Before the 1930’s women typically gave birth at home surrounded by relatives, female friends, and midwives. These attendants were responsible not only for supporting the mother emotionally through the pain of labor, but also for preparing necessary tools and supplies.

Black fathers are important because they play a critical role in the healthy development of their children, providing essential support, guidance, and a positive male role model, which can significantly impact a child’s self-esteem, academic achievement, and overall well-being.

Breastfeeding while Black is a powerful act of nurturing that transcends generations, despite the barriers and challenges faced by Black mothers. Historical and systemic factors have shaped breastfeeding rates and access to support.

Until the late 19th century, the majority of births were attended by midwives, many of whom were Black. Most midwives, including enslaved women, drew upon traditional healing knowledge and practices passed down throughgenerations.#BlackHistory #HealthyStartPGH
