Summary

You’ve just given birth, and that’s a major deal for both your body and your mind. Now it’s time to recover, but what does that actually look like? In this episode, we cover what to expect from the first few weeks of the postpartum period and how your body heals—from lochia (we'll get into it) and hormonal changes to what sleep really means with a newborn. Along the way, you’ll hear candid stories about postpartum anxiety, feeding challenges and the highs and lows that many new parents experience while getting to know a brand new human. Birth with Babylist brings together trusted experts and parents who’ve lived it to break down what happens before, during, and after birth—without fear-mongering or shaming. Hosted by journalist, author and mom of three Jo Piazza. New episodes every Thursday. Featuring Kim Einhorn, MD.
