram I would say and at first it was a rollercoaster of emotions. You feel your feelings 10 times more, if that makes sense. Afterwards, there’s a clarity about whatever it is you choose to focus on. At the time, I’m trying to wrap my head around being a mother, in a society that is trying to kill the family dynamics altogether. I also start looking into my past and being raised by my parents, I ask myself what kind of traumas am I holding on to? Because whatever they are, I have to work through them now, break some bad cycles, in order for my child to propel forward in this world.

Overall better mood

Yes

I became more aware and focused. My baby’s development is more advanced when compared to someone her age and slightly older.

I had to be more careful of letting my emotions get the best of me because when I would microdose, I was able to just feel more. So being able to find moments of stillness, is key. My daughter just became more aware of her surroundings, so sometimes it would be too much for her and I could feel her become overwhelmed, but I would just whip my boob out and she’d be fine the next second. Breastfeeding on demand is also key. I didn’t pump whatsoever, I believe whatever my baby needs in that moment is what my breast milk will provide for her. If I’m giving her, last weeks milk when she has a fever right now, her recovery will take much longer, then if I were to be breastfeeding on demand. I am extremely grateful I have had the opportunity to breastfeed on demand, but I believe every single mother should have the same opportunity.

None.

Her overall development in literacy, in emotional intelligence, in physics, she’s able to learn things, so much faster every single day! No exaggeration!
