Learn what to expect after birth—how to care for yourself, your baby, and your relationship in the early days and weeks.
About this Event

Learn what to expect in the first days and weeks after birth — and how to nurture healing, connection, and confidence as a new family.

The first 40 days after birth are a vital time of physical recovery, emotional adjustment, and bonding. Yet this phase is often overlooked in birth preparation. In this evidence-based class, we’ll explore what truly happens in the body and home after baby arrives, and how to prepare with intention.

You’ll learn:
🕊 Caring for yourself – postpartum bleeding (lochia), hormones, swelling, nutrition, hydration, and simple comfort measures
🍼 Caring for your baby – soothing, safe sleep, feeding basics, and building confidence in newborn care
💛 Caring for your relationship – communication, teamwork, and sharing responsibilities in early parenthood
🌸 Creating a support plan – how to organize rest, meals, visitors, and emotional care during the fourth trimester

We’ll also touch on the 5-5-5 rule for postpartum rest, gentle movement and recovery tips, and practical tools to make the early weeks smoother — like peri care, comfortable clothing, and nourishing foods.

You’ll walk away with:
Custom plans and tools to help your family feel prepared, supported, and confident as you welcome your baby home.

This class blends modern, evidence-based education with the timeless wisdom of traditional postpartum care — recognizing the importance of slowing down, receiving help, and caring for the whole family unit.

Ideal for: Expecting parents, partners, and anyone preparing to welcome a newborn.
Led by: Annie Guevara, Postpartum Doula & Lactation Counselor, Founder of Doulacta
Duration: 2 hours
