8 Crystals to Support Fertility, Pregnancy & Birth
The journey through fertility, pregnancy, and birth is beautiful, complicated, and is above all else emotionally draining. Whether you are trying to get pregnant, working through fertility issues, in your second trimester, or preparing for birth, you are bound to experience a wide variety of emotions and stresses.
And while there is so much positivity in the journey, it’s nice to have a little extra assistance. Thankfully, Mother Earth is there to help!
I truly believe that every woman can use a little more support during these times. So, I’ve rounded up the 8 crystals I believe are perfect to assist you through it.
