HAVING A BABY TAKES A VILLAGE


We will be organizing a meal train for Madison from Mama Meals to make sure Madison is nourished and well fed after baby arrives. Please click on the link below as a way to give a meal to mommy directly from the Momma Meals website. "Mama Meals recipes" specialize in postpartum food designed specifically for new Moms. Each bite is thoughtfully crafted using ancestral principles from Chinese medicine and approved by experienced nutritionists and postpartum experts.  

As most of you know, Madison has a gluten intolerance which has a huge impact on her immune system. Madison has made the decision to nurse baby Lawson and will need to fuel her body properly. Increased proteins, fluids and calories hold true, and the extra energy it takes to breastfeed will make it super important to be vigilant to her diet. Helping to fill her body with the essential nutrients needed for a smooth recovery would be like sending a BIG warm huge to mommy and baby both.

As most of us know, welcoming your little bundle of joy into the world is a beautiful experience, but hardly anyone talks about how the postpartum period can be, well… sort of ugly. Between constantly changing dressings and dirty diapers, washing endless dishes and laundry, and feeding your new baby, it can be challenging to care for yourself. 

The best way to support a postpartum Mama is by feeding her warm, nourishing, organic food based in ancient traditions to heal the mind, body and soul.

If you'd like to support her you can (Cashapp/Vemo) me and I'll add your contribution to the pot, or, you can get her a gift card or order meals to directly be sent to her house here (https://mama-meals.com/products/gift-card).

Just don’t forget to add which day you pick to the calandra below. 

THANK YOU A BUNDLE AND A BUNCH 🩵

WE LOVE YOU!

<p>Give a new parent the Gift of Gobble. Gobble is a delivery of freshly prepped gourmet meals that are ready in just 15 minutes. Voted #1 Meal Kit by Parents Magazine. Gobble's chefs do all the prep work, like peeling, chopping &amp; marinating, so you can cook a fresh homemade dinner in just 15 minutes. Get dinner on the table - even when you aren't there to deliver it or they aren't where there are delivery services just yet. (And even so, the smell of dinner in a house can be a really nice thing).</p>
<p><strong>Why We Love This Gift:</strong> Ask a veteran mom about a memory of early momdom and she will likely recall attempting to cook a meal with an infant. When there is success the meal is more than a meal - it is competence regained. It is evidence that despite seeming evidence to the contrary that <em>you got this.</em> Plus, it is pretty cozy to have success with a home cooked meal, babies. Nothing beats it.</p>
<p><strong>What To Say in Your Card:</strong> Congratulations! Now you can even have a glass of wine.</p>

<p>This e-gift card allows access to all Walmart products. Useful for anyone anywhere.</p>
<p><strong>Why We Love This Gift:</strong> We love this gift because it offers access to things like pharmacies when a family you love is in need. Many aspects of surgical care are not covered by insurance - these expenses can add up. This is especially true when a family is on a fixed income. Items like canes, walkers, surgical gauze, and more - can all be underwritten in this way. (Bonus: It respects, as well, the privacy and dignity of the person you love). Supplements that are doctor recommended (always check) can also be covered in this manner. Walmart also just has everything so for someone who has lost their job it enables them to get what they need without spelling it all out. People are proud.</p>
<p><strong>What To Express in Your Card:</strong> You'd do exactly the same. xo</p>

<p>Everyone loves a clean house. That's about all there is to say about that.</p>
<p><strong>Why We Love This Gift:  </strong>This gift is a terrific one for anyone anywhere. Absolute convenience and versatility. (And such a gift). There are so many ways in which this gift works for everyone. In a medical crisis, for example, an orderly house is critical especially if treatment renders someone immune-compromised. For a single parent trying to keep up with things a clean house can be a major stress buster. Seniors living alone could often use a little help in the deep clean department.</p>
