Ideas and Inspiration

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

Hello,

My clients are my inspiration.  The more I talk to and see them, the more ideas and inspiration I have. 

Lately there has been a common theme weaving through my clients and it’s one I can’t ignore.  It’s the lack of community and support new mums experience.  It could be something as simple as wanting people around with similar backgrounds to share familiar experiences to needing someone to listen without judgement whilst they tell their birth story.  Sometimes we just need to hear we are doing the right thing.  Maybe they just need a bit of TLC and a hug.

There also seems to be much misinformation and myth floating around new motherhood too.  The worst part is sometimes is completely contradicts itself.  This is really bad when you’ve had no sleep and feeling desperate.

So I’m doing a bit more research and need your help.  What were your greatest needs after having your baby?
