Flexible, On-Demand Learning –
Designed for Moms Like You
The Fourth Trimester Course is delivered in a 7-module, pre-recorded format, allowing you to learn at your own pace, on your own schedule—because we know that life with a newborn is unpredictable.
✔️ Watch or listen anytime, anywhere—no pressure to show up live.
✔️ No need to be on camera or participate—learn in a way that feels comfortable for you.
✔️ Includes group coaching calls & support for 3 months—so you’re never navigating alone.
This course is built for real moms, with real lives—so you can get the guidance and support you need, on your terms.
Course Objectives
This course was designed for expecting and new moms who want to feel mentally prepared, supported, and confident as they transition into the postpartum period.
✔️ Understand postpartum mood & anxiety disorders (PMADs) before they happen—so you can recognize early signs and take action before feeling overwhelmed.
✔️ Fill the gap between OB visits—covering the emotional, mental, and lifestyle changes doctors often don’t have time to discuss.
✔️ Reduce the impact of postpartum stress, anxiety, and emotional shifts—by learning practical tools to protect your well-being.
✔️ Connect with a perinatal mental health specialist before birth—so you have expert guidance and support in place when you need it most.
✔️ Create a personalized postpartum care plan while you’re still feeling well—so you have a clear roadmap for handling challenges if they arise.
✔️ Normalize the emotional highs and lows of postpartum—because your mental health will be affected, and knowing how to seek help is a sign of strength, not failure.
✔️ Join a supportive community of moms—inside The Fourth Trimester Online Community, where you’ll connect with Dr. Kumi, her coaching team, and other moms navigating the same journey.
You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. This course gives you the knowledge, tools, and support system to prepare for postpartum with confidence.
Course Modules
Designed for expecting and new moms, this course provides the mental preparation, support, and confidence you need to navigate postpartum with clarity and ease.
We’ll cover the real challenges of the fourth trimester—the ones doctors don’t always have time to discuss and the topics that often go unspoken—so you feel informed, validated, and ready for what’s ahead.
Recovery
No two bodies or deliveries are the same and we need to be aware of the different ways we will respond to recovery. Your birth may not go as planned. How prepared are you to adjust to that and how much do you know about alternatives?
Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders
Identifying the symptoms of postpartum depression and anxiety and understanding they don't always begin AFTER the baby. What can you do about it?
Relationships & Sex Drive
Between the physical and emotional changes you may or may not be in a space to be sexual or to actually love your partner right now. How can you effectively communicate that?
Sleep Deprivation
This can hit us hard and is often the underlying cause of a lot of other challenges you will face. Learn to combat this and speak up when you recognize you are struggling to sleep.
Newborn challenges
I never heard of colic before my son's diagnosis and along with that came other challenges I was not prepared for such as latching, pumping, and nursing pressures.
Self-awareness/Self-image
You will never look at yourself the same way again, and that could be a good thing as long as you understand how to lean into that and give yourself grace.
