Answers to questions that may come up in the moment.
During my time volunteering for Baby Blues Connection, I watched women suffering from perinatal mood disorders. I could see a missing link. The birthing community.
When issues would arise, new mothers didn’t know the extent of what was available as a resource, while losing valuable bonding time.
I wanted to make a change. Since I was a photographer in PDX for many years, photographing maternity, birth and newborns, I knew what phenomenal birthing professionals Portland has to offer.
While interviewing these practitioners on video, I have learned so much about wellness and am so excited for you to be informed by these passionate professionals dedicated to postpartum health.
Our support comes in the form of easily digestible videos. With so much dense information, we want to start by breaking it down by subject. It is so easy to go back to certain videos regarding a certain topic.
This will provide comfort by giving parents what they need to thrive. Our multi-cultural trusted practitioners are generous enough to share an array of tips and tricks to learn from thus creating time to rest in the first forty days, your way. I know you will fall in love with them as much as Portland has.
We Create Joy.
While the birthing parent is in recovery from childbirth, finding the best way to find the nutrition you need, lactation tips, sleep facts, and what the birth community is. This reliance on support is so important in combating isolation.

Take Care of Yourself
What is the most important thing during this time? Rest. How do you get to rest during this time? Answers.
I have heard this time referred to as ‘unexpected’. It can be so stressful to navigate postpartum and to not forget about yourself.
Watch/Learn On Your Schedule
You can sit back and access these videos at any time. Over fifty videos are set up to assist with all the essentials to know during this sometimes overwhelming following birth. This is not a place of judgment or pressure to do it one way. We want you to find your own way but hearing about what works for you.
We hope for you to create relationships with wellness providers during your parenting time to assist you with all of your family’s growing needs. Including self-care for the birth parent and ways to support your baby to be well.
Health and wellness with modalities such as nutrition and exercise can make a profound impact on our lives. We all want our bodies to run well so we don’t miss anything, and our kids to have the best possible environment for longevity.
If you have questions, please contact us. I will be happy to clarify the curiosities you have. I want you to know what you are going to love and why.
