Welcome to my blog. I am new at this so I am not sure how exactly to format this. I am creating this in order to share experiences about motherhood and all it entails.
I am a physician and have had three homebirths.

I started a company called Nurse-well see www.nurse-well.com to help mothers with breastfeeding. I found after my first child was born that the most difficult task was breastfeeding. After speaking with many other mothers I realized that what was over looked most was the nutritional need of the mother during this time. Alot of emphisis is put on what one eats while pregnant but very little is said about the time post-partum.

If I do not drink upward of 2 litres of water a day I will suffer the side effects. I get headaches, nausea and feel lethargic all symptoms that lead to depression and a feeling of not being able to cope. It is not easy to keep up with this fliud demand and my husband and I created the Nurse-wellTM to help. It is a resevoir holding 2 liters with tubing attached and a bite valve. So now I can drink while lying down and without the use of my hands. I don't risk spilling water all over me, the baby or the bed.
