You’ve just spent nine months growing a baby, but the journey doesn’t end the moment you give birth. When the baby is out, you might be tempted to think that everything - your body, your emotions, your life - will go back to normal. But for both new mothers and their babies, there’s an adjustment period popularly known as the Fourth Trimester. Kim and Leila unpack what’s going on, and how it can leave you feeling.

In this episode:

  • How the fourth trimester sits alongside the three other trimesters of pregnancy
  • What baby is experiencing
  • What emotional changes you can expect and why
  • How your experience might differ if you’re breastfeeding
  • What physical changes you can expect
  • Should you expect to bounce back during the fourth trimester, or even afterwards?
