We’re Parenting (Infant to Toddler)
Raising a young child is a monumental job, especially if you are parenting for the first time. It is not unusual to feel overwhelmed, as Postpartum Support International indicates 1 in 7 mothers and 1 and 10 fathers experience depressive or anxious symptoms following the birth of a child.
As mothers and fathers parenting young children, we at BecomingMom want to serve you and provide counsel as you begin to parent your newly born child. We know that the more you can take time to maintain your mental health and wellbeing, and receive support and helpful information from those around you, the more available and present you for your child.
Visit the CDC website to learn more about early developmental milestones your child will be hitting throughout their early years of life. https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/actearly/milestones/index.html. Be sure to consult with your doctors regularly and specialists on baby care as needed.
