Stonewall Kitchen Take Home Breakfast
We'll send you home with a delicious breakfast bag from Stonewall Kitchen. It's our way of welcoming you home, so you can relax and celebrate your new arrival in style. We understand the challenges that lie ahead when bringing home a newborn baby, so we want to make your first morning at home that much easier.
Car Seat Safety
New Hampshire's Child Passenger Restraint Requirement mandates that all children under the age of 12 wear a child passenger restraint. Infant car seat safety is something we take very seriously. We encourage you to know how to use a car seat before your baby is born. Make sure your car seat works properly and how to adjust it correctly. Your local police department may be able to assist you with vehicle safety tips.
Baby Photos
Our hospital photo service is available to take your baby's first photo prior to discharge. You will be given photo package information. There is no payment for the pictures at the hospital; your payment can be sent in by mail. You'll receive your photos at home shortly after you are discharged.
Post-Partum Depression
Our access to Behavioral Health Services at Portsmouth Regional Hospital means that help is immediately available if post-partum depression becomes an issue.
Breast Feeding Support Group
Our Breast Feeding Support Group meets every Wednesday from 10:00 am to 12 noon in the Maternity Family Room at Portsmouth Regional Hospital.
You can stop by for a brief period, or stay for the whole time if you want. You can enjoy the benefits of meeting with a Certified Lactation Consultant who can assist you with your breast feeding needs. Or you can just stop by and relax while meeting other breast feeding women and their babies.
After you and your baby leave the Hospital, we’re here for you as an ongoing resource for all your breast feeding questions and concerns. Please call us anytime. We are always available for follow-up and encouragement!
