SUMMARY:Seattle - Adjusting to Parenthood
DESCRIPTION:Adjusting to Parenthood is meeting virtually! Join us. No registration required – simply follow this link on Fridays at 11:30: https://zoom.us/j/92374601864 \nThis is a new mom support group\, offering additional support for the emotional changes and challenges of adapting to parenthood. Becoming a new parent can be overwhelming\, and it often takes time to adjust to changing roles and unfamiliar experiences. Good support can help ease the transition\, especially if it provides a place for new mothers to come together and express the reality of how hard parenthood can be. Adjusting to Parenthood is a place for women to feel heard and to be honest about the highs and lows of motherhood. It offers a supportive environment in which the full range of postpartum experiences is welcomed\, and the everyday realities of being a new mom are understood. \nAt the end of each group\, we offer a 15-minute question and answer on infant feeding\, infant development\, and infant and adult mental health. Come and get your questions answered! The group is appropriate for any mother who needs support to vent\, to process\, to hear other women’s stories\, and to learn that she is not alone. Expectant moms and moms with babies in arms are welcome. We have toys and space for crawlers and walkers and we welcome moms of older kiddos (up to 2 years) but we do not have separate childcare. \nNo Fee while we are meeting virutally
