You’re not alone. But what if we told you that putting Mom first could be the key to unlocking your empowerment? Introducing Mom.ME, the trailblazing organization reshaping the narrative of maternal care with a revolutionary approach.
Their mantra? Mom 1st! This isn’t just a catchy phrase – it’s a movement, a commitment to Teach, Advocate, Listen, and Know, encapsulated in their powerful motto. Mom.ME. understands the struggles mothers face, which is why they’re dedicated to providing more than just support groups – they offer a sanctuary.
Picture a space where moms come together, not just to share experiences, but to build genuine bonds, creating an unbreakable village of solidarity and understanding.
“I was pregnant when I came across Mom.ME.’s maternal education class. I chose to have a natural birth experience with my midwife, so I figured I needed to learn all that I could about the birthing process since this was my first child.
I didn’t really have a physical support system since I’m not from Mississippi and my own mother didn’t support or understand my decision to have a natural birth,” Lea Neely said.
“The founder, Mrs. Lauren actually participated in the class opening up and sharing about her own personal struggles with motherhood. I had been battling stress and depression and at that moment I knew I had found my place!
I was at home with a group of women who understood and got me without feeling like I was being judged for any choices I made. My baby girl will soon be two years old and we’re still a part of the village!”
In a world where maternal mental health often goes unnoticed, Mom.ME. shines as a beacon of hope. From Baby Blues to Postpartum Depression and Anxiety, they address it all, providing vital resources and a compassionate ear for mothers in need.
Here’s the real beauty of it all: as a mom, you’re never alone. Mom.ME. believes in learning from each other’s mistakes to improve the overall functionality of the family structure. Imperfection is embraced, and growth is celebrated.
