Why You'll Love It
About the Author:
MAMA, AUTHOR, POSTPARTUM DOULA, NUTRITION CONSULTANT & COOK
Four years ago I had a grand vision to trade my Mexican cantina for a boat and set sail for a few years. I didn’t expect to find motherhood on the horizon.
The day I sold my Mexican restaurant, I found out I was pregnant and my vision for the foreseeable future suddenly changed course. With little to no understanding of pregnancy, birth or motherhood, I dedicated my pregnancy to study, exploration and research.
While I found an abundance of resources helping mothers through pregnancy and birth and countless books dedicated to raising children, there was very little dialogue around what follows birth for the mother.
With only a handful of voices championing the importance of the postpartum period and the essential role loved ones play in shaping a new mother’s experience, I felt it was time to re-write our cultural narrative and begin educating those around expectant and new mothers.
After writing the first edition of the book, I went on to study holistic pregnancy and postpartum nutrition through Oh Baby and now work as a Nutrition Consultant and Postpartum Doula. I am deeply passionate about normalising the gathering of a village to support new mums, about educating friends and family around the importance of support and nourishment during the early weeks of motherhood, and the impact this has on recovery, breastfeeding, maternal wellbeing and mental health.
What a magical gift for someone or yourself during the sacred pregnancy and postpartum stages!
This came recommended from Clare from LTB and i was so happy to see all the beautiful recipes and the idea behind this gift being that you can pass around the recipes you desire to your village and they have all the cooking, recipe, storage guidelines that are necessary making the postpartum journey a smooth one, this DEFINITELY takes the stress away from planning for postpartum and supporting your village to support you.
