Postpartum Isn’t Just a Phase—It’s a Transformation

Why the weeks after birth deserve real care and attention

The moment your baby arrives, something else is born too: you as a new parent.

But unlike birth, postpartum doesn’t have a clear finish line. It’s not over in six weeks. It’s not something you can “bounce back” from. And it’s certainly not something you should go through alone.

Postpartum is a transformation—physical, emotional, spiritual.You may feel exhausted, raw, in love, disconnected, empowered, or all of the above. Your hormones are shifting. Your body is healing. And your heart is stretching to hold this new version of your life.

As a midwife, I see postpartum care as sacred. It’s why I offer:

• Home visits to check your healing (and your heart)

• Lactation support and referrals as needed

• Gentle herbal/homeopathic guidance to soothe your system

• Compassionate listening for the real, messy parts of early parenthood

You deserve to be nurtured during this time—not just your baby.

Let’s honor the whole journey of birth, including the days and weeks (and months) that follow.

Honor Your Postpartum Transformation

Postpartum deserves the same reverence and support as pregnancy and birth. You're not just recovering—you're becoming. And that profound transformation deserves to be witnessed, supported, and celebrated.

My postpartum care recognizes that the weeks and months after birth are a sacred time requiring gentle, comprehensive support. I'm here to nurture you through this transformation with home visits, practical support, and deep respect for this powerful time.

FAQ Section:

Q: How long does the postpartum period really last? 

A: While medical postpartum is considered 6 weeks, the full transition into parenthood takes much longer. Some say a year, others say it never really ends. My formal care covers the first 6 weeks, but the transformation continues.

Q: Is it normal to feel overwhelmed during postpartum? 

A: Completely normal. Postpartum brings physical healing, hormonal shifts, sleep deprivation, and identity changes all at once. Feeling overwhelmed doesn't mean you're failing—it means you're human.

Q: How do you support the emotional aspects of postpartum? 

A: I check in on your emotional well being at every visit, provide a safe space to share your real feelings, help normalize the challenges, and connect you with additional support when needed.

Q: What if I'm not bonding with my baby right away? 

A: Bonding doesn't always happen instantly, and that's more common than people talk about. I provide non-judgmental support and can help you access resources if you're concerned about postpartum depression or anxiety.

Q: Do you support partners during postpartum too? 

A: Yes, I recognize that partners are also going through a major transition. I include them in postpartum visits, check on their well being, and can provide resources for partner support.
