2011 New Mother's Resource Guide

Welcome to the 2011 New Mother’s Resource Guide

WHO WE ARE
The original New Mother’s Resource Guide was created as a *volunteer project in 2008 by a group
of greater Seacoast mothers. Today the New Mother’s Resource Guide is a thriving resource for new
mothers and parents-to-be. It is also a valuable resource for new fathers, grandparents, 'seasoned'
parents and any one who has the remarkable responsibility of caring for a child.
The purpose of the New Mother’s Resource Guide is to promote the health and emotional
wellbeing of pregnant women, new mothers, and families living in the greater Seacoast area.
THANK YOU!
The NMRG would like to thank all of the local businesses and organizations involved in the 2011 New
Mother’s Resource Guide; without you we would not be able to provide greater Seacoast mothers
and families with the variety of valuable resources available to them.
We would also like to thank the families who make use of the NMRG. By utilizing the various local
businesses in the NMRG, you’re sustaining the local businesses in your community and we thank you
for doing so! Your support enables those businesses to support you in your journey through
motherhood and beyond.

direct marketing approach is particularly effective, allowing small businesses to advertise
throughout the greater Seacoast effectively and affordably! We are happy to structure a payment
schedule to meet your budgeting needs.
DISTRIBUTION
The NMRG is printed annually and distributed throughout the greater Seacoast (FREE) at select local
hospitals birth & health centers, local businesses/non-profits, town libraries, and Dr’s offices from
York, ME to Newburyport, MA. Additionally the entire NMRG is online. The NMRG was created for
and tailored to the needs of the families interested in your service and being distributed to them
through our effective networking efforts and direct marketing approach.
*The NMRG was originated in 2007 by Mary Beth Bloser, who led a team of mothers/volunteers to create the guide. The
original authors included Mary Beth Bloser, Andrea Rutherford, Angie Lombard, Christa Bellmare, and Carey Thomas. Angie
Lombard agreed to assume sole responsibility for the NMRG so it could be updated annually; she turned the NMRG into a
LLC in January 2009.

Motherhood brings as much joy as ever, but it still brings boredom, exhaustion, and sorrow too. Nothing else will ever make you as
happy or as sad, as proud or as tired, for nothing is quite as hard as helping a person develop his own individuality especially while you
struggle to keep your own. - Marguerite Kelly and Elia Parsons -

Disclaimer: The New Mother’s Resource Guide is meant to be a starting point for women in their journey through late
pregnancy and beyond. As you utilize the resources in within the NMRG, please know the NMRG does not endorse specific
providers or businesses. It is incumbent upon all of us to ask questions of, research, and learn about the people we let into our
pregnancy, birth and postpartum experiences.
Please note: We do not have every greater Seacoast resource available in the NMRG, but we are striving to get there! As
you might suspect, there are other resources available as well. We hope the resources available in the NMRG help make
your journey into motherhood a valuable learning experience.

Art, Music and Educational Children’s Programs
Pregnancy and postpartum are times of learning, adjustment, integration, and transformation. Parenting is an experience for
which we receive little training and preparation yet it can be the most challenging, rewarding and intense experience of our
lives. It truly takes a village of support for a family to thrive in this transition. Below are area activities to do with your baby to
both learn something new, get involved in the community, meet other parents, or to simply venture out for fresh air.

Breastfeeding Support
The ancient and natural act of breastfeeding is not always simply begun. With the
expert knowledge and resources of a lactation consultant, any bumps in the road can
be smoothed so the experience is comfortable and beneficial for both mother and
baby. In addition to the invaluable support of peers and family, it is important to make
connections during pregnancy with La Leche League and mothers groups so the
support is there when you need it after your baby arrives.

Doulas
The doula’s role is to provide physical, emotional, and informational support to women and their partners during labor and
birth. The doula offers help and advice on comfort measures such as breathing, relaxation, movement and positioning.
Perhaps the most crucial role of the doula is providing continuous emotional reassurance and comfort for both the mother
and partner. Postpartum, coming into the home during the fourth trimester- following birth- the doula’s role is to provide
education, non-judgmental support and companionship, to assist with newborn care and family adjustment, meal
preparation and light household tasks. Postpartum doulas are an extra pair of hands so you can focus on building strong
bonds as a new family.

Hospitals | Free-Standing Birth Centers
A hospital setting can accommodate a variety of birth experiences. In response to a push for more "natural" birth events,
many hospitals now offer more modern options for low-risk births, often known as family-centered care. These may include

moved.

emotional strength provided by having a support system. Joining a mother's group also has many great incentives with
rewards that will last a lifetime. It can be difficult for new moms to find a network of confidants after dividing time between
home, the many hat's we wear, partner and child. Below you will find mother's groups throughout the greater Seacoast.

Mental Health Support:

Women of every culture, age, income level and race can develop perinatal mood and
anxiety disorders. Symptoms can appear any time during pregnancy and the first 12
months after childbirth. There are effective and well-researched treatment options to
help you recover. Although the term “postpartum depression” is most often used, there
are actually several forms of illness that women may experience.
While many women experience some mild mood changes during or after the birth of a
child, 15 to 20% of women experience more significant symptoms of depression or
anxiety. Please know that with informed care you can prevent a worsening of these
symptoms and can fully recover. There is no reason to continue to suffer.

support during pregnancy, labor & birth, breastfeeding, and parenting can allow
parents to relax, enjoy these experiences, and be confident in their abilities to give birth,
feed and parent their babies. Overnight baby care can help parents get much needed
rest and sleep so they can function better for the demands of work, older siblings and
new baby care during the day.

Diagnostic medical ultrasound is often related with imaging babies during pregnancy, but that is just one exam it is used for.
Ultrasound is used to examine many parts of the body, such as the abdomen, breast, musculoskeletal, reproductive system,
heart and blood vessels. Diagnostic medical ultrasound is increasingly being used in the detection of heart and vascular
disease, as well as for the detection of injuries to muscles, tendons and ligaments. Ultrasound does not use radiation, unlike
many other imaging procedures such as x-rays or CAT scans. See ad below
