After fourteen years of supporting families as a doula and experiencing motherhood herself, Kristin Revere has learned that some things you just can’t fully understand until you’ve been through them.
In this solo episode of Ask the Doulas, Kristin shares what she wishes more expecting parents knew about birth, postpartum, relationships, and those early days with a new baby. She talks about why you can prepare for birth without being able to control the outcome, why having an involved partner makes such a difference, and why accepting help is not a sign of failure.
Kristin also shares her thoughts on setting boundaries with family, navigating the overwhelming amount of advice available online, and giving yourself time to recover and adjust to life with a baby. These conversations are at the heart of her work with families and her book, Supported: Your Guide to Birth and Baby, co-authored with Alyssa Veneklase.
You don’t have to love every minute, and you don’t have to do it all on your own. There is no prize for doing postpartum alone, and your well-being matters just as much as your baby’s.
