The key to avoiding complications during pregnancy and after childbirth is to ensure high-quality prenatal and postnatal care. This involves providing personalized care services and support to address the specific needs of each woman, thereby safeguarding the health of both mother and baby before and after delivery.

Joining mom groups enhances social connections for both parents and children. These groups foster adult interactions, offering valuable conversations that can alleviate feelings of isolation. Additionally, mom groups frequently coordinate playdates, providing fun and essential social experiences for children. At our gatherings, we have experts in the field who cover various topics such as infant feeding, sleep, maternal mental health, physical recovery, nutrition, and more!

We recommend parents begin participating in these mom groups when their infant is between one and eight months old.

A key advantage of joining a parents' group is that it provides a supportive space for overwhelmed and isolated parents to connect with others facing similar challenges. In these groups, you can exchange stories, voice concerns, celebrate successes, and share struggles.

The month leading up to the birth is crucial for selecting a lactation counselor and verifying health insurance coverage. It's important to confirm that your insurance covers lactation counseling and to identify which counselors are within your network. Once you've chosen a counselor, you should find out how to schedule an appointment with them.

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that new mothers meet with their OB-GYNs multiple times during the first 12 weeks postpartum. The initial visit should occur within the first three weeks after birth.

• A pediatric sleep coach, also known as a sleep consultant, refers to a professional who offers education, guidance, and support to help enhance a child's sleep patterns.

While parents often believe that pediatric sleep consultants are most beneficial in the newborn stage, given that sleep issues are almost a universal challenge for new parents, it is recommended not to start any formal sleep training until a baby is between four to six months old.
