Breathing for the first time - an amazing journey!
Within seconds of birth, a baby takes in its own oxygen for the first time. For that to happen, their tiny lungs and circulatory system have to transform in a matter of seconds. So how does a tiny human manage to take what could be the most challenging breath of its life just seconds after birth?
What happens to you during the '4th Trimester' (and is it a real thing)?
Just when you thought you'd reached the finish line of pregnancy, you discover there’s one more "trimester" to journey through.
We’re talking about the "4th trimester" - that hazy period where you’re recovering from pregnancy and delivery while simultaneously learning how to be a parent as you, your partner and your baby adjust.
Marking the transition from pregnancy to postpartum, the fourth trimester is the 12-week period of time following the birth of your baby. These first weeks are a time of change, learning, and new experiences for everyone.
