I offer this care because I’ve lived it. As a mother of 20 years, a yoga teacher of 25+ years, and someone who has worked with hundreds of birthing people, I know how vulnerable—and powerful—this window is. Postpartum doesn’t need more pressure. It needs warmth, structure, and conscious support. I share why in my newest article—and how postpartum doula care can change everything. 👉 Read: Planning for Postpartum 🔗 https://www.annecatherineyoga.com/blog/planforpostpartum

Postpartum doula care begins before the baby arrives. Just like birth planning, postpartum planning helps you prepare for: • recovery • rest • nourishment • support roles • realistic expectations This is one of the most overlooked pieces of the perinatal journey—and one of the most impactful. I offer postpartum planning as a 1:1 session and as part of my doula packages, and I wrote about why this matters in my latest article. 👉 Read more in the Learning Library 🔗 https://www.annecatherineyoga.com/blog/planforpostpartum
We talk endlessly about birth plans.

Very few people talk about what happens after you come home.

Who feeds you?
Who sets up your space?
Who buffers well-meaning but overwhelming help?
Who helps you rest when everything in you wants to push through
We talk endlessly about birth plans. Very few people talk about what happens after you come home. Who feeds you? Who sets up your space? Who buffers well-meaning but overwhelming help? Who helps you rest when everything in you wants to push through? Postpartum doula care is about planning for real life after birth—not perfection, not control, but support. I wrote about this in depth in my newest article. 👉 Read more in the Learning Library 🔗 https://www.annecatherineyoga.com/blog/planforpostpartum

By taking care of her own health, a mother directly helps her baby. As a seasoned mother of twenty years, this still holds true. Taking care of the caregiver first (YOU) directly impacts your children. From initial postpartum healing to decades later mental health and overall wellness- YOU MATTER. Attention to your own health directly affects your children. Be tender with yourself Mama, you matter more than anything to your children. Quote is from For a Blissful Baby: Wisdom from Maharishi Vedic Approach to Health, a book written by Reddy, Egenes, and Mullins.
Sometimes the hardest part of postpartum isn’t being alone.

Sometimes the hardest part of postpartum isn’t being alone. It’s having too many people with opinions, advice, and very different ideas about recovery and baby care. A postpartum doula doesn’t replace family or partners—we help buffer the experience so support feels supportive, not hijacking. This is your sacred time to bond, heal, and become. I talk about this (and more) in my latest article on postpartum doula care and planning. 👉 Read it here 🔗 LINK IN BIO

Postpartum care is often framed around the baby. Postpartum doula care centers you. Your body has been opened—physically and energetically—to bring life into the world. Your nervous system is tender. Your identity is shifting. Life feels different now. Postpartum doula care isn’t about following a protocol. It’s about asking one essential question: What will support this person right now?

🤍 The Reality of Postpartum Recovery Part 1 of 3 Postpartum recovery is often talked about in milestones and timelines — but real healing rarely follows a straight line. In this first article of a three-part series, I’m naming what’s often left out of the conversation: the complexity, the tenderness, the physical and emotional layering, and the quiet ways postpartum can stretch far beyond the early weeks. This isn’t about fear or fixing. It’s about context, compassion, and realistic support — for bodies, nervous systems, and lives that have been profoundly changed. If you’re postpartum now, long past birth, or supporting someone who is — this is for you. 👉 Read The Reality of Postpartum Recovery (Part 1): https://www.annecatherineyoga.com/blog/realityofpostpartumrecoverypost1of3 LINK IN BIO to the LEARNING LIBRARY #PostpartumReality #FourthTrimester #PostpartumHealing #MaternalHealth #PelvicHealth #TraumaInformedCare #MotherhoodTruths #AnneCatherineYoga

You planned for birth. But have you plan for postpartum? Most birthing people are shocked by how intense the days and weeks after birth feel—physically, emotionally, relationally. Not because something went wrong. But because postpartum is a massive transition we’re rarely prepared for. Postpartum doula care exists to support this window—your recovery, your nervous system, your home, and your becoming. I wrote a new article on why postpartum planning and doula care matter so deeply—and why this support isn’t just for those “without help,” but for everyone. 👉 Read more in my Learning Library: Planning for Postpartum 🔗 LINK IN BIO #PostpartumSupport #PostpartumDoula #SacredPostpartum #FourthTrimesterCare #ConsciousMotherhood
