Join us for a presentation on maternity in the 18th century followed by a tea with sandwiches and sweets.
Today and 300 years ago, welcoming a new child changes everything. Explore the intimate, complex world of pregnancy and infant care in colonial America at Graeme Park. This immersive, research-based program will bring to life the experiences of an 18th century midwife and maternity patient.
You’ll learn how pregnancy shaped women’s daily lives—altering their clothing, diet, hygiene, and roles within the household. Discover the medical practices and herbal remedies used by midwives, and how childbirth was viewed and managed before modern medicine.
This program offers a rare and personal glimpse into the challenges, resilience, and traditions of early American women. Perfect for history enthusiasts, educators, and anyone curious about the roots of women’s health care.
After the presentation, enjoy afternoon tea, plus an informal chat with the presenter.
