Ep 248: How To Get Through Those First Six Weeks Postpartum


Listen Later

This episode is all about helping you during those first six weeks postpartum! The reality is that once you get discharged from the hospital, your doctor likely won't see you for six weeks. Experts recommend some degree of contact within the first three weeks postpartum. However, the reality is that it isn’t common. So in this episode, you're going to get some great information to help you during that time.

This episode is taken from The Birth Preparation Course, my online childbirth education class that gets you calm, confident, and empowered to have the beautiful birth you deserve. Of course this podcast is fantastic. It’s great for helping you get information and I put my heart and soul into it, but inside of The Birth Preparation Course you get important visual information and a structured format to help you really be READY for birth. Even if you don't choose my Birth Preparation Course for childbirth education, please choose something. It is so, so important and you should not skip it.

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:
  • What physical transformations happen after birth
  • How your body will be changed forever (and why that’s not a bad thing)
  • How long it can take for your hair and weight to go back to normal
  • Which items you need for baby to get started - it’s not as much as you think!
  • What your baby needs more than anything else
  • Why you don’t need to be too picky about where your baby sleeps
  • Why you shouldn’t buy a lot of things in advance
  • What my top 10 tips are to help with the first six weeks
