Welcome to Part 2 of our 'Postpartum Realness' series! In this episode, we dive into the raw and transformative postpartum experience, sharing real stories from our listeners about what surprised them most after birth. From sleep deprivation and breastfeeding struggles to postpartum mental health and the emotional duality of new parenthood, we explore the highs and lows with honesty and compassion. As midwives, we also discuss how the holistic midwifery model supports parents through these challenges, offering insights into newborn bonding, maternal recovery, and the importance of community care. Whether you're planning a home birth, seeking postpartum support, or simply curious about midwifery care, this episode is for you!
If you like what you get here, you'll like our online childbirth education course even more. It's a more detailed look at the stages of labor, how to cope, and what to do along the way to set yourself up for success. It also shows partners what to expect from their point of view and what they can do to support you in labor.
