Ever wonder what really goes into your postpartum care? Here’s everything that happens before we arrive on day 1.

At Sanhu House, every family’s journey begins with deep listening and intentional planning, because your story and needs matter. There’s no “one size fits all”. We meet with you to talk through your goals, your past experiences, and what you want.

A detail you might not expect: we even consider things like your preferred bedside setup or how you want nighttime support to look, so your care feels seamless from day one.

If you have any questions about our process, we’d love to hear from you. This is postpartum, properly.

Not all doulas are trained the same.

Sanhu House doulas are grounded in Sanhujori—a structured recovery model where every action serves one goal: helping mothers rest, heal, and thrive.

They don’t work alone. They work as a team: primary doula + concierge coordination + specialists. Handoffs are standardized. Notes are shared. Care is continuous.

They design your physical space for healing—temperature, light, sound, rituals. They’re trained in lactation support, postpartum massage, herbal foot soaks, and nourishing soup preparation. And they follow a philosophy, not a task list.

The result? Mothers feel supported at the deepest level—not just through logistics, but through a coherent, compassionate system built entirely around recovery.

If you’re looking for care that is structured, mother-centered, and rooted in a recovery-first philosophy, we’re here

This is miyeok-guk (korean seaweed soup). Korean mothers traditionally eat this every single day for weeks after birth because it’s gentle on digestion and provides warmth, minerals, iodine, and is believed to support milk production and blood recovery. Save this for your postpartum meal prep list 🥣

The basic recipe:

1 oz dried miyeok (Korean seaweed), soaked 10–15 min
1–2 tbsp sesame oil
4 oz beef brisket (or skip for vegetarian/use mushrooms)
6–8 cups water or bone broth
1–2 tbsp soup soy sauce, salt to taste

Heat sesame oil. Brown the beef. Add seaweed and stir-fry 2–3 minutes (this step matters—it deepens flavor and aids digestion). Add liquid. Simmer 25–40 minutes until tender and the soup tastes clean, not aggressive. Season gently.
Eat it hot or with rice. Daily if you’re serious about recovery.
Vegetarian? Swap beef with shiitake mushrooms or omit entirely.
