“Only Moms can help moms, which is why it’s so exciting to see Christine and Sarah bringing fourth-trimester care to the greater Ann Arbor area. I personally know these amazing women, and if anyone can bring Sacred Fourth into reality, it’s them! Our community of perinatal and postnatal support providers are ready to welcome and support the Sacred Fourth”.
— Ariel Wan
Founder of The Mama’s Network and Little Break: Coworking and Parent Center
“The ‘fourth trimester’ is one of the most critical yet overlooked phases of both maternal and newborn care in the United States. While enormous attention is placed on pregnancy and delivery, the postpartum period often lacks the same level of structure, support, and cultural recognition, leaving many women feeling abandoned. Sarah and Christine are spotlighting and supporting women in their physical recovery, emotional well-being, and transitioning into the new changes. Their focus on improving fourth trimester care means rethinking postpartum support as a continuum rather than an afterthought. Treating it with the same importance as pregnancy and birth isn’t just beneficial—it’s necessary”!
— Daisy Howlin
Owner and Cofounder of the Stone Chalet
“Watching Christine bring Sacred Fourth into our community has been so inspiring. She leads with so much intention, compassion, and care, always going above and beyond to support the women around her. She’s creating something truly special—a space where women feel seen, supported, and connected. Our community is so lucky to have her”.

“Williams and Rodrigues plan to open Sacred Fourth, a perinatal wellness center named for the “fourth trimester,” or postpartum period. They will offer movement classes, educational workshops, nutritious meals, and doula support to new moms. […] Meantime, Rodrigues and Williams plan to host pop-up day retreats this summer while they work out the details and funding for a permanent space”.
