How long can a mother participate in mother-to-mother support?
There is no set time limit for a mother’s participation, though a mother may move on to different types of involvement as time passes. For example, women may make contact and/or attend meetings during pregnancy or while breastfeeding and may continue with subsequent children. A mother may choose to stay on and become one of the “experienced” mothers, or she may undergo training and become a telephone counselor, peer counselor, or facilitator for a mother support group in her community. Older mothers/grandmothers may continue to participate in administrative, fund-raising, or other supportive activities.
