012: The Fourth Trimester

This week we are diving into the often forgotten about fourth trimester.

So much planning and preparation go into baby and delivery but not enough is talked about when it comes to what to do after the baby is born. It's a challenging, yet beautiful time with your newborn and there is so much to learn so quickly.

Jesse and I share as much as we could recollect from our fourth trimester experience with Sarelle.

Highlights from this episode:

Sarelle's 38-week milestones
The first 12 weeks after Sarelle was born (the 4th trimester)
Oral vitamin K
Encapsulating Marni's placenta
A support team after birth is essential
Making baths part of your self-care healing routine
Allowing time for your body to rest and heal
Feeding Sarelle every 2 hours (even through the night)
The challenges of breastfeeding, pumping, & top-ups
We opted for goat milk formula
Natural options to help increase your milk supply
Hiring a lactation consultant to guide our breastfeeding journey
Chiropractic care during pregnancy & postpartum (for baby and mom)
How to relieve a blocked milk duct
Healing after a vaginal delivery
Co-sleeping, bassinets & sleep sacks
Establishing a good nighttime routine
Transitioning Sarelle from co-sleeping to her crib
Dream feeding & pumping at night
Marni & Sarelle's supplement protocols
Newborn activities, books, & toys
