Many parents prepare extensively for birth, but very little time is spent talking about what life is actually like once the baby arrives. What is normal? What is not? How do you know if things are going well?

In this relaxed 1.5–2 hour session, we walk through what to realistically expect in the first days and weeks after birth. Feel free to invite family members and caregivers!

Topics may include:

• What newborn sleep and feeding really look like

• Feeding basics and positioning

• How to know if your baby is getting enough to eat

• Diaper changes

• Normal (but sometimes scary) newborn behaviours

• Sleep arrangements that best support parents and baby

• Physical recovery and care for mom

• Emotional changes in the postpartum period

• How partners can support the first weeks at home

My goal is not to overwhelm you with information, but to help you feel calmer, more prepared, and less alone as you enter this new season.

Because when parents understand what’s normal, the early weeks feel much less frightening
