Prenatal Multivitamin 💊

〰️ What is it

• A supplement which supports a healthy pregnancy and postpartum period by meeting the nutritional demands of a woman during her pregnancy and after giving birth. The key word here being supplement, as the purpose of the prenatal multivitamin is to supplement a healthy, whole food based diet.

〰️ When to take it

• All throughout pregnancy and for the duration of your breastfeeding journey. It's a common misconception that once your baby is born that you no longer require your prenatal multivitamin, however when a woman is breastfeeding her nutritional requirements are at an all time high and it's vital that these requirements are met. If not breastfeeding, it is still beneficial to continue taking your prenatal multivitamin for the first 6 weeks postpartum.

〰️ What to look for

• A capsule or tablet which requires more than one dosage daily. Ideally organic, and sourced from whole foods. Alternatively a supplement made with high quality synthetic ingredients in ideal forms. This is something I'll go over in more detail soon!

⌇ Maternal Mental Health Day + Week.𖦹

I opened my notes app countless times to attempt to craft the perfect caption to highlight a cause close to my heart. Every sentence I wrote was erased faster than it was written. Nothing fit. And writing from a place of performance on a topic that deserves so much more than a simple post I could create last minute didn't feel right either.

We are always told "you can't pour from an empty cup", and while this sentiment is true, this is not always possible for mothers, as there may not be the support, time or capacity to do otherwise. This is a story I know incredibly well. But I don't want this to be every mother's story.

I want for mothers to feel seen, heard and supported, whether this is through doula support, close female relationships or simply a sounding board through something as simple as a message. I am a big believer in a problem shared is a problem halved, and while we may not always gain or even seek a solution, sometimes just having a safe person or space to share can be incredibly powerful.

Whether we journey together or not, my messages are always open for a listening ear.

I’ve long felt a calling to support new mothers and to deeper the care I offer. The transition to doula work has been a journey that’s been coming for me for some time, but for whatever reason the timing never felt quite right.

And yet I still couldn’t stop thinking about this work. I love supporting those close to me, it comes so naturally. Anyone who knows me knows that cooking and feeding people is my love language. It lights me up like nothing else. 😍

I’ve done a lot of personal study and work around postpartum care, but I always knew I wanted to dive deeper into this work. So many times I’ve looked up “doula courses” and I’d get excited and know this was for me, but then not going through with it. On my most recent search I came across Jen's postpartum doula training (@jen_crawford_doula_wisdom), and it felt like this training was meant to find me. I just thought I can’t stop thinking about this, I have to go for it. So I reached out to Jen with my queries and she responded so warmly I knew instantly it was the right decision.

Having completed her training I feel so confident going into this work, it gave me a deeper understanding and compassion towards my role. I’m so grateful for her mentorship and wisdom that she’s shared, and the peer community she’s created for all of us.

I truly feel equipped and ready to step forward into this work professionally. I’m so excited to dive into this next chapter and truly support newly postpartum families.

This feels meant to be.

Marile ✨️🌞

As you may know I've recently paused my giftboxes, there was a couple of reasons for this, and as stock had also run down it felt like a natural place to take a break.

It's also allowed me to focus on what I truly want, and if I'm honest what I've always wanted when it comes to supporting mothers. Because of this, I'm so very excited to announce that I'll soon be training as a postpartum doula. I can't wait, I've wanted this for so many years but something in my mind was holding me back. I have for such a long time been drawn to nourishing mothers whether that's through food, thoughtful gestures or being a listening ear. I still can't quite believe it and I'm truly so excited to be able to offer in depth care and nourishment to new mothers.

I am so deeply passionate about postpartum care. It felt like the next natural step for me and I can't wait to see where this journey goes.

When I started this business, I wanted to create something that felt like a hug in a box.

Something that reminded new mothers they are still someone to be cared for, not just the ones doing the caring.

Every time I wrap a box, I think about the woman who will open it, she's likely tired and overwhelmed, but so deserving of softness.

That’s what this is really about for me, gentle reminders of care, comfort, and nourishment.

In those early weeks, nourishing yourself often slips to the bottom of the list. but your body is still doing so much healing and giving.

Snacks that can be eaten one-handed (often while feeding or rocking a baby) are such a simple way to keep your energy steady and your mood supported.

These cookies + stuffed dates are favourites for a reason; rich in fibre, minerals, and natural sweetness to replenish you mama.

A small reminder that you deserve as much care and nourishment as the little one you’re feeding. 🤍

Our Grounded Box includes handpicked postpartum snacks and staples to support your recovery with warmth and ease ✨️
