Our Story
In 2012 we welcomed our second child, a healthy baby boy, into the world. Not long after, it became apparent that something wasn't right with Mom. It took several months of self doubt and mental anguish before seeking medical help for an eventual diagnosis of postpartum depression and anxiety.
Initially the doctors recommended anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medication with psychotherapy visits. While this initially eased some of the severe anxiety and depression, it wasn't long before symptoms became unmanageable again. At the time, not a lot was known about postpartum depression and anxiety. The stigma was real and was unfortunately causing additional anguish trying to raise a young baby while wondering why life and parenthood did not feel normal. The expectations of a joyous period of motherhood after the birth of a new baby was weighing heavy on our hearts because that was not reality.
Over the course of the first year after birth, Mom, baby, and family all suffered, but none more than Mom.
It was through this experience and the retrospective view of it, that a passion and desire was born. This desire is to help other mothers who may be struggling physically, mentally, or emotionally during or after child birth.
