This Saturday is the 2nd gathering of Mama Meetups, a Women’s Circle dedicated to supporting pregnant and new moms (grandmas welcome).
As a retired birth nurse (and grandma), lactation consultant and CBE, I’m passionate about creating a safe, nurturing space for moms to discuss their options, values, needs and break free from cultural programming about birth and motherhood that keeps them feeling disempowered and in turn often leads to disappointing or even traumatic birth experiences. It's time for something better--Mothers deserve better and babies deserve better but it's confusing and hard to know what is truth and what is hype. That's why it's so important to have a place to talk about these important matters.
Concerns about getting the birth experience you want.
Worrying that you might be one of the many women who suffer with postpartum depression or anxiety.
Feeling like you don’t have many choices.
Wondering about what is best for you and what is best for your baby.
Wanting to talk more to your doctor or midwife but you don't feel there is time at the office appointment.
It is my goal, with your help, to create a community of women raising their consciousness around birth, babies and motherhood/parenting.
It is a free meeting in a circle like women have done for eons-- just honest discussion about the things important to you.
I look forward to meeting you at the next Mama Meetup at
