Topic: Thriving in the postpartum period
Location: TBD
Time: 11:00am - 1:00pm
"In our culture we believe the postpartum period is necessarily brutal: no sleep, sore nipples/bottom/belly, hormones making you crazy, both mother and baby crying, no time even to shower. . . . The postpartum period has such a bad rap that the word alone is becoming synonymous with 'postpartum depression.'
"In fact, that’s a big, fat, dirty lie, and it’s time to start disbelieving it. Yes, it’s true that sometimes it is brutal. But, my friends, it doesn’t have to be. Postpartum depression is not universal; it is cultural. In some cultures it does not exist. You can create a culture for thriving postpartum right in your own home! With the right attitude and a good deal of planning, it is possible to have not just an un-brutal postpartum period. You can have a magical one.
