Tucson PostpartumTrifecta: ALL your Postpartum needs in one experienced professional. Postpartum, Newborn Nursery, Mother/Baby, Couplet Care, Community/Public Health Registered Nurse:I have worked as an RN in all of these capacities and always give the same superior and passionate care in and out of the hospital/birth center and in home. As an RN, I use my training, education, observation and clinical skills in head to toe assessments to get a complete and thorough understanding of how the mother and baby are adjusting. Postpartum nurses wear several hats – advocate, assessments, patient and family educator, counselor, nutritionist, spiritual advisor and resource liaison. CLE (Certified Lactation Educator)
Obtaining this certification came naturally after working many years with families trying to get their baby off to the best nutritional start possible. I provide support by knowing the anatomy of physiology of lactation and assisting mothers with breast feeding, proper positioning, identifying signs of correct latch-on, recognizing feeding/hunger cues, assessing infant hydration status and pumping. I teach the mother about breast and ni**le care along with the importance of proper nutrition and rest. Help to make the partner and other family members feel included and give them tips to help support the nursing mother, as well as make appropriate referrals to pediatrician, lactation consultant and/or support groups. CPD (Certified Postpartum Doula)
My most recent certification demonstrates my desire to further nurture, educate and foster independence in families as they transition into their postpartum period. I like to say this certification is the cherry on top of my ever increasing postpartum knowledge base, which encompasses various aspects of my nursing training and other certifications. As a postpartum doula, I draw more from my emotional mom side and less of my medical side to be able to provide the reassurance, a listening ear, give an encouraging word, lend a helping hand and help the mother and family tap into their abilities and instincts. I also pay close attention to the development of postpartum mood disorders and will help clients screen themselves and make referrals to clinicians or support groups as needed. I respect the partner’s role and input and provide parents the tools they need to go forward with confidence. This is accomplished through personalized, non-judgmental support, that allows you to focus on what you really want – meeting your baby’s needs! My ALL inclusive, comprehensive, postpartum support is based on your individual needs. I bring the peace of mind and training of an experienced professional into the comfort of your home.

Let's HAVE some fun on one of the busiest travel days of the year!

Play along and share....

✈ How are you traveling? Where are you going?
🍗 Team Turkey, Ham, Vegan or All the Above?
🍠Team Sweet Potatoes or Mashed Potatoes?
🌽 Team Corn or Green Beans, by themselves or in a casserole?
🍞 Team Bread, rolls, fresh, sourdough, loaves? Butter or Jam?
🍰 Team Dessert: Apple Pie, Pecan Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Brownies?
🏉 Team Football, on tv fan or out playing in the backyard, school, field, etc?
🎅 Team Nap, Shop or Decorate?

We are flying to Colorado to see family, we will have both turkey and ham but I am a turkey fan, mashed potatoes and gravy ALL day long, corn, I prefer rolls with strawberry jam, warm dutch apple pie (made by my nieces) with vanilla ice cream, since my team isn't playing I will enjoy them all and I will likely nap or go for a walk after I stuff myself.

People are one of the only things that don't need to be plugged in to re-charge or fill our battery. What about a Gratitude Reset?? Pause, breathe and look around.

To ALL the people who have lost a sibling, this month is for you! Here is a poem I love written by SashaGautreaux💙

This month, we honor the brothers and sisters who love someone they can no longer see.
Some siblings don’t talk about the one they lost
Not because they’ve forgotten
But because they know the pain it brings up when they do
They feel it in the quiet moments
In the silence after birthdays
In the way their parents’ eyes shift when someone asks, “How many kids do you have?”
In the empty seat at the holiday table
They carry a love that never got to grow as big as it should have
They carry a grief that started before they even had the right words for it
November is Bereaved Siblings Month
So let’s remember to say their name
Let’s remember the kids who should’ve had a brother or sister standing next to them
Because their grief didn’t end when the casseroles stopped coming
It didn’t fade when the world moved on
They’re still carrying a bond that was never meant to be broken
Their story deserves to be heard
Their love deserves to be honored
And their sibling’s name deserves to be remembered
©️SashaGautreaux

I have had a lot of reminders lately and just received a special Christmas ornament with my son's name on it today. I love that November is Bereaved Siblings Month, as I don't think a lot is talked about regarding "siblings and loss." I do know that both my girls grieve in different ways. My oldest watched the resuscitation happen on her brother and has vivid memories of that night, while my youngest wasn't even born yet, but still grieves the brother she never got to meet. His memory is alive in our house; we have pictures all over, and my girls talk about their brother and call themselves Thing One and Thing Three. There are 5 members of our family and an empty spot in our hearts. Jensen will always be remembered and honored, never forgotten.

I love teaching Grandparent classes & this one included a CPR and choking refresher too. First grand baby and just got here from India. So much to learn but we laughed, I answered questions and everyone got practice on newborn basics as well. There are so many facets to my job that I love❤️. Everyone was willing but timid to try, ready to learn & eager to do it right. They were great students and it was very hands on & full of discussions. Excited to work with them once their baby arrives. When I returned home, my daughter needed a refresher to as she starts with a newborn next month.
