You don’t need fancy recipes to eat more protein postpartum.

Sometimes it’s:
• Greek yoghurt while holding a baby
• eggs on toast
• a smoothie because you forgot lunch again
• random snack plates eaten standing up 😅

Protein can help with:
✨ energy
✨ fullness
✨ blood sugar balance
✨ recovery postpartum

Simple > perfect.

‘Sleep when the baby sleeps’ sounds so relaxing in theory… until you suddenly need to:
✨ clean the house
✨ do the washing
✨ unload the dishwasher
✨ attempt basic self care
✨ and reset your entire life before the baby wakes up again 😂

And somehow they ALWAYS wake up the second you finally sit down 😭

Mums… tell me this isn’t accurate.

Not all cooking oils are created equal 👏🏼
The oils you cook with daily can impact inflammation, heart health, hormones, energy, and overall wellbeing.

✨ Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Rich in antioxidants and healthy monounsaturated fats that support heart and brain health.

✨ Avocado Oil
High smoke point + packed with healthy fats and vitamin E, making it great for higher heat cooking.

✨ Coconut Oil
Contains MCTs that may support energy metabolism and is naturally stable at higher temperatures.

✨ Ghee
Rich in fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E & K and naturally lactose-free from the clarification process.

Simple ingredient swaps over time can support long-term health for the whole family 🤍

Which oil do you use the most in your kitchen? 👇🏼

Trying to focus on simple habits instead of perfection lately 🤍

More protein.
More real food.
More nourishment.
Less pressure.

Postpartum health isn’t about ‘bouncing back’ — it’s about rebuilding.

If I could go back and support my postpartum self again…

I’d prioritise:
🤍 rest
🤍 nourishment
🤍 hydration
🤍 support
🤍 realistic expectations
🤍 recovery over pressure

Postpartum isn’t just about caring for a baby.
It’s also about caring for the mother who just gave birth.

And mums deserve support too 🤍

Whoever said motherhood is magical clearly never changed a blowout with one wipe left 😂

Motherhood was never meant to look exactly the same for everyone 🤍

There are a million different ways to be a good mum.

And most of us are just doing the best we can with the season we’re in.

Stop buying gummies. Make these instead. 🍓

These are homemade berry gummies made with just:
• Frozen berries
• Water
• Chia seeds
• Gelatine

That’s it. No packets, no guessing what’s in them.

Why I love them 👇
✨ Gelatine supports gut & connective tissue
✨ Chia adds fibre
✨ Naturally sweet from fruit
✨ Perfect fridge or freezer snack for kids

If your kids love gummies, this is such an easy swap.

👉 Save this so you remember it
👉 Share with a mum who’s always buying gummies

If feeding suddenly feels harder around 6–8 weeks, you’re not imagining it.

This is a common developmental shift — babies become more alert and feeding patterns change.
It can feel unsettling, especially if things were going smoothly before.

For most families, this phase passes with time and support 🤍

Save this for reassurance.
