🤍 June is Infertility Awareness Month 🤍

At PLIDA, we recognize the silent struggles so many families face on their journey to parenthood. Infertility is more than a medical condition—it’s an emotional and often isolating experience.

As we begin Mother's Day weekend, we are reminded that not all mothers have living children. We hold space for the mothers who grieve, and to the moms who carry love and loss together. You are seen, you are loved, and you are not alone.

Today is NICU Remembrance Day. Many of us have extensive NICU experience with families that we've supported through their darkest days.

“Rest and self-care are so important. When you take time to replenish your spirit, it allows you to serve from the overflow. You cannot serve from an empty vessel.”

May 1 - 7 is #WorldMaternalMentalHealthAwarenessWeek. Nearly 1 in 5 women experience a perinatal mood & anxiety disorder. About 1 in 10 dads develop depression during this time.

How can we bring attention to mental health resources for moms, dads, & families?

May 6th - 12th is #NationalNursesWeek.
