What really helps postpartum recovery?
In this episode of the Postpartum Prep Podcast, Ceridwen speaks with postpartum care provider Carla Sage about the emotional and practical preparation that can support a smoother postpartum recovery after birth.
This conversation explores:
- Postpartum rest and healing
- The emotional “inner work” of postpartum preparation
- Why asking for help can feel difficult
- The 7-7-7 postpartum recovery framework
- Postpartum support, boundaries, and family dynamics
- How modern motherhood pressures women to “bounce back”
Carla shares her own experience of having both an unsupported postpartum and a deeply supported postpartum, and how that shaped her work supporting mothers today.
If you are pregnant, preparing for postpartum, or newly postpartum, this episode offers a grounding and compassionate perspective on healing after birth and building a more supported transition into motherhood.
