YOU DID IT. After 9 (long) months of pregnancy, labor, and delivery, you’ve done the hard (and amazing!!!) work to finally meet your baby! Now begins the new journey of the 4th trimester of recovery and healing. It seems there are endless resources to help prepare you and your partner for pregnancy and life with a newborn, however, when it comes to postpartum that’s not always the case.
My second pregnancy and recovery have been very different from the first, including my feelings towards healing and my body. “Bouncing back” is no longer my focus. Health, recovery, and bonding with our new family of FOUR are my priorities. There are many transformations that you’ll experience during postpartum and while it’s hard and frustrating at times be patient and kind to yourself. It’s truly unbelievable what our bodies are capable of.
SO…how to prepare for postpartum. I’ve made a list of my recovery must-haves, including those tips only your trusted mom communities would know. It’s a wild and unique journey, thankfully we have each other!
This is where the journey to Nemah began. We wanted to create this safe space for all mamas to come talk about these topics of motherhood and family life.
