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

SUMMARY:The Compassionate Friends Wenatchee Sharing Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Currently meeting virtually!  For information please follow this link. \nOur meetings are open to all bereaved parents\, grandparents\, siblings\, and friends. We are not here to judge\, or to provide professional counseling; we are here to offer our friendship and understanding of your pain and to learn from each other through our shared experiences. Our meetings provide emotional support and a safe place to express your feelings. You are free to share or just listen\, to cry\, and even to laugh over happy memories of your child. For some\, it may be the only place where they are able to talk about their child and their grief.\nAll comments shared will be kept confidential. \nThere are no fees for membership or to attend the meetings. \nWe have no religious affiliation even though we meet in a church. \nIt can take courage to make it to a meeting\, but we encourage you to attend at least three. You never know when you might meet the right person\, or hear the right words that will help you on your journey toward healing.
