How To Handle Visitors During The First Six Weeks With A New Baby
Episode description
Esther and Sarah return to the subject of visitors. A discussion of why visitors in the first two to six weeks aren't always the right thing for new parents from a physical, emotional-social and spiritual perspective, as well as why our culture doesn't foster appropriate support.
This episode of the Fourth Trimester Podcast is a playbook for handling visitors, including:
setting boundaries for yourself
communicating how you need visitation to work to your loved ones
the difference between visitors who help vs visitors who don't know how to positively contribute
how to set up an appropriate 'meet the baby' event
why your birth story is a private experience you may or may not choose to share
