Postpartum Nourishment : the first 6 weeks

  • Weeks 1-2

    The first 2 weeks postpartum, we focus on soft, warming foods that are hydrating & easily digestible. Your body needs nutrient rich foods so it can heal and build energy. I use ingredients that are blood building, warming, healing, hydrating, high in protein, easy to digest, & promote milk production. The ultimate comfort foods!

    Congee

    Bone Broth

    Soups

    Stews

    Warming Milks/Teas

    Stewed Fruits

    Roasted Veggies

    Oatmeal & Porridge

    Rice Pudding

    Kitchari

  • Weeks 3-6

    As the body has been working hard to heal over the past couple weeks, we can open to a wider range of options. We still want to focus on the comfort foods and healing foods, but we can introduce heartier, heavier foods and also mix in some more sweets and warm grain salads. In addition to all the offerings for week 1-2, we add the following to our menu options.

    Burritos

    Meatballs

    Frittatas

    Hearty Waffles

    Warm Grain Salads

    Lettuce Wraps

    Fried Rice

    Gnocchi

    Sweet Energy Bites
