As a new mom, you are sure to have questions. That is why Emerson Hospital offers an array of support groups and classes.
New Mothers Group
Emerson hosts a special New Mothers Group in conjunction with First Connections, a family support organization that provides comprehensive services to families with infants and young children. This group is a place for you to come with questions and concerns, or just to meet and share experiences with other new mothers and their babies who are also dealing with the challenges of these early months.
Any mom with a pre-crawling baby is welcome to attend this weekly support group which offers an open-discussion format. No registration is required, and the group is facilitated by a certified lactation counselor or consultant.
The group currently meets Wednesdays from 1 to 2:30 p.m. online via Zoom. For more information, please call
978-429-8284, Email Mary at mbeilman@jri.org or visit the
First Connections website.
Mother to Mother: A Virtual Postpartum Support Group for Moms
