Resources & Recommendations

The Fourth Trimester Resources and Recommendations list helps support our goal of finding and sharing the best resources that empower parents to take care of themselves and their families.

Here at Fourth Trimester Podcast I’m constantly being asked for advice on resources and products we love. If something is posted here, it is because I’ve personally had a good experience with the resource or product. No companies paid to be listed here. I only recommend what I myself genuinely approves of and trusts.

So, here’s a list of some of the items I use day to day that help me live more efficiently, productively and happily. I’ve already trialled and errored on your behalf so this list represents the things that actually work consistently well. The recommendations are based on what I have found to be really time-saving and enriching in a number of categories:

• Parenting
• Travel

By the way, the links may be affiliates or sponsors in some cases because we only work with advertisers I love. We definitely appreciate you using my codes and links because it supports our work – just use the link so long as it is the best deal you can find!
