Welcome to The Newborn Trenches—that foggy, love-soaked, and utterly exhausting place new parents find themselves in during the fourth trimester.
In this first episode of a three part series, we open up about the real postpartum experience—the part that rarely makes it into baby books. From relentless sleep deprivation to feeding frustrations and the emotional toll of recovery, we’re talking about it all. Honestly. Tenderly. Without filters.
You’ll hear:
- What the “fourth trimester” really means—and why it matters
- How sleep deprivation can shake your core (and how to cope)
- The highs, lows, and in-betweens of feeding—no matter your path
- Navigating your own healing while showing up for someone tiny and new
If you’re in it, have been through it, or are preparing for it—this episode is your reminder that you're not broken, you're just in the trenches. And one day, you'll climb out stronger than you ever imagined.
💛 This one’s for the tired hearts, the teary eyes, and the hands that keep holding on.
