Who is Postpartum Care For?

Benefits and Why is Support Necessary?

 

Postpartum Care is for every Mother or Grandmother, whether you’re 3 days or 30+ years Postpartum.

Postpartum isn’t just the First 40 Days, it’s lifelong.

 

It can take years for your body to recover from pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, especially if you never received Postpartum Care.

And no matter how old your babies get, you will never not be a Mother again.

The support I offer is for:

  • Every Woman, Mother, Grandmother, Partner or Care Provider supporting or preparing to support a Postpartum Mother;

  • Pregnant women, their partner and primary support systems (mother, sisters, friends, community) planning for Postpartum. It’s so important that your primary support people, and everyone for that matter, know how to support and tend to Mothers, too;

  • First time Mothers planning for the traditional First 40 Days/Fourth Trimester Postpartum period;

  • Second time and beyond Mothers who didn’t have this as an option after previous births, and desire this care now;

  • Anyone in their first year Postpartum;

  • Support following pregnancy loss or abortion (the Womb also requires Postpartum Care following this time);

  • Outside of the first year Postpartum, much of the same care and resources can be applied, whether you’re 2, 10 or 30 years Postpartum. (If this is you, I’m here for you too. It’s never too late to receive nourishing support.

Postpartum Care should ideally begin during Pregnancy through planning and preparation in the second and third trimester. However the support I offer is adaptable to meet you where you are on your Postpartum and mothering journey.

It’s never too early, or too late, to receive Postpartum Care.

I support you based on the 5 Essentials of Postpartum Care.

WHY IS SUPPORT NECESSARY?

When a Mother’s most basic needs of being nourished, cared for and seen are met, she feels safe and secure, allowing her to rest, heal, and come back to her center with more ease and grace.

 

This also supports her nervous system in co-regulation, which supports her connection to self, her mothering, family, community, and beyond.

Mothers need to be mothered, too.

When a Mother is supported in these ways, she returns to a state of health, wellness, vitality, and expansiveness. This ripples into her family, community, and future generations to come.

To offer 1-on-1 compassionate support and care in this way is a gift I’m grateful for every day.

I have decided to deem the entire Month of May MOTHER’S MONTH, because one day simply isn’t enough.

This is why I am offering my Postpartum Care Packages (that are already on a Sliding Scale) at $100 off from May 15 - June 15, 2023!!

Imagine receiving compassionate, nurturing Postpartum Care in addition to (or instead of, your preference) a bouquet of flowers or brunch? May you ask for, and open to receive the care and support you deeply desire.

 
 

HAPPY MOTHER’S MONTH

MAY THE CARE AND HEALING OF YOUR WOMB ALSO HEAL YOUR MOTHER, SISTERS, GRANDMOTHERS AND ANCESTORS. MAY THE HEALING WE DO TODAY FLOW FORWARD TO FUTURE GENERATIONS.

With love, bliss and gratitude,

an exerpt from: “why is Postpartum Care a Necessity, and not a Luxury”:

Mothers and Grandmothers have been under-nourished, under-resourced and under-supported for generations, having a direct impact on the health and wellness of current generations.

When we look at how we have been caring for and supporting women and Mothers (or lack thereof) for the last 3-4 generations (although, this goes way farther back than that), a pattern becomes illuminated. During pregnancy, a woman is doted on and watched over at every step of the way from care providers, family, friends and generally respected by overall society.

Once a woman gives birth to her baby, all the focus, attention, gifts, gadgets and care is directed to the baby. Yes, the baby also needs a lot of care and attention, but ultimately if the Mother is well cared for and supported, the baby will also be well cared for and supported.
