Thank you to those special, generous, supportive, compassionate people in my life who quietly gave to Love Bug Bundles in March and April. Your contributions are deeply appreciated.
In April, I attended a Community Doula Program baby shower at the Spring Branch Family Development Center. Nine expectant moms received bundles filled with a blanket, a newborn outfit, a toy, a wash cloth, and a breastfeeding amenity. At the baby shower, I gave a lesson on the 5 S's and tips for successful breastfeeding. Not only did the mothers feel valued, but they also felt empowered.
Our next baby showers are planned for May 14 and July 1.
