» Welcome to 24 hours with our newborn! Join me during my calm, slow & intentional postpartum self care routine.
I made a big effort to prioritize my wellbeing postpartum & I’m so glad I did because it’s overall been a very positive and empowering experience. I spent a lot of time learning & preparing to set myself up for success and I’d like to share that process with you.
Linked below are some of the postpartum resources, reads, people to follow & products I loved and found useful.
*Every human is different, every day is different* Please don’t compare our journeys or others 🙂

and put them in this warmer (yes it’s worth it) –

Our change table is called Keekaroo & it’s SO handy. Wipes clean and is a soft touch surface for baby. It’s more $ but you use it so many times a day it’s well worth it.
