Where are my PUMPers at??? Have you ever used PumpinPals flanges before? What did you think about them? Let me know!

Haha! I love my job so much! Yes, texting with clients about p**p and what is normal vs. abnormal is definitely part of it! 🤣

Did You Know... On day 1 of life, a baby's stomach can only hold 5-10mL of colostrum, the first and most important milk! That means their tiny tummies are only the size of a cherry ❤️

When I show up at a new family's home, the back of my t-shirt reads: "Support comes to you..." 🩵 That's my job as your Postpartum Doula! While I'm in your home, I am there for YOU first and foremost 🤱🏽, then your baby 👶, your family 👨🏿‍👩🏿‍👧🏿‍👦🏿 and your household 🧼. I will absolutely fold your laundry if that is what you need! 😅 Message me if you are looking for support during your postpartum or grab a gift card for a friend or family member here: https://squareup.com/gift/MLRTERBKJH2XA/order

💙The new BlueDot Project program, BlueDot Safe Spot, will focus on reaching and educating medical practitioners and their office staff on Perinatal Mental Health and the pathways to mental health support for their patients. It will create “Mental Health ‘Safe Spots’” for parents throughout the pregnancy, postpartum, and post-loss period.

💙Participating medical offices, community health centers, clinics, high school nurse’s offices, etc., will take Perinatal Mental Health training to ensure they have the appropriate knowledge and language to properly support perinatal patients. The goal is for anyone who may come in contact with a patient in the perinatal period to have the basic knowledge and awareness to better support them. After training, they will be identified as BlueDot “Mental Health” Safe Spots and showcase the BlueDot in their offices, on their website, etc.

💙BlueDot “Mental Health” Safe Spot program will start the conversation between practitioner and patient, allow the practitioner to confidently follow up with support and resources (through PSI services), and provide general awareness around Perinatal Mental Health and TheBlueDotProject.

Friends, meet my talented colleague and friend Keeley Bruner and her newly released collection of poems. 🩵💕🩵 Keeley has a knack for capturing the smallest moments in time, the blink of an eye, the fleeting thoughts that I find flit quickly out of my reach as I race through my often hectic days as a parent. I would highly recommend this book to you, and anyone from your expecting friends to your family who have passed into the grand parenting stage. A beautiful written collection of all the little pieces of a mother’s heart all in one book…. Thank you Keeley! 🤗🥰 Please share!

Another sweet baby girl was born into our Embraced family! Coordination of care with the family's community providers has been key in ensuring mother and baby's health and healing. With the combination of Lactation and Postpartum Doula support, this family is thriving and their needs are being met. 🩵🤍
