A Quick Word on PostPartum Follow-Up
Technology will be an amazing resource for our work together. And we are so lucky to live in an age where there are so many ways of communicating that accommodate a family's busy schedule.
I am happy to text, FaceTime, Skype and email (and will try to learn any other new communication tool) – and think these are all wonderful ways to answer quick questions, confirm forgotten conversations (hello, postpartum brain) and check on how you and baby are doing. That said, sometimes an in-person visit is essential.
We will work together to come up with an arrangement which works best for you and your baby, to make sure you are getting the support you need.
