"What does a postpartum doula actually DO?" is a question we get asked all the time!

Short answer: we "mother the mother" and take care of the household so that new parents can focus on rest, recovery and bonding with their new baby 💖

One of the most asked-about topics we get as doulas is babies and sleep! 😴

There is SO MUCH conflicting information out there and it's hard to know what's normal (and biologically appropriate) for infant sleep. That's why Sleep: The Early Days is one of our most popular workshops and we're happy to be offering it next week, on Monday, 7/13 from 6-8pm MTN time!

This *virtual* class is led by our much-loved pediatric sleep consultant, Becka, and you'll learn:

💤 What's normal for newborn + infant sleep
💤 How to gently lay the foundation for healthy sleep from the start
💤 What small routines can make a big difference for the whole family

..and more!!

Pssssst! Did you know that hand expressing while pumping (or after, to be more exact) can improve your milk yield?!

Here's how to do it: while the pump is working, gently massage and compress different areas of your breast, moving around to all quadrants. This stimulates additional letdown and helps empty the breast more completely. Some parents find that ending a pumping session with 1-2 minutes of hand expression gets those last ounces out. It may not seem like much, but those "bonus ounces" add up over time, especially if you're exclusively pumping or building supply!

P.S. if you need help with breastfeeding, pumping, introducing a bottle, latch troubles, etc. our certified lactation counselors are here to help! Give us a shout to schedule a 1:1 consultation 🫶
