BeHeld New Parents Group
Beheld is transitioning to new facilitator-ship while I finish out midwifery school! Stay tuned for updates.
Join Christine Gibson & Sarah-Grace Sweeney, facilitators who've supported hundreds of families through their births & postpartum journeys as we create space for juicy conversations and community building during your postpartum time. We are doulas, lactation counselors…plus one of us is a student-midwife (SG) and Christine is a mom (twice over!).
This 6-week virtual support group meets once a week in the mornings. Each week is (very loosely) themed so we have a jumping off point for our conversations. We talk about lactation & feeding, baby developmental milestones, sleep woes, postpartum recovery & being at home in your body again, finding childcare, navigating new relationship dynamics with partners and family, and birth stories. Generally speaking, group is geared for parents 0-4 months postpartum, but we aren’t strict about it either.
We’ve set a suggested donation of $150 for all six weeks, but you are free to pay any amount that’s comfortable and doable for you. We won’t turn anyone away based on ability to pay. You can find discount codes below, along with the links to pay for your chosen session.
Weekly Topics:
Week 1: Birth Story Sharing/Processing
Week 2: Feeding, Sleep, & Baby Development
Week 3: Postpartum Body Image & Wellness
Week 4: Postpartum Intimacy
Week 5: Friendship & Family Dynamics
Week 6: Beyond the 4th Trimester (work, childcare, you name it)
