Ask the Expert | The 4th Trimester
Explanations and Tips for the Months After Birth
This week is European Babywearing Week, and the theme is “4th trimester and beyond”. But what’s behind the term "4th trimester"? Isn’t a pregnancy actually 9 months long, which is 3 trimesters (1 trimester = 3 months)? Thankfully, our midwife and babywearing expert Katrin has plenty of information to share all about this time. In today's expert tip, she describes everything parents need to know about the development of their baby during pregnancy and especially in the period immediately after birth. And she reveals what parents can do for their offspring in this 4th trimester.

Babywearing at Home
Babywearing isn’t just for long walks across muddy fields or navigating public transport when you can’t face lugging a buggy around (although those are both great reasons to babywear!), there’s a hundred reasons why babywearing at home is the best thing, and we thought we’d share a few…
Get things done!
It sounds pretty simple and it is. Even the most independent baby can be clingy sometimes but babywearing lets you get on with your life hands-free whether that’s giving some love and attention to another child, finally getting that cup of tea made and… wait for it… drunk whilst still hot, or just making your way through that ever-growing pile of washing. And pro tip: as your baby gets older try using the back carry or hip carry position if your carrier supports it to give you even more range of movement and freedom.

Add a touch of spring style to your wardrobe with the Ergobaby Adapt in Midnight Blue
Exciting news! Our Adapt carrier is now available in Midnight Blue and while it’s still a little chilly outside, spring is in the air and we’ve put together an outfit from the high street to help you show off your new carrier in style.
Nothing says spring better than florals and we are completely obsessed with this long sleeve button dress from Joules, the subtle print is ideal for anyone not completely sure floral’s their thing, while the button front is handy for feeding. The long sleeves and midi length make it perfect for those days where the weather can’t make up its mind, and the best part? It has POCKETS.

“The emotional labor pains of becoming a mother are far greater than the physical pangs of birth; these are the growing surges of your heart as it pushes out selfishness and fear and makes room for sacrifice and love. It is a private and silent birth of the soul, but it is no less holy than the event of childbirth—perhaps even more sacred.” — Joy Kusek

My heart was grasping for something, anything, that could help me define what the heck was going on with everything around and within me. This woman’s words defined
