Mom-ME Time

Listen up, moms.

You take care of everyone else. It’s time to take care of yourself. Join us for Mom-ME Time – a series of free Zoom talks with our medical experts and other moms like you! Becoming a mom changes your life in so many ways. Your body, your relationships, your time... the list goes on. Maybe you didn’t expect some of these changes. Maybe you need help but don’t know where to turn, or maybe you think some of the changes are just a “normal” part of life now. You’re not alone! Prevea is here to help with a series of free virtual talks where we’ll focus on you and your needs after having a baby. During Mom-ME Time, Prevea’s medical experts will guide you through this new adventure of being a mom. Tune in for one or all of these interactive presentations via Zoom.
