About Fourth Trimester Doc

Bio

Nobody talks about the difficult realities of postpartum. Fourth Trimester Doc addresses this need by offering integrative, specialized care for birthing people and their infants in the comfort of their own homes. Our experienced physicians support you at every stage, with lactation expertise, physical health assessments, and mental health resources. With a limited practice size, extended appointments, and 24/7 access, we ensure attentive, compassionate care to empower your postpartum journey!

Q&A

Q: What are your certifications and trainings?

A: Dr. Michelle Haggerty is a Board Certified Integrative Family Physician, Breastfeeding & Lactation Medicine Specialist, and Perinatal Mental Health Specialist. She has training in Mind-Body Medicine, Reiki, and Prenatal Yoga. Also, she was one of the first physicians in the country and Minnesota to be boarded in Breastfeeding & Lactation Medicine!

Q: What drew you into working with parents-to-be?

A: Fourth Trimester Doc was founded after Dr. Haggerty's postpartum experience highlighted a lack of support for new mothers. With a focus on in-home care, we provide specialized support for both mothers and newborns. Our practice is the first of its kind in Minnesota, aiming to revolutionize postpartum care and restore traditional support systems.

Q: Are there any specialities in who you serve? (e.g. home birth, VBAC, etc.)

A: Fourth Trimester Doc specializes in providing comprehensive in-home care for new mothers and their infants, focusing on postpartum health, lactation support, and mental wellness. We aim to empower families during the critical fourth trimester, ensuring both mothers and babies receive the attention and care they deserve!
