“I met Lauren when she was midwife to my sisters second and third child. Witnessing their home births was a truly beautiful experience. So when my husband and I found out we were pregnant I knew I wanted a home birth and I was certain I wanted Lauren as my midwife. I immediately reached out to her and met with her a couple times in the first trimester. Unfortunately at about week 9, the ultra sound showed no heart beat. Completely distraught and grief stricken, Lauren offered hope and individualized solutions that slowly helped me out of my dark place. She used her decades of experience to educate me on natural ways to help my body pass what I knew was a non viable pregnancy and even offered a grief massage. Eager to get pregnant right away and considering IVF options, Lauren helped me to be patient with the fertility process and educated me on ways to better prepare my body and mind for natural pregnancy. She crafted custom tinctures and herbal blends that I personally believe were all instrumental in the success of my next pregnancy. She was thorough with routine house and office visits, labs, and food/exercise logs. It gives me to much joy to write this review while my son sleeps soundly next to me. When he was born Lauren and her team were at my home within 20 minutes of my husband calling to let her know I was in labor. Lauren and her entire team were truly amazing. Giving birth put me in the most vulnerable state I’ve ever been in. Lauren and her team made me feel confident and safe during the whole process. I highly recommend Lauren and the Madre Luz team for midwifery, fertility, pre and postpartum care.”
