Today, each time you turn on the television, listen to the radio, or talk with friends, COVID-19 is all anyone seems to talk about, making it extremely difficult to escape the constant feeling of uncertainty. Each day we anxiously anticipate the new number of cases and deaths among vulnerable populations around the world, posing the big question, “Are expecting mothers at a higher risk?”

Whether you are having your first or second child, the journey of experiencing pregnancy is full of excitement and happiness, but it can also be extremely overwhelming. Pregnancy is already accompanied by an array of different emotions throughout the trimesters and for mothers expecting amidst a global outbreak, feelings such as nervousness and fear can become heightened and significantly interfere with what is supposed to be a joyous milestone. Here at High Country Doulas we are diligently working to support you and your baby’s needs during this stressful time.

A Baby Registry Worth Sharing

While most baby registries are made of of the usual, onesies, diapers, and fancy butt-creams, we at high country Doula’s recommend a more direct approach to creating a registry. Instead of asking for common items that last minute shoppers will buy you anyway, or that can easily be passed down from friends, why not fill your registry with items that will pay off for you for time immemorial...
