  1. Support from family members, especially the husband and maternal mother
  2. Peer support (ie, in person, by telephone, or online ) with someone who has had experience with the mother’s situation, (i.e., postpartum depression)
  3. Networking with other mothers
  4. Exercise and being outdoors
  5. Help with household chores and parenting duties
  6. Parenting education focusing on parenting efficacy and self-confidence
  7. Rest

While it takes many minds and hands to make major improvements in the well-being of moms, MomCare Network focuses upon providing education, peer support and camaraderie. MomCare Network is also creating an online central data base of resources for moms.
