Postpartum Nurturing

29/12/2025

☕️You can still enjoy your cup of tea and toast while in early postpartum – please just stop making it your go-to when you’re hungry!

The best way to enjoy it without causing inflammation, though, is to have a good quality GF bread and a nut butter or avocado instead of dairy. And I use Nutty Bruce activated and unsweetened almond milk in my tea.

The problems begin when you’re not nourishing yourself daily with quality fats and proteins to heal and repair and support hormones.

So please mama, honour your body and what she’s been through and give her the nutrition she needs – with some tea and toast at times.

If you want more ideas on how to nourish yourself no matter how far postpartum you are, comment NOURISH.

Nourishing yourself after birth and over the first 4-8 weeks is one of the most important things you can do during postpartum.

Keeping your meals warm and simple like this easy carrot 🥕 and ginger 🫚 soup.

Comment “CARROT” if you’d like the recipe.

You know when you’ve got teens in the house and no more little ones! 😂

7am….we’re sitting at the Christmas tree looking through photos of 2025 and chatting quietly, with our cuppa… 8am and Z finally wakes up 😆

So we had to wake T up!

Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family.

In the early hours and days after birth, frequent feeding from both breasts may have you feeling tired and even a little emotional.

Hormones are fluctuating, your breastmilk volume is SLOWLY increasing and this is all normal.

In fact it’s been that way for centuries! If you are offered or encouraged to give your baby non-human milk so you can sleep - you can say NO.

As mothers, we are made perfectly for this task of tending to our newborns, while taking these days slow and quiet.

Eat nutritious, easy to digest and warm meals, rest, and just BE with your baby in these early days and weeks.

If you’re ready to empower yourself in pregnancy, birth and postpartum follow and share this with another mama on the same page.

Around 2008 I jumped on the raw vegan trend and green smoothies were my daily.

In fact I swear it was my green smoothies that stopped my morning sickness after being so nauseous for weeks ….

After I had my 4th and 5th babies I continued them, thinking I was getting lots of nutrients … but I was experiencing gallbladder attacks, reflux and exhaustion

🌿Here’s what I know now:

🧊Cold smoothies are not what a postpartum body needs.

🔸We have lower digestive enzymes so our body can focus energy on healing and repairing

🍲Warm, easy to digest nutrient rich foods are going to be far more beneficial.

🔸Depletion can happen even if eating whole foods - if you’re stressed, cortisol is high, digestive system is changed and food will sit heavy… your body isn’t absorbing much of the nutrients.

🔸Add lack of sleep, breastmilk production, unprocessed trauma and not much support …

And things can start changing into many health issues.

This is my first green smoothie in years and I’m not saying they’re no good but they definitely aren’t in any traditional cultural practices for mothers in the early weeks postpartum.

What’s going on!??

Supplements aren’t necessarily the answer (though the marketing will tell you it is),
Meditation doesn’t get to the root cause (though that’s not what the system is about)

What if you can empower yourself with knowledge about your postpartum needs, and have a protocol to replenish your energy and body?

If you’re ready to learn more comment “Replenish” or send me a DM

It’s one thing to eat well after having your baby but if those foods are not being digested well, you’re not going to absorb much of the goodness.

And your body needs lots of nutrients not only for your own healing and recovery but also breastfeeding your baby.

Have you ever hugged a magnificent tree? 🌳

Today I held a beautiful Jacaranda tree asking for it to clear my mind as I sent it love 💜
(Jacaranda bush flower essence helps with being decisive and centred.)

If you have an unsettled baby/child they may respond well to a tree too. 🌲

It’s sure what I needed today.

What’s your favourite tree?
