There are so many parts of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum that surprise first-time (and even repeat) moms. Many of them are healthy, common occurrences, but can be scary if you don’t know they’re coming.
When you breastfeed, it’s natural to worry about whether you’re producing enough milk—after all, you can’t actually see how much your baby is getting. In one survey, more than 57% of nursing women reported turning to supplements, teas, or certain foods in hopes of boosting their supply.
There’s nothing quite like bringing home a newborn, with all the joy, wonder, and—yes, exhaustion 🙃
The first few hours, days, and weeks after childbirth are critical for building your milk supply. Knowing the basics of breastfeeding will help you take advantage of this important window.
There’ll be quite a few visits to the pediatrician during your baby’s first year.

During the first few days after delivery, a surprising amount of your time and brainspace will be dedicated to figuring out how to feed your baby.
Stock your freezer with easy, delicious, and nutrient-dense foods to support your postpartum recovery.
