Dear Pregnito,

It’s Mother’s Day and I’m sure you’re well aware. Right now, you’ve eaten more for brunch than you ever have on a pre-pregnancy day, researched registry items, gone over your birth plan again and again, and even looked into some maternity swimsuits for your babymoon. Sounds relaxing. Your husband has brought home flowers and is trying not to drop the ball by celebrating a new version of you. Because you’re a mom, right? And you deserve to be celebrated, right?

Oh no no no no no. You haven’t earned today, yet.

Although I never sought chiropractic care during pregnancy, I have come across many pregnant women who have asked about whether seeing a chiropractor could help them through their journey.
