Around the world, the postpartum period is considered to be a sacred and special time during which a mother is born, as well as her baby.
Many cultures have special practices and customs that serve to recognize and honor this special time, and women aren’t expected to “bounce back” or jump right back into their usual lives.
In the US though, we have a long way to go, which is why I’m sopassionate about sharing the practical, quick tips that I personally found to be the most helpful or surprising, to help you feel more prepared for postpartum.
My hope is that these tips will help you set realistic, healthy expectations for what your postpartum recovery and transition period should look like (otherwise known as the 4th trimester!) so you can prepare in advance to take good care of both your baby, andyourself.
