About the Event
Did you know that the bacteria your baby is exposed to at birth and shortly after can have lifelong impacts on their health?
In this talk with two Microbirth Approved Educators, we'll discover how to optimize your baby's gut microbiome to help influence both their short-term and long-term health. We'll look at optimizing your own microbiome to start, then move on to the 6 "seeding and feeding" events that optimize the infant gut microbiome. We'll finish up with practical ways to get to a healthy infant microbiome when interventions like antibiotics and cesareans are needed during birth.
Held indoors.
Who should come? Pregnant people and partners, people with babies, support people, or birth workers who are curious about the topic
