The Fourth Trimester Companion How to Take Care of Your Body, Mind, and Family as You Welcome Your New Baby

With the core belief that a well-cared-for baby is a baby whose mother is taking care of herself, 'The Fourth Trimester Companion' supports a new mother's transition to motherhood. The book addresses the common oversight of maternal care after birth, as most pre-baby focus is on pregnancy, childbirth, and infant care. Healthcare professionals agree that the mother's transition deserves equal attention, as self-care during the first three months of a new baby's life—the fourth trimester—provides crucial benefits for the mother, baby, partner, and family. Author and doula Cynthia Gabriel provides the necessary information, guidance, and encouragement for new mothers to care for their body, mind, and spirit during these vital months, ensuring they feel their best and their baby has the greatest chance to thrive.
