My top five resources for families with new babies (mostly in San Francisco):
- Yeshi’s New Mother’s Circle — facilitated peer support. You and your baby will make friends for life. (And there’s more at Natural Resources.)
- The Milk Years — Tracy Massillon, IBCLC is a breastfeeding expert and gives consultations, classes, and web resources.
- Mothering the New Mother by Sally Placksin — a book of women’s voices on the postpartum experience: “You don’t have to be alone.”
- Yoga with Jane Austin — Jane’s postpartum yoga classes help with emotional and physical recovery, once you reach 6 weeks or so.
- Mama’s Resource Network — go-to site for SF practitioners for all your mother, baby, and family needs: acupuncture, doulas, mental health, and more.
