Dr. Kristal Lau

Review of the postpartum period, the common terminologies used, and introduction of two new terms: postpartum recovery month and Matrescence. Explore why it's important to know about these terms in the postpartum journey.

EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:

Fresh Terms for New Experiences: I talk about "Postpartum Recovery Month" and "Matrescence" to give a better understanding of the postpartum recovery period and the incredible transformation into motherhood.

Understand Why Definitions Matter: Clear language is important in making positive changes for parents and in normalizing the much-needed rest and recovery time that moms deserve after giving birth.

QUOTES

"Everything you've been feeling about your postpartum journey has always been valid despite what everyone else has been telling you."

"Matrescence is now being put forth as another life-changing event for someone who has gone through the process of childbirth."

"This [the postpartum period] is no holiday. So, it's absolutely a viewpoint that we need to discard and one way to help doing that is to start talking about them in all these terms and have the definitions in place."
