The Fourth Trimester A Postpartum Guide to Healing Your Body, Balancing Your Emotions, and Restoring Your Vitality A holistic guide to support women through postpartum healing. The Postpartum Revolution If you have a baby, you will experience the postpartum period. It is a stage of life—a wonderfully and mystifyingly transformative period in a new mother’s life that doesn’t have to lead to depression. While the landscape may seem grim, the good news is that cultures all over the world have a roadmap for supporting women through this transition, and it’s pretty simple. A Postpartum Sanctuary Plan Just as your birth plan allows you to think through and communicate your ideal birth, a postpartum sanctuary plan is an excellent way to anticipate and plan for the support you will need to have the smoothest sacred window possible. Rebuilding Your Body The recovery period is different for every woman and can be influenced by factors as concrete as how long your gestation was, how long your labor was, what happened during the birth, how many pregnancies you have experienced (including miscarriages and abortions), how much sleep you are getting, and factors as seemingly unrelated as how nurtured you feel, how supportive your partner is if you have one, and when you have to go back to work. Owning Your Birth Experience Most of us think of birth as a rite of passage, and it is, but what we don’t realize is that birth is just one of many rites of passage that make up the process of becoming a mother. And to understand our postpartum experience, we also have to understand our birthing experience. For many of us, that means reclaiming our place as the protagonist in our own narrative.
