Day 2 – Building the gentlest parent support app🌿 Revisiting this “We got us” call. The more we share honest feedback about prenatal, birth and postpartum experiences, the better our care becomes. That’s the spirit behind New Roots too—building a space where parents can access gentle guidance and learn from each other’s stories. #NewParents #BuildinPublic #BuildinginPublic
We got US! 🤎✊🏾 Come get the support you deserve on Irth! Leave a review in the Irth app about your prenatal, birth, or postpartum experience and let’s hold the system accountable together. 👑 #IrthApp #WeGotUs #BirthWithoutBias #IrthCommunity #BirthWithIrth

Oh no! Im so sorry to hear you experienced that. Plz have you & your wife leave a review on the @IrthApp. Every voice matters. When it asks for a code use, 7VZ28BO2 So much still needs to change & we need more influencers/ celebrities using their platform 🙏🏽.

PSA to those pregnant 🗣 *For educational purposes only* This can be helpful in lowering the risk for gestational diabetes. Consult with a Midwife (especially if you're high risk). Hire a Doula even if it's your 5th birth. Leave a review on the @IrthApp about your prenatal care.
Taking a short #walk after a meal boosts insulin sensitivity & lower blood #sugar. It also reduces the rise in blood #triglycerides that occurs after a meal. Even 10 will do the trick! teapawt.net/i/status/1312047224709…

💙 A Message from Kay Matthews, Executive Director of The Shades of Blue Project 💙 To all my beautiful Black girls, young and grown, my beloved Sistars near and far: Today, we celebrate Black Girl Day Off—a day just for us. A day to breathe, to rest, and to remember that you deserve joy. You deserve peace. You deserve to put yourself first, even if it’s just for a moment. This day is about more than simply taking time off; it’s about reclaiming our joy, our wellness, and our power. To all the little Black girls watching and learning, and to my strong, unstoppable sisters who continue to inspire—remember that rest is your right. You are worthy of every bit of happiness and self-care you can give yourself today. So, go ahead, choose joy. Embrace the beauty of pausing and filling your cup. Let’s celebrate each other and remind ourselves that our mental health matters just as much as our dreams. 💙💙💙 With all my love and support, Kay Matthews 💙 #BlackGirlDayOff #TheShadesOfBlueProject #RESTIsMandatoryNOTOptional #TheConversationContinues #BlackMamasDoMatter #DoItForTheCulture #WeChooseJ

TW: The impact of abortion bans in GA and beyond is deadly. We need all hands on deck to demand accountability for the deaths of Amber Nicole Thurman and Candi Miller & to regain access to lifesaving care. Join @SisterSong_WOC on Sep 28th: ow.ly/aqkl50TuiLI

If you're a Black pregnant woman HIRE A BLACK DOULA (preferably one who's spiritual). In the U.S. Black women are dying 4x more than Whites from pregnancy, birth or postpartum complications. In NYC, it's at least 9x more. Download the @IrthApp to see reviews of Drs in your state.
What’s something LIFE-SAVING from your specialty that everyone should know?
