Most of a new mother’s emotional havok is as a result of what happens in the dark, not the light. You have too many things to do, one big soul that needs your care, and too little time to remember who you were before you began pushing. And well-meaning people inquire about the health of the baby — for good reason — but at the expense of looking into how the mother is doing. This is not a complaint or cry for help, simply an observation: Mothers want help, they don’t want to ask for it, and even if they did they don’t know who to ask. That’s where Kimberly Ann Johnson, author of “The Fourth Trimester,” comes in. She’s dedicated to helping new mothers get what they need after birth, providing the care necessary for women, partners, and families to pass through the post-partum window whole, healthy, and happy.
