Our first Moms and Babies Wellness Gathering was so fun! 💕 We’re incredibly grateful for Courtney and Miranda, who shared their knowledge and passion with all of us—it wouldn’t have been the same without them. Thank you to everyone who joined us for a morning filled with connection and learning. We can’t wait to see you all at the next one!

A few takeaways:
- Have a birth plan so you can be prepared for pregnancy AND postpartum - which a doula can help you with !! 😌
- There are plenty of options for each little thing during pregnancy and birth, but the most important thing is that you feel educated and empowered in what decision you do make along the way.
- There are plenty of ways dad can be involved in the birthing process from massages, to emotional support and keeping you on track with the birth plan.
- It truly takes a village to support mom in postpartum, so have those connections and resources before you give birth so you’re not scrambling at the last minute!
