For some, this stress is manageable but for many women the stress can be overwhelming and can lead to depression, anxiety, and challenges in taking care of a new child. Mothers and Babies is an evidence-based program developed by Northwestern University that is guided by cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment therapy to prevent postpartum depression. Join us as we start a new group in the coming weeks. Learn more about the program here: https://ow.ly/jzfh50Tz2AK

Today is the third annual TFMR Awareness Day. TFMR stands for termination for medical reasons and refers to ending a wanted pregnancy for the health of the pregnant person and/or baby/ies. Like other forms of pregnancy and infant loss, TFMR involves the death of a much-loved baby and wished-for future. There are often added layers of shame, silence, and legal, political, and logistical barriers that these parents must face, often with very little support, in their grief. TFMR Awareness Day began in 2022, founded by Emma Belle of TFMR Mamas, to raise awareness of TFMR loss and bring together a vetted and credible network of TFMR-specific, affirming, and safe organizations, support spaces, and resources for TFMR parents across the globe. The date was selected to honor her daughter, Willow, who was due May 4, 2021, but was born and died via TFMR in October of 2020. To sign up to participate and receive regular updates, just fill out the brief form at https://lnkd.in/gGGgAFAi. To follow along on social media, follow @tfmrawarenessday on Instagram.
