Planning for a Healthy Pregnancy & Helpful Hacks for New Moms

Once you’ve calmed down from the excitement of finding out you’re pregnant, it’s time to begin planning for a healthy pregnancy & motherhood!

Pregnancy tips for each trimester, postpartum care & having a newborn. Prepare for your new arrival, navigate morning sickness, speed up postpartum recovery & rock newborn care.

Real advice on how to prepare and budget for adding a new baby to your family, natural remedies for  treating morning sickness, and tips for making postpartum recovery easier (and quicker.)

Don’t forget the 4th trimester and caring for a newborn, calming a fussy baby who doesn’t want to be put or seems irritable, and properly caring for the new mom as she recovers from childbirth.

Below are dozens of helpful resources for when you’re pregnant and expecting, and as a new mother who is jumping into motherhood and caring for a newborn for the first time.

 

Online Childbirth Class 

If you are thinking of taking a prenatal class so you know what to expect for labor & delivery, this is an excellent online prenatal class geared towards couples (with personable videos for dads who have a short attention span or hard time focusing on birthing).

Hillary who teaches the online class, has been a L&D nurse for 16 years, and has attended close to 1,000 births. She addresses everything from what to pack, to how to you should feel about pooping during delivery. (And I guarantee it’ll make you feel WAY better after you hear what she has to say about it.) 

I don’t think (based on my own experience of doing this) that going to a traditional prenatal class when you tired in the evenings, and already so busy, is a necessity.

I do think if you’re pregnant for the first time, you would benefit from having an idea of what’ going to happen. Plus, you can take the online prenatal class from the comfort of your couch and most comfortable pregnancy pants.

Don’t forget to stock up on freebies for new moms and baby, too.
