Postpartum Planning Session
You are expecting a baby. You can’t wait to meet her and finally holding her in your arms. You are getting ready for the birth deciding carefully what will be part of your birth plan. You are buying baby gear and decorating your future baby’s room. You want to feel the most prepared possible for the arrival of your new child. But have you thought about how you will adjust to life with a new baby? How do you envision the beginning of your journey with your new baby? Do you feel prepared and confident? Are you aware of a variety of resources you will need to ease your postpartum transition? Do you want to reduce the stress that can come with your new reality as a parent?
It is important to plan for the birth of your baby. You also want to make sure you have everything to take care of her needs when she is there. It is as important to plan for the postpartum period. You want to make sure your family will have all the resources needed to adjust well to this new transition. That’s why taking the time to create a postpartum plan is an essential exercise to do. It helps you identify resources that you will need as a new parent. And doing this before you are too busy taking care of your newborn is the best way to go.
