How A Postpartum Doula Can Help Your Family
Most new parents will admit that navigating through those first few weeks after bringing your baby home is anything but easy! Even for the experienced parents, a new baby brings changing of routines, lacking of sleep and just trying to juggle it all.
The transition back home may be even more challenging if mom had a cesarean delivery or any birth complications. The problem that many families face is finding the help they need to support them through these first few weeks of their babyβs life.
Luckily, the help of a postpartum doula can be just the answer that these parents are looking for! Postpartum doulas provide assistance and support to families bringing home with a new baby.
A Postpartum Doula can help your family by:
Providing guidance with baby care, bathing and diapering
Light Housekeeping, doing the laundry and washing dishes
Preparing meals for the entire family
Caring for your baby while you sleep
Offering nonjudgemental and practical breastfeeding support
Providing sibling care (so you can perhaps take a nice, interrupted shower or while nursing your newborn)
Helping you find your new rhythm with routines and schedules
Providing encouragement and emotional support
Postpartum Doula Care is one of Baby Bloom's most beloved services, as we are firm believers in nurturing mothers as much as their babies.
Evidence shows us that new mothers who are nurtured both physically and emotionally have a greater chance of breastfeeding success, having a swift recovery, and a greater fight against postpartum depression.
