A baby is arriving. A mother is becoming.
PREPARE FOR HER, TOO.
Most birth preparation ends at delivery. This workshop begins with what happens after.
Preparing for Postpartum™ helps you and the person supporting you move beyond vague promises to “help” and create a realistic plan for the first six weeks and beyond.
You will leave informed, but not overwhelmed.
The goal is not to predict every postpartum moment. It is to help your family recognize what matters, communicate before you are depleted, and keep the mother included in the care plan.
COME BEFORE YOU NEED THE PLAN.
Preparing for Postpartum™ is most useful between 30 and 36 weeks, although all gestations are welcome.
Attend with the person most likely to support you during postpartum—a partner, parent, sibling, friend, or chosen family member.
THE WORKSHOP ARC
Five movements. One Family Plan.
We move from understanding postpartum to making decisions your family can actually use.
01 - See HER
We begin with matrescence and recognize the woman becoming, not only the baby arriving.
02 - What the First Six Weeks Really Looks Like
Set realistic expectations from the first 72 hours through the early weeks of healing and adjustment.
03 - When Help Isn't Actually Help
Clarify what meaningful support looks like, who owns what, and how to communicate needs before resentment builds.
04 - Build the Family Matrescence Plan
Turn insight into decisions about responsibilities, boundaries, backup support, and reassessment.
05 - Beyond Six Weeks
Prepare for postpartum as a transition, not a deadline, and identify how your family will keep seeing YOU, the mother.
“The strongest postpartum plan does more than prepare for the baby. It protects space for the mother to recover, be supported, and remain visible.”
Dr. Mara, Sister-to-Sister Founder
