Activity Discussion: Your baby holds a special power of healing💓 There are so many benefits to holding your baby for their needs and healing of course, but did you know how beneficial it is for you as a mother? ⬇️
Here are some topics to chat about with friends at your nesting party:
🪻 Increased oxytocin: that good good feeling
🦋 Connection with your own needs: wearing your baby allows for you to be hands free which often times gives you a minute to think “what do I need?”
🌷 Cozy energy: restless mommas are often more willing to sit, lay down and rest when their babies are snuggly on them
💖 Understanding of your baby’s cues: the more we are near our babies, the more we notice what they are communicating (this takes time!)
🧺 My Doula Basket Tip: make this activity a mother’s circle with new mommas and seasoned mommas. Ask your trusted friends for their words of wisdom of motherhood at your nesting party.
⭐️ more topics to discuss at your nesting party:
1. how to share with family, friends and partner about your mind and body needs to snuggle with your baby?
2. how to allow (meaning release the guilt, shame and control) others to do the things around you so you can rest?
3. why hire a doula? 🤍
4. how to create a very minimal clean space to rest with your baby?
5,. how to wear a solly baby wrap! i love doing tutorials with new mommas at nesting parties. It creates such a bonding experience with friends.
