Getting ready to have a baby? It can be both an exciting and anxiety-provoking time. So much can happen during pregnancy, labor, and delivery and the only thing that’s truly predictable is, well, you’re having a baby!
In this course, we’ll teach you how to best prepare your mind and body so that you can feel as in control and grounded as possible during your birth.

Mamistad is where mothers come to celebrate the journey of pregnancy. If that journey is cut short for one of our sisters, our collective heart breaks. If she is denied proper medical care,
her suffering belongs to ALL OF US.

"You start out as a single cell derived from the coupling of a sperm and an egg...The mere existence of such a cell should be one of the great astonishments of the earth. People ought to be walking around all day, all through their waking hours, calling to each other in endless wonderment, talking of nothing except that cell."

BREASTFEEDING TIP: Keep taking our prenatal vitamis, get lots of protein and drink lots of water! You may feel more thirsty than ever - that's a good thing. Cold water never tasted SO GOOD! :)
P.S. Even if its not with Mamistad, please find a mom's group - when you're still pregnant if possible.
I've heard good things about pacemoms.org!

MAMI GROUP TIP: Significant Others should get involved too. After you've gotten to know your fellow group members, plan a call/walk or outing with your "support person". Whether its your spouse, partner, mother,father... it's important to share this part of your life with them too. When your baby arrives, they will join a COMMUNITY, and that's golden. ;0)
MAMI GROUP TIP: The most successful group members are those that reach out to their fellow Mamistad Group Members as soon as they are officially introduced via email. You'll be so grateful that if you make strong connections BEFORE baby arrives! :)
MAMI TIP : Snack Master! We all need one after baby arrives so, make your significant other (or whoever will be around most), our SNACK MASTER. They should keep your supply of go-to healthy snacks and plenty of water available. New moms get run down due to lack of sleep and we get headachey when we "forget to eat" bc we're so wrapped up in baby! Breastfeeding Mamis - you are literally eating for two! :)
Events Page
MAMI GROUP TIP : Schedule a weekly zoom call at the same time/day every week-then block it out! You need & deserve this time. Regardless of how many can make the call, make sure you check in with each member. :) *These calls are crucial when everyone can't meet in person!

MAMI TIP : The best Mamistad experiences are those of moms who RSVP for a New Member Zoom Chat as soon as they submit their profile. They get all the info they need right away and are sometimes in a group within a few days! Those who put it off because they are too busy preparing for baby often regret not having found Mami friends BEFORE they felt overwhelmed. :(
MAMI GROUP TIP : The most successful members are those that share openly and without judgment. We all have our ideas of how motherhood should go, but when we open our minds to our sister mamas, we learn that there's no one right way to be a mother.
It's not just you!
One of the toughest things about being a mom is
honoring yourself.
Motherhood brings vulnerability.
Support and friendship on this journey matter.
Kindness matters.
Your Mom Power sustains your children & family.
Collectively, Our Mom Power sustains the world.
Welcome to the Mamihood.
