A well-cared-for baby is a baby whose mother is taking care of
herself. With this truth at its core, The Fourth Trimester
Companion supports your transition to motherhood. You have probably
already read multiple books on pregnancy, childbirth, and infant
care as you prepare to become a mother, but have you considered how
you are going to care for yourself after your baby is born? With so
much focus on the birthing process and the new baby, your own birth
as a mother is often overlooked. Doctors, nurses, midwives, and
others involved in providing baby care agree that your own
transition deserves equal attention, because taking good care of
yourself in the first three months of your new baby's life-the
fourth trimester-brings crucial benefits for you, for your baby,
and for your partner and family. With this important book, you (as
well as your partner and other caregivers, whether lay or
professional) now have the resources to have an ideal fourth
trimester experience. Cynthia Gabriel, a doula and the author of
the best-selling book Natural Hospital Birth, delivers all the
information, guidance, and encouragement you need as a new mother
to take care of your body, mind, and spirit during the vital months
of the fourth trimester-so that you feel your best and so your baby
has the best possible chance to thrive. Find tips, strategies, and
advice for: Coping with the physical and emotional challenges in
the first days and weeks post-partum Sleep challenges and solutions
for both you and baby Self-care, infant care, and infant feeding,
including breastfeeding and going back to work Navigating your
changing relationships with your immediate family, partner,
children, parents, in-laws, and pets Finding your new, postpartum
sex life Emotional well-being, including postpartum depression and
PTSD Appreciate the wondrous moments as a new mother and feel less
alone with the challenging ones with The Fourth Trimester
Companion.
