It is World Breastfeeding Week! WABA coordinates the global World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) campaign that aims to inform, anchor, engage and galvanise action on breastfeeding and related issues.

If there is one thing that remains true about lactation and feeding our babies, sensitive support matters! We at Birthways would love to get you connected with one of our lactation consultants. Reach out to us today! https://birthwaysinc.com/breastfeeding-lactation/

The amazing transition in our bodies and in our outer reality shift day by day when we are moving into and through early parenthood.

We aren't meant to do this alone.

Doulas are here to provide continuous support for your mind, body and family as you navigate this special time.

How you feel matters.

The nervous system and endocrine system responds and releases hormones based on how you think and FEEL.

The neurotransmitters released play a key role in how you experience this important time.

May you make space to feel into what is right for you in your body, heart and mind!

The essence of parenthood is grounded in the unwavering commitment to nurture, protect, and support our children.

How we are received and welcomed in our coming out journeys matter.

As we raise our young children, can we make a commitment to see them and love them just as they are? This Pride Month, we invite us all to consider how we can create a safe and loving world where every baby can be seen as amazing at 2 and at 20!

Together, let's continue to march forward in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights, ensuring that every family is treated with dignity, respect, and equality under the law. Happy Pride Month to all LGBTQ+ parents and families!

What steps do you believe we can take to better support and celebrate the experiences of LGBTQ+ parents during Pride Month and beyond?

To all the parental figures out there, we celebrate you today and every day. Let's take a moment to reflect: What's the most cherished memory you have with your dad or father figure?
