Hello Fourth Trimester

Jennie June Kishbaugh RN BSN LCCE CBC

This podcast serves as a space to give first-time moms a glimpse into the fourth trimester. Our understanding of postpartum is often based on either perfectly curated newborn photo sessions posted on social media, or tragic headlines about mothers overcome by postpartum depression. What about the in-between? What about the stories that aren't picture-perfect for social media, nor newsworthy? Listen into stories shared by moms like you about their own fourth trimester experience, with just the right balance of encouragement and truth.
