Angel Wauthier is a Pregnancy, Birth & Breastfeeding Specialist and founder of Fruit of the Womb Perinatal Services. After two births ended in C-sections at 31 weeks followed by two NICU stays, she entered her next pregnancy knowing she didn’t want to simply hope things would be different—she wanted to prepare differently. That search changed not only her own birth experiences, but the way she understood pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding. Angel went on to have four vaginal births after two C-sections and discovered what would become the foundation of her work: pregnancy affects birth, birth affects breastfeeding, and better preparation starts long before labor. Today, Angel helps women—especially those coming into pregnancy after a difficult, high-risk, intervention-heavy, or disappointing experience—prepare for the whole journey. Her natural-first, physiology-centered approach connects pregnancy wellness, nutrition, body preparation, childbirth education, advocacy, breastfeeding preparation, lactation care, and infant support. Rather than simply hoping this time will be different, Angel helps women understand what they can influence, know their options, and prepare their bodies and minds for a healthier pregnancy, a more natural birth, and a stronger start to breastfeeding.
