Asian, African and the Pacific cultures honour post-natal confinement and often new mothers have 30 days of rest and care and are looked after by their families after the miracle of birth. Unfortunately that’s not the case in many western societies especially here in Australia. Get up and get on with it is how most new mums feel. Embracing Motherhood founders Meaghan South and Anne-Maree Nomm are trying to change all of that. Their company Embracing Motherhood aims to assist new mums to feel calm, strong and healthy through tailored postnatal programmes of natural healing and personal support. The team customise in-house treatments to suit you and your needs -- postnatal massage, personal yoga instruction, personal fitness training, naturopathic consultations, nutritional Support Programme, Post Breastfeeding Weight Loss Programme. Naturopath and herbalist Tania Flack, an Emerging Motherhood consultant, has written up nourishing recipes for new mums for before and after birth and an in-home consultation determines their nutritional deficits and needs. www.embracingmotherhood.com
