there's nothing like being in the 4th trimester during the summer!! 3 things that make postpartum easier this time of year:
1. Longer days!!! More daylight. No sun setting at 4pm making sunset scaries easier to manage. More opportunity to get out for a stroller walk or a lay a blanket out for a picnic.
2. There's truly nothing better than sitting out in the warm weather in your backyard under an umbrella doing skin to skin with your newborn baby.
3. People are, in general, happier and more free to help over the summer. To-do lists are shorter and schedules tend to be more flexible!
What else made a summer postpartum experience feel easier for you?
