Postpartum Recovery and the Fourth Trimester with Judy Simon, MS, RDN (ep – 64)
The journey doesn't end at birth, in many ways, it's just beginning. In this follow-up episode, Dr. Ginger Hultin is joined again by Judy Simon, MS, RDN, to explore the critical yet often overlooked "fourth trimester." Together, they unpack what real postpartum recovery looks like, from nutritional strategies that support healing and hormone balance to navigating lactation, mental health, and body image. Whether you're a new parent, planning ahead, or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers compassionate, evidence-based insights for thriving after birth, not just surviving.
