Today I’ll be talking about the fourth trimester, the first 3 months after birth where you and your baby make the transition from life on the inside with baby to life on the outside with baby. For many Americans life pretty much goes back to pre-pregnancy state, or at least that seems to be the typical goal, but for many women around the world the transition is much more sacred and filled with grace. We’ll learn what some other cultures do and why as well as some practical tips that embrace this sacred approach.
