“Being a birth worker is all about holding space.” @mamastobeto

Big love to all the babies who are now on the outside and the mamas dealing with the daily, & nightly realities of caring for them, along with caring for themselves in the transformative recovery. I hear from every single postnatal mother that they are apprehensive of nights at the beginning, especially in those first few weeks. It’s a lot of unknown. And you may only have the help of one other adult in the house. Please remember, this is not really physiologically enough for you to feel really…not just ok…but well. This is a cultural thing. And friends who have newborn mamas in their life? Send them some love and fatty protein filled food to eat at night. They need it.

This book cracked something open in me, or rather, found a soft smudgy place hidden away within, and whispered, “I know you; you know me; we are in this together.”

Client secretly snapped this at a recent prenatal visit. It was our first meeting in-person after working together for a few weeks virtual and I felt immediately accepted once big pup here fell asleep snuggled beside me.

This is what a prenatal visit can look like 🌿 @mamastobeto

Mamas To Be is about saying that in order to become the mothers we want to be in the future, we have to start being the women we want to become right now.

We can do better when it comes to raising the next generation, when it comes to supporting women in pregnancy, labour & postpartum, and when it comes to taking good care of ourselves right now.
