Congrats on your new baby!
I remember just how tough those first months can be with a new baby! I was tired, lonely, and missed my social time. This is why Shannon Lee (Blessed Births and Beyond) and I started this support group in Waukee. We wanted to create a space where new moms can come together and chat about all things motherhood!
While all new mothers are welcome, we want to share that both Shannon and I have lactation certifications. We are happy to help answer questions and provide assistance if we can. We will have a baby scale available during the group time. I also recently bought a breast pump suction tester so bring your pump if you’d like to see if it’s working at it’s maximum level too!
We have a private space in the back room of our office space with a rug, floor pillows, blankets, boppy pillows, and more. At this time, we would encourage you to leave your older children at home. Unfortunately, we just don’t have the safe space for them in our group space.
Who: Any new mother and their baby under one year of age–they do not have to be newborns! Twins are welcome too. We have extra hands for extra support snuggling!
What: A relaxed, laid back support group where new moms can offer their compassion to other new moms and share what’s going on in their lives.
Where: Waukee Wellness & Chiropractic (my husband’s chiropractic clinic) 710 SE Alices Road, Waukee IA (near The Coffeesmith)
When: The first and third Fridays of every month
