Peggy & Kim's Favorite Places to Shop Online
Birth Kit
Your birth kit contains all of the disposable supplies you will need for your birth and immediate postpartum period. The birth kit at EverythingBirth.com does not contain a bulb syringe. If you do not have a bulb syringe for your baby already, please add that to your kit order. If you are ordering from In His Hands, you may either call them at 800-247-4045, or if you prefer to order from their website, order a custom kit and put "Peggy Franklin" as your midwife's name.

Vitamins & Supplements
At eVitamins, you can find many of the nutritional supplements Peggy & Kim recommend during pregnancy. Here are some links to the more frequently used supplements:
Bulk Herbs, Teas, Tinctures, & Essential Oils
This is the place to get the bulk herbs for the pregnancy tea Peggy recommends. You can either buy the tea already assembled and packaged from Peggy, or you can purchase the individual bulk herbs and assemble the tea yourself. If you want to make the tea yourself, Mountain Rose Herbs has very high quality organic and conventionally grown herbs.
Diapers, Slings, Nursing Bras
Nurtured Family is a great "one-stop shop" for all sorts of things you will need for you and your baby. They have a great selection of nursing bras, nursing pads, cloth diapers, and a whole lot more! Nurtured Family has a great selection, and it feels good knowing that when you buy from them, you're supporting a family-owned business.
Herbal Remedies for Pregnancy, Postpartum, and Breastfeeding
Earth Mama Angel Baby is a great place to find high quality herbal and natural organic products for pregnancy, birth, postpartum, breastfeeding, and baby care. The owner, Melinda Olson, has been a personal friend of Kim Pekin (one of my students) since she started the business in her garage years ago. Everything they make is of the absolute best quality, and all of their products work extremely well. Kim's personal favorites are their Natural Nipple Butter, Angel Baby Bottom Balm, and all of their teas. With their beautiful packaging, they're a great place to shop for baby shower gifts too.
