4th TRIMESTER PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This is a valuable series which provides you with a wealth of education, community & support in your Motherhood journey!
Over a 6 week period we will cover the many questions and concerns that new moms have including share your birth story, dealing with sleep deprivation & baby’s sleep cycles, postpartum depression, community resources, your postpartum body and more.
The goal is for moms to interact, support & assist each other through this incredible time of transition.
It is so important to connect with other moms – to share in the journey of motherhood. It is easy to feel alone when you are at home, but in fact you are not – there is a whole community of mothers in the area experiencing the same kinds of joys and challenges that you are, who are just waiting to connect with other moms. Therefore, there is ample time provided before and after each class to linger, to meet old friends and make new ones, and to share the experiences and insights of raising a little one!

- Experience perinatal educator facilitating the series, including local professional experts some weeks. Weekly check-ins and Q&A to answer and support all your questions surrounding Motherhood.
- WhatsApp group for conversations, connections and sharing of resources outside of class time.
