“Fourth Trimester was designed as an answer to the pain points of parenthood in those first early days,” says Megan Francis, co-founder of Fourth Trimester Postnatal Retreat.

“As a healthcare provider and new mom myself, the support at Fourth Trimester is exactly what I, and my new family, wished for in my days after delivering. Between the unique, individualized experience at The Watergate Hotel, coupled with a wider, more accessible parenting community that supports you from conception through the first 12 weeks after giving birth, we have options and offerings for most every budget.”
