Tell us.
We want to hear alllll about your pre-conception, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and toddler experiences, but of course, just share as much (or little) as feels supportive to you! Your writing doesn’t have to be perfect or polished! It really can just be a raw diary entry.
Psst… Hot tip: If typing is impossible, you can draft your entry using the dictation feature in your email (the microphone icon)!
Optional Writing Prompts:
What’s something you are going through/went through that you wish/ed someone had told you about?
What’s something you can’t believe you had never even heard of before you went through it?
What’s an experience you’re struggling with today?
What parts of your experience are/were easeful, enjoyable, pleasurable?
What’s surprised you?
What’s an experience you’re still processing?
Or, try ‘free writing” whatever is in your head/on your heart right now.
Sharing Guidelines:
Please use “I Statements” when sharing your experience. Write about your experience only. Please don’t tell others what to do, offer advice, or make generalizations.
Please don’t share the names of any care providers and health facilities.
If you decide to comment or reach out to someone who has shared their contact info, please be kind.
It doesn’t have to be “good”! We just ask that it be honest.
JFYI, we reserve the right to omit entries from publication if they do not follow our guidelines.
