About this listen

Uncover the joy of parenting with actionable insights, even if you're overwhelmed and sleep-deprived!

Are you finding new parenthood to be as challenging as it is rewarding, and need guidance to navigate the intricate world of infant care?

Have you found other parenting resources to be vague and lacking the depth needed to prepare you for your infant's varied needs?

If yes, you're not alone.

Here's a reassuring peek at what you'll discover inside The Fourth Trimester: How to Thrive, Bond, and Navigate Life with Your Newborn:

  • A month-by-month milestone tracker: Celebrate achievements and stay informed about your baby's development. Proven sleep strategies that help your baby (and you!) get precious rest even amidst unpredictable schedules.
  • Breastfeeding and bottle-fed tips to encourage bonding and ensure proper nutrition—without unnecessary stress! NICU and preemie-specific guidance that respects the unique needs of your little warrior.
  • Detailed insights on common health concerns, from diaper rash to pediatrician visits.
  • Understand the role of emotional development and how it impacts growth and attachment. Early communication techniques, such as baby sign language, to promote bonding from day one.
  • Customized daily routines tailored for flexibility, designed to adapt to your family's lifestyle. Tools for stress management to maintain your calmness and composure.
  • Advice on maintaining personal well-being: Balance self-care with new responsibilities. Expert advice from pediatricians and psychologists grounded in trustworthy research.
