Ep 2: What Is Postpartum, Really? Debunking the 6-Week Myth Is postpartum just six weeks? Or is it something so much more expansive—physically, emotionally, and spiritually? In this episode of Coach the Mother, Dr. Natalie Forsell breaks down what “postpartum” actually means through the lens of clinical definitions, personal experience, and real-life recovery timelines. We’ll explore how medical authorities like the Cleveland Clinic, WHO, and ACOG define it—and why those definitions are long overdue for a rewrite. Whether you’re six weeks, six months, or six years postpartum, this episode will validate what you’re feeling and help you see your healing journey through a new lens. Because postpartum isn’t a timeline—it’s a transformation. Referenced Articles: Cleveland Clinic: What is the Postpartum Period?
