The Fourth Trimester

What is the fourth trimester, how does it impact new parents and more importantly what can be done to make that immediate postpartum journey less isolating? Rarely discussed, but every new mother goes through it. In this episode Dr Punam and Dr Steph share both their personal experiences as well as what the medical guidance is. They discuss everything from baby blues, the crying baby, postpartum healing to mum comparisons and dealing with everyone else’s opinions! They leave you with tips on how to manage the transition as well as how to be kinder to yourself.
