The Matrescence Series

The Matrescence Series A six-week guide to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum Becoming a mother changes you — body, identity, nervous system, all of it. That transformation has a name: matrescence. This six-week series walks you through it with real information and reassurance, covering diet, herbalism, and exercise in pregnancy, preparing for birth, the stages of birth and mindset, comforting measures for labor, the fourth trimester, and integration as you settle into motherhood. Led by Trinity Welch, MPH, BS Alternative Medicine — mother of three and doula. Trinity blends a public health background with hands-on birth work, so you’re getting both the research and the lived, in-the-room experience of supporting other mothers through this exact transition.
