Theresa is a mom of three living in a charmingly spooky town in Massachusetts. She began her journey studying meteorology, once dreaming of a future on the news, but quickly found herself drawn to nutrition and healthy eating. Her interest in lactation developed during her first job as a dietitian. When she’s not helping families, she loves spending time at the ocean—but not if she has to get on an airplane!
The early postpartum period—often called the fourth trimester—is a time of major transition. While you’re getting to know your baby and settling into a new rhythm, your body is also doing significant work behind-the-scenes. You’re healing from pregnancy and birth. Your hormones are shifting quickly. If you’re breastfeeding, your body is producing milk day and night. And if your energy, appetite, and routine feel unpredictable right now, that's completely normal.
