"From Overwhelmed to Empowered: Making Confident Decisions in Pregnancy and Postpartum"
Written by Beth Connors, MSN, CNM, APNP, Owner of Family Focused Midwifery

Pregnancy and the postpartum journey come with countless decisions and no shortage of opinions. It can feel overwhelming trying to determine what's best for you and your growing family.

In this thoughtful blog, certified nurse-midwife Beth Connors shares how to confidently navigate the information overload, trust your instincts, ask the right questions, and make informed decisions that align with your values. Empowerment doesn't come from having all the answers, but it comes from having the knowledge and support to make the choices that are right for you.

Whether you're expecting, newly postpartum, or supporting a loved one through this season, this is a must-read.

At 9in|9out Parent + Baby Expo, we're committed to connecting families with trusted experts, evidence-based education, and supportive resources to help you thrive through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.

💛 Community is at the heart of everything we do.

One of the cornerstones of the 9in|9out Parent + Baby Expo is giving back to the communities we serve. That's why, in every city we visit, we partner with a local nonprofit that is making a meaningful difference for new and growing families, and we donate a portion of every ticket sold to support their mission.

We're incredibly proud to announce MomsBloom, Inc. as our 2026 Grand Rapids Non-Profit Partner! 🌸

MomsBloom is a nonprofit dedicated to supporting families during the postpartum period. They connect parents with trained volunteers and specialists who provide emotional support, help with light household tasks, and offer a steady, compassionate presence during those early weeks with a new baby. Their work is rooted in parental mental wellness, community care, and health equity, offering practical, judgment-free support that meets each family exactly where they are. ❤️

MomsBloom will be launching a new program in 2026 which will over text/email/call support to families - learning about their needs for their family and helping them connect with the right community programs and supports.
