There is an overabundance of information about childbirth and parenting out there. I wish that I had such easy accessibility to resources when I was in this phase of life. I might have done things a little differently if I had only known that there were other options available. In providing these resources, I in no way intend to convey my personal opinions about any topic. I only hope to help you find resources and options that resonate with you. I believe wholeheartedly that every aspect of becoming and being a parent is so intimately individual and that we should all be supporting each other, not judging each other.
“There’s no way to be a perfect mother and a million ways to be a good one.”
