DONA Postpartum Doula Training
The Seventh Mom Project, Inc. was happy to host Marcia Thuermer of Baby Blue and Pink for a DONA Postpartum Doula Training on November 4-6th.
Six women were trained to begin their process of becoming a Postpartum Doula. Elizabeth was one of them and can not say enough great things about working with Marcia to bring this training to Tampa.
"It was an exciting, emotional weekend. I feel grateful to cross paths with the women in the training, and hope our paths align again soon." --Elizabeth Good

Storms of Motherhood: Maternal Mental Health for the Perinatal Professional
On January 30th, fourteen passionate women joined Rebecca and I for the premier Storms of Motherhood Training. We were graciously hosted by Guiding Star Tampa/Life Choice's Women;s Care at their beautiful facility in Lutz, Fl. The training included the manifestations of Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders, the etiology, intensifying factors, how to appropriately screen clients and how to incorporate lessons on PMADs in prenatal and postpartum interactions with clients. The training also included a viewing of The Dark Side of the Full Moon that led to crucial lunch time conversations.
We danced, sang and cried. It was a wonderful experience for me to see the caring hearts of the women learning how to do better by mothers.
Rebecca and I learned a lot about how better to present this information to professionals in the field as well as moms and advocates. While we look forward to future classes, we deeply want to thank the participants for being our first class of trainees.
