Pregnancy and postpartum support
with Dr. Saad:
Individualized support for women seeking supplemental care and preparation for birth, whether planning a hospital birth, assisted home birth, or “free birth”.
Empowering a woman’s inherent wisdom and sovereignty in birthing and parenting is my priority. I believe that pregnancy and birth can be blissful experiences, and are opportunities to make quantum shifts in our personal growth and healing.
In addition to my medical training and experience in conventional medicine, during which I attended over 200 hospital births, I have provided support at home births, birthed my four children at home, and have 20+ years of experience studying and testing alternative frameworks, strategies and techniques.
Support I can offer includes:
- Osteopathic treatment
- Conventional and integrative medical care
- Multi-dimensional preparation for birth and parenthood
- Healing past trauma through a variety of modalities
- Personalized exercise programs, including for the pelvic floor
- Education / personalized advice around all the pregnancy, postpartum and parenting topics (incl. birth choices, nutrition, sexuality, relationships, medical recommendations / interventions, breastfeeding, circumcision).
- I am not currently providing any direct support during labor and birth.
- Postpartum and newborn home visits within 45 minute radius.
