Do you have a 4th-trimester plan?
The 4th trimester describes the first three months a baby spends on the outside of its parent’s body… Birth through the first 3 months.
While this is an incredibly exciting time, it certainly comes with its own challenges. As we all know… new babies need things around the clock!
The 4th trimester involves adapting to the ever-changing needs of your newborn while dealing with sleep deprivation, and the emotional and physical recovery from birth. It requires you to give all of yourself day and night while you are in the midst of exploring and learning everything you can to get it right for your baby.
A newborn can undoubtedly bring about joyous times and memories, yet it can also bring challenges and changes. For example, the emotional toll of sleep deprivation. Having professional support during those late-night hours with your newborn are an opportunity to not only get much needed rest for you to feel your best self for your baby the next day, but also connect and bond with your partner amidst the chaos of establishing new routines.
My expertise in newborn care and understanding of the emotional, psychological, and physical demands of parenthood can provide much-needed relief to all members of the family. I offer many services to help ease the transition into parenthood like guidance on feeding options, soothing techniques, sleep cycles and schedules, burping, safe sleep, multiples, empowerment and encouragement for the parents, and more.
Have you ever dreamt about having support with practical tasks while you have time to bond with your new baby? Perhaps tedious tasks like light household tidying, bottle and milk preparation, pump/bottle sterilization, nursery organization, or waking up to a freshly emptied diaper pail sound helpful!
I can help you navigate the 4th trimester as you take the right first steps along with your baby.
Support and Help For New Partners, too!
New partners to the birthing parent can play an imperative role from day one. There are middle of the night diaper changes, grabbing extra fresh water for you while you feed baby or get much needed rest, and then burping and soothing baby back to sleep.
This is that oh so familiar time of night when you and your baby are the only ones awake while the rest of the world sleeps. During these wee hours a bond develops between you and baby. Over time this creates a divine routine that is initially challenging, yet truly rewarding for every new parent. A newborn changes your entire households routine!
Then, come morning, navigating through the bright room filled with used diapers, dirty onesies, towels, and empty bottles, you are now intimately reminded about the feelings of being in "crisis mode" for sleep just hours earlier. The exhaustion is still evident, but so is the sense of accomplishment in having made it through another night. Any parent who wakes up in the middle of the night often experience feelings of sleep-deprivation!
Does this sound familiar?
As a Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist I offer comprehensive support via a wide variety of services to parents so you always have access to invaluable support during this precious time. Allowing both parents to connect, rest, and recharge. You deserve to feel your best self during the day! I’m with you every step of the way; helping you feel informed, confident and cared for, heard and seen, empowered, and prepared for late-night parenting and newborn care.
As a parent, I know you have goals. As a doula and Newborn Care Specialist, I have the techniques that can enable you to meet and surpass those goals
Whether you anticipate needing additional support during the day, or through the night, I can arrange a flexible schedule that accommodates your unique family. I just can’t emphasize enough how important your physical and emotional recovery from birth actually is. Rest, proper nutrition, and hydration are your best friends during the 4th trimester!
I would be honored to support you as you embrace your profound journey through parenthood.
