Fourth Trimester

“After a baby is born, there is a sacred window of time. A time for complete rejuvenation of a woman’s physical, mental, and spiritual health. A time for deep, extended bonding with her newborn. The first 42 days after birth set the stage for your baby’s next 42 years.” - Ysha Oakes, founder of the sacred window school

The slow, healing, connected space that Meredith created for her and her newly born daughter was transformative to witness. It was a deep honor to spend a few days in Pennsylvania documenting their fourth trimester and soaking in all of the newborn love that was in the air.
