Send us a text We reset the cultural script on early postpartum, naming the gap between glossy images and real recovery and offering practical ways to rest, plan, and get help. Joy and struggle can sit side by side, and that truth makes room for healing, teamwork, and steady confidence. • normalizing messy, exhausting early postpartum • myth of the perfect new mother and why it hurts • when birth plans change and grief shows up • physical recovery needs and sleep deprivation • feeding realities, cluster feeding, latch issues • identity shifts, doubt, and mood fluctuations • relationship communication and partner support • newborn behavior explained in simple terms • rest as a healing strategy, not a luxury • practical planning for food, water, chores, help • building a support circle and when to call professionals • baby blues and postpartum mood disorders • cocooning, slowing down, and realistic expectations “Reach out and make a human connection. People are our most valuable assets. Don’t give them up. Hold on tight to those connections and make new ones when you can.” Visit our website, here: https://birthlearning.com/ Follow us on Facebook at Birth Learning Follow us on Instagram at @birthlearning Show Credits Host: Angie Rosier Music: Michael Hicks Photographer: Toni Walker Episode Artwork: Nick Greenwood Producer: Gillian Rosier Frampton Voiceover: Ryan Parker
