About this Event
Some parents welcome their baby into the world having never held a baby, changed a nappy or even seen a newborn before.
We're here to help you into this new chapter by demystifying the first 72 hours, decoding some newborn behaviours, from feeding cues (before crying) to bathroom habits and soothing.
You'll hear from a international board certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) on feeding, particularly in the first few days, including breast and bottle. And you'll be shown infant care basics and safe sleep by a doula and a midwife with the opportunity to get hands on experience with those finicky nappy changes and button up sleepsuits (before there's a wriggly baby in there and it's dark and you haven't slept in days).
We'll talk ways to hold, ways to soothe, ways to pick up and put down, we'll bust common myths and we will have plenty of time for all those questions you may have been too afraid to ask before.
