Yes
did you notice any benefits to a) yourself b) to your baby and what were the benefits when ingesting mushrooms while breastfeeding?
I feel like a completely different person so much less stressed out anxiety depression and ocd are at an all time low I am much more relaxed and present in my role as a mother I don’t loose my patience as extremely easy as I use .. it has been life changing. My son has always been easy going but before I didn’t appreciate and realize bc I was to stress out over everything else going on in my life worrying about insignificant things
did you notice any challenges to a) yourself b) to your baby and what were the benefits when ingesting mushrooms while breastfeeding?
The first day I thought maybe I had made a big mistake because I actually felt worse in every aspect of behavior I was trying to fix but j realized the mushrooms needed me to be at my worst so I could only get better from there

Much more easy going not so rigid and uptight ocd, not stressed out able to enjoy life and be in the moment .. not as over stimulated with messes and noise not feeling as touched o it as I did , less physical pain as well now that I think about it

None
what benefits have you noticed about your children that you attribute to the mushroom?
He is able to be a typical baby / toddler and not have me helicopter over him with ocd tendencies

Summary

what would you like to say to other mothers & pregnant/birthing people about your own experience?
If the mushrooms are speaking to you take them!! Best thing I have ever done and wish I would have started them way earlier in my life but I guess I needed to experience life without first!
would you recommend this path to other people?
YES! And I do even if people think I’m crazy lol ..
