The weeks after a baby arrives can feel like a fog of feeding, rocking, and counting hours between naps that never last long enough. This is the companion for those early months: how to read a newborn's cues, what recovery actually requires of a tired body, gentle ways to steady mood and sleep, and simple rhythms that bring order without pressure. Warm, honest, and paced for two people learning each other slowly.
