#106 | The Fourth Trimester: Interview with Author Kimberly Ann Johnson

Wondering how to best manage the fourth trimester?  This week on the show we are speaking with Kimberly Ann Johnson, author of  "The Fourth Trimester" and "Call of the Wild." After experiencing her own “black hole” through her postpartum experience, she studied indigenous cultures around the world to learn how we can do a better job with the postpartum period.  From her experience, she determined there are five universal needs that all women across the globe require postpartum.  Today, she walks us through these five essential needs and helps us understand the best way to set ourselves up to get these needs met for a better, easier and truly restorative postpartum recovery. If you enjoyed this episode of the Down To Birth Show, please subscribe and share with your pregnant and postpartum friends.**********Send us Fan MailSupport the showAccess our workshops: Have a Physiologic Birth in the Hospital and Ultrasound: The Research vs RhetoricNeeded <-- for 20% off DrinkLMNT <--  for FREE 8-day supplyPrimally Pure Skincare: Use code DOWNTOBIRTH Postpartum Soothe: Use code DOWNTOBIRTHENERGYBits Superfood<--for 20% offJoin Patreon hereIG @downtobirthshowCall 802-GET-DOWN.
