Postpartum Isn’t Just the Baby — It’s You Too

“We need to center the birthing person, too—not just the baby.”

So often, the focus after birth shifts entirely to the newborn. But at Philomena Birth, we hold space for you—your healing, your identity, your emotional landscape. Postpartum is a huge transition, physically and emotionally, and it deserves the same care and intention as birth itself.

In this podcast moment, Mary shares why postpartum support must be person-centered. From listening without judgment to offering a nourishing meal or extra set of hands, our doulas are there to remind you: you matter deeply. You are still becoming, still worthy of being cared for.
