Parents are not the only ones going through a big change. For siblings, especially if new baby is a 2nd child, their world has changed dramatically and the family dynamic around them is like nothing they have known before. They may see their parents go up & down with the joy of baby and the strain from a sleepless night. They suddenly have to share their world. Some children are so very happy to help and play with this new baby that is theirs too and some struggle with this new baby pushing in and taking mommy & daddy's time & energy. Often a sibling will experience all of these feelings at unexpected moments. Sometimes we can anticipate the reaction and sometimes it is not at all what we expected.
As your Postpartum Doula, I will help create opportunity for you to spend that one on one time with your child. I can also spend time with your child so you can take time bonding with baby, take time for self care, take care of personal tasks...
