TAKEAWAYS
1. Plan for your postpartum time like you are planning for your birth. Think of the options you have available to you, find the support you need in advance, etc. 2. Be gentle with yourself (physically and emotionally) during this time. Your body is changing, your hormones are shifting, you're leaking, you have to try to care for yourself and your baby (and may your other older children), etc. 3. Listen to your gut. Our motherly instincts are spot on a lot of the time. Take other people's advice with a grain of salt and ultimately do what is best for you and your baby.
Nina, also known as “The Baby Chick,” is a baby planner, doula, newborn care specialist, educator, and mother. She has had the pleasure of supporting over 300 women during labor and childbirth and assisting over 700 families during their pregnancies and postpartum journeys over the past 11 years. Her training, certifications, and experience include: baby planning, birth doula care, postpartum doula care, massage therapy, childbirth education, newborn care education, infant massage instruction, prenatal fitness education, and more. It has been her passion to educate, inspire, and uplift mothers and this has become her mission at Baby Chick. Nina is the Editor in Chief and Co-Founder of Baby Chick, a digital media brand and pregnancy to motherhood resource.
