What is a Postpartum Doula? And why everyone needs one.

from Womb Stories Project · host Kit Maloney

We live in an era of women over-giving and under-receiving. Data shows it is not working for us. Postpartum depression/anxiety is at unprecedented rates and we currently are offering new parents too few options for support. Listen in to hear an expanded perspective on what it means to receive in the earliest days of motherhood.  Season 2 of Womb Stories Project is a collection of interviews with the people who were involved in my conception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. It is for the listener curious about holistic and non-hormonal fertility treatments, the ins and outs of home birth, and how to thrive in postpartum.  Timestamps 3:21 - Connection through Vaginal Steam Certification 6:27 - Integration of Steaming Practices 12:50 - Magical Pregnancy Experience with Midwife 15:12 - Value of Community Support in Birth Care 17:32 - Journey into Postpartum Care 27:15 - Description of Postpartum Care Services 30:56 - Processing Birth Experiences with Doula 46:24 - Embracing Empowerment and Boundary Setting 1:00:32 - Nurturing Connection to the Womb Visit www.kitaralove.com for intentionally designed and expertly crafted products for safe and easy yoni steaming at home.  Connect with Kit on IG @bykitara Connect with Muriel on IG @heldpostpartum or at www.heldpostpartum.com
