Merry Christmas!

One of the most "liked" posts in 2025 and a reminder for every day of the year: IF you do get the privilege—also make yourself useful!

Bring food, do the family's dishes, put the laundry away, walk the dog, give attention to the older kids, take out the trash...

A traumatic childbirth puts breastfeeding at risk. This 2025 exploratory secondary data analysis, however, found that compared with those who breastfed, the women who did not breastfeed after birth trauma had more depression and PTSD symptoms and a weaker bond with their baby. The study concluded that for better maternal mental health after a difficult birth, mothers need targeted, trauma-informed interventions to support breastfeeding.

When Survivors Give Birth

Here's the information and registration details for the upcoming When Survivors Give Birth workshop taking place March 26-27 at Newton Wellesley Hospital (it's possible to attend solely the first day, and not both). I would love to get the word out to as many perinatal professionals as possible!

Title: When Survivors Give Birth
Link: https://when-survivors-give-birth.ce-go.com/when-survivors-give-birth-foundational-advanced-clinical-skills-training-boston-2026
Date(s): March 26-27, 2026. Day 1 is Foundational; Day 2 is Advanced.
Times: 8:30-4:30 both days
Other notes:
CEUs offered
Some scholarships available

I would very much like to see a strong response from our local OB practitioner teams, given the nature of this enormously impactful training and the childbearing population we serve. Supporting survivors of childhood sexual trauma as they give birth themselves is a key tenet of great care, and this training provides excellent skills and resources to ensure we are doing this with intention and dedication.

Once again, the link to register is: https://when-survivors-give-birth.ce-go.com/when-survivors-give-birth-foundational-advanced-clinical-skills-training-boston-2026

Thank you again for helping me spread the word on this- please feel free to circulate to your clinical team!
