If you’ve been following my journey, or happen to be scrolling through my blog archives, you’ll know this is the third time I’ve tried to get The Bump, Birth, Baby Network off the ground.
The first hiatus I took due to pregnancy, maternity leave, and then beginning work full-time instead of part-time.
My second hiatus came abruptly due to unexpected job loss, family obligations, and some unresolved birth trauma. I went from thinking the birth field was going to be my life, to spending 14 months thinking I would never be able to speak about it again.
Well here I am. Trying one last time (I say that now but who knows what the future holds). Starting off slowly. Holding realistic expectations.
I knew there was a reason I didn’t want to let my domain name expire 😉
The plan currently is:
- Begin offering childbirth education classes again
- Re-establish connections in the birth community
- Launch my teen parent outreach program
- Starting in fall 2019 offer doula and photography services again
Wish me luck!
