Famous quotes containing the words weeks and/or postpartum:
“I almost wished that I was still in prison. I felt I wasn’t ready to be out making
decisions.... Even now over three years after my release, I can carry around fifty rand for
two weeks and not spend it. I go into shops, but I find it hard to choose things.”
—Feziwe Bookholane (b. 1942)
“From three to six months, most babies have settled down enough to be fun but aren’t mobile enough to be getting into trouble. This is the time to pay some attention to your relationship again. Otherwise, you may spend the entire postpartum year thinking you married the wrong person and overlooking the obvious—that parenthood can create rough spots even in the smoothest marriage.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
