About Mamas Facing Forward

The internet is teeming with advice for moms and moms-to-be, but when it comes to the unique challenges faced by moms living with chronic illnesses, the resources seem to be few and far between. Mamas Facing Forward is dedicated to addressing this very important unmet need.

While not meant to replace the advice and guidance of doctors on these topics, Mamas Facing Forward endeavors to be a “one stop shop” for moms and moms-to-be who are living with chronic illnesses and have questions or concerns about pregnancy and motherhood. We want to make existing resources easier to find and work towards creating additional resources where they are needed. We want moms with chronic illnesses to know they aren’t alone and that help is available.

Our Mission

To help moms and moms-to-be living with chronic illnesses embrace the unique challenges we face and learn to find strength from them. To provide resources, support, and encouragement to keep facing forward – for our children and for ourselves.
