Motherhood Support in Postpartum & Beyond with Alexa Martinez
There seems to be a gap in care when it comes to motherhood. We go to so many prenatal doctor's appointments and classes pre-baby, and after the baby is born, there are all kinds of services to ensure that the little one is healthy and cared for. But what about care for the new mom?
In this episode of The Worthy Mother Podcast, I talk with postpartum doula Alexa Martinez about the need for motherhood support in the postpartum period, and she shares what she is doing about it.
In this episode, Alexa and I talk about:
- The gap in care in the postpartum period
- Support systems for moms
- Postpartum mental health
- The importance of sleep
- How modeling self care impacts our children
A little about our guest:
Alexa lives in Frisco, Texas with her husband and 3 year old son. She has her Master’s degree in nutrition and believes in a holistic approach, with plenty of room for balance and real life. After becoming a mom, Alexa suffered from severe postpartum depression and anxiety. She and her husband ended up sleep training their son around 6 months old, and the extra sleep and schedules helped a lot with her depression. She ended up getting her sleep training certification with a goal to help new moms with their sleep, but quickly realized sleep is only a part of what can help! She then got her postpartum doula certification and began her business a few months ago with the goal of supporting new moms in all aspects!
