#TeamRhino #SaveTheRhino #SaveFive

Raising Awareness to protect our #WildLife, Please take the pledge: I would like to join #TeamRhinodotorg in the fight against rhino poaching to ensure a future for people and vulnerable wildlife on our planet: I will never buy or promote any products made of rhino horn, as I know that demand drives poaching. I will be a committed advocate to support rangers and others on the frontlines of rhino conservation. I will share my passion about rhino conservation and recruit my friends and family to become involved. I will urge my government to continue championing efforts to stop rhino poaching at home and abroad. I will stand with IRF to help save rhinos from extinction. teamrhino.org

Day 2 #RealMotherHood #NoShame #StigmaFree


Despite what you may have heard, the maternal instinct is not a switch that flips once the baby comes into the world. For many moms, it's learned over time and through a collection of experiences and support from other mothers. Let new moms in your life know that this is a journey. They may not have all the answers yet, but they will find their way.#RealMotherhood #NoShame

Today ask a new mom in your life how she is really feeling. And, if they are really struggling, you can tell them it’s not uncommon (or not unusual) and help is available. Provide Postpartum Support International’s Warmline number: 1-800-944-4773.

97: When Perinatal Myths Become Beliefs


Apr 28, 2018
Maternal Mental Health Week is Here! 4/30-5/4
World Maternal Mental Health day is Wednesday 5/2
We are addressing the myths of motherhood and parenthood while digging a little deeper to see how
 those myths become the beliefs that we carry about ourselves. 
What are these myths? So glad you asked! They basically sound like perfection at it's most perfect...
* You will get pregnant easily
* You and your baby will be healthy
* You will love being pregnant and being a mother
* You will know what to do and how to do it 
* Breastfeeding will be easy
* You will instantly bond with your baby postpartum
And so on...What can you add to the list? WELL, what happens when these myths don't become reality????
We feel like failures. We blame ourselves. We think that we did something wrong. We feel like bad mothers. 
Let's tear this down and start over. Yes, some people have these really lovely experiences, but for those of
 us who don't...we are suffering by the pain of these "failures". I say, we say, that's enough. Let's call it out and
realize that you're working so hard 
and you are a good mom.
