After The Baby - Questions, Healing and Sleep
Now that your baby is here and you can hold, smell and interact with him/her physically, it can feel overwhelming.
How do I know he/she is happy?
Is there anything else they need from me?
I am not sure why she/he cries at the same time each day?
All of these are common questions I have explored and answered with parents during readings with pre-verbal babies and children. Other topics/benefits that can be investigated include:
- Gain postpartum new baby awareness tips.
- Learn how to communicate with your pre-verbal baby. Understand what he/she is telling you with his /her cries and gestures.
- Communicating with your newborn to help orient and assist your baby to integrate his/her spirit self into his/her physical body.
- Learn how to co-create the time and activities you spend with your infant/toddler thereby fostering early a cooperative parenting approach.
- Reestablish and integrate this new baby into your family.
- Gain tools to re-focus and reset your personal relationship space with your partner- learning how to carve out time for the two of you.
Healing Traumatic Birth Experiences
In 2006 the US C-Section rate was 30.2%, and labor epidural rates were between 60-80%. Couple those statistics with rising induction of labor and instrument deliveries, the birth many women and their families experience, is not the one they have envisioned and hoped for during their pregnancy. Consulting with Teresa post birth can provide the following benefits:
- Complete or heal an unexpected or traumatic birth experience for yourself and your baby allowing you to resolve and to integrate your birth experience. For Baby and Mom and Dad.
- Healing your birth experience can enable you to be more functioning and fully present, better able to enjoy and parent your newborn child. Free of anxiety and guilt.
- For your baby, clearing his/her birth experience can assist him/her to be more comfortable in his/her body; and to be more able to interact with his/her environment. A baby with a calmer nervous system cries less and sleeps more soundly.

My son was born breech with some birth injuries and was immediately admitted to the NICU with one side of his diaphragm paralyzed. He was having difficulties breathing and was agitated. Teresa was able to come and work with him a few days after he was born. She was so in tune and connected with him. After her session with him, he was much more at ease, more regulated, and his lungs were able to expand more and the diaphragm started working again. She was also able to give me some peace over his birth, and the message that he would be ok if I could be ok too. He is now a 16 month old walking, talking, happy and well adjusted little boy. Thank you Teresa-you were an integral part of Liam’s healing and mine as well.

I originally found Teresa through her Birth Intuitive web site and was eager to connect with her as I was going through a lot related to issues around pregnancy at the time. My work with Teresa expanded beyond pregnancy to post pregnancy, to general healthcare and beyond. I truly value Teresa’s intuitive insight into all issues I’ve asked her about healthcare related or not and believe strongly that having a broad team of spiritual helpers in this life is where we’re headed as people. We can often get stuck in traditional forms of conventional medicine, and our healthcare system today still lacks an ability to embrace a holistic perspective – treating the whole person: body, mind and soul. This is where knowing people like Teresa is invaluable. Teresa is very grounded, with strong credentials, a lot of experience, and offers a deeper dimension in helping people move through issues in a way that I really appreciate. I continue to work with her and am so glad I’ve had the opportunity to do so.
