Navigating New Motherhood

It’s been a busy few weeks here at Jocelyn Wells Postpartum Doula and November is shaping up to be even busier!

I was an exhibitor at the Stork and Stroller Show with my amazing friend and doula sister Tina from Madelina Birth & Baby. It was so great to meet with so many expectant parents in the KW area and chat about all things baby and postpartum. We’re incredibly lucky in this area to have so many local businesses for new and expectant parents!

I’m also working with the amazing team at Two Rivers Health on their integrative prenatal course. This is by far the most comprehensive and informative prenatal course I’ve ever seen and it’s amazing value for the price point! You’re hearing from a labour doula, a naturopathic doctor, a chiropractor, and a postpartum doula (yours truly). Hopefully they will offer a second session so you can check it out.

What I’m most excited about is my upcoming event – Navigating New Motherhood. Honestly, what I craved most from my early postpartum days was the opportunity for real connection with other moms. I wanted to talk to those people who would enthusiastically shout ‘me too’!!! I wanted to talk to people who had been there before and who knew what it was like. I craved the community of other new moms.

It is with this intent that myself, Jess from Our Mama Village, Lucy from Fit & Eats, and Dr. Antoinette from Two Rivers Health created this event. This is a night of real talk with real moms. We are sharing our experiences and our expert information on topics like:

• dealing with mom guilt
• recognizing postpartum mood disorders
• preventing mom burnout
• breastfeeding and formula transitions
• thyroid and adrenal conditions
• your postpartum body
• nutrition and healthy eating
• and much more…

In the postpartum period people often talk about ‘going back’. You try to get your pre-baby body back. You try to get some piece of your old life back. Here’s the newsflash: you can’t go back. And really, you probably don’t want to go back to that time without your baby.

So, Antoinette, Jess, Lucy and I are here to help you find your way forward and embrace your new life as a new mom.

Join us on November 13!
