My Postpartum Confinement + Tips to Remain Sane When "Sitting The Month"

Hi everyone and thanks for tuning in! Today's a bit of a different video. I don't usually do vlogs but I thought I'd share with you my experience doing a traditional Chinese postpartum confinement following the birth of my son Maxwell - also known as "sitting the month". Hopefully this helps anyone curious about this cultural practice or interested in knowing more. This isn't meant to be a comprehensive guide on how to do one, this is just me sharing you how mine went. Feel free to ask any questions you might in the comments below!
