There is no right way to give birth. Being educated on your birth is a high priority.

When parents recall their births, I often hear information that makes me question how well they understood the process. It’s not to invalidate what they experienced. More to learn how I can educate parents-to-be more effectively.

Anyone can recite information from a book, but having an educator who thoroughly understands the process from years of bedside experience matters.

Childbirth education classes (as well as baby care and breastfeeding) are open for registration at www.newmomschool.com/shrewsbury-nj/

**classes can be taken individually or as a bundle**

It’s like the oxygen mask on a plane. You cannot take care of your baby if you cannot breathe first.

Research supports our S.E.L.F. model: Rest, (Sleep), movement (Exercise), nourishment (Food), and restorative pleasure (Laughter/leisure) all play a critical role in postpartum brain health and emotional well-being.

💜Better sleep is tied to lower postpartum depression/anxiety

💜Postpartum exercise is linked with fewer depressive and anxiety symptoms.

💜Adherence to a brain-healthy eating pattern is associated with lower odds of postpartum depressive symptoms

Who you hire for your prenatal education and postpartum support matters. I still work bedside in Labor and Delivery and Lactation. I have worked in a level IV, high volume hospital down to a Birth Center.

I can comfortably say I’ve had the privilege to be a part of thousands of deliveries and support hundreds of postpartum families .

The birth world is filled with many certifications. The experience of who you trust with your education and postpartum support matters.

Classes are open for registration at www.newmomschool.com/shrewsbury-nj

Lactation consultations are available at www.birthsbabiesandbeyond.com

Great example of how positioning matters in labor. Bringing knees in and ankles out, opens the outlet of the pelvis allowing the baby to descend easier.

How often did you change positions during the pushing phase of your birth?

Social media makes you believe you need a lot of “stuff” to take care of your newborn. Your newborn needs YOU. They need your warmth with skin to skin. They need to feel safe and secure. They need you to respond to their cues.

Taking prenatal education classes is vital to understanding your baby. Learning what is normal vs concerning, understanding that crying is communicating a need and that hunger has a separate language is huge. Realizing that movement and white noise is comforting.

Registration for all our prenatal classes is open now!
