The Postnatal Plan
Don’t just prepare for birth. Prepare for what comes after.
You’ve probably spent time thinking about your birth.
But what about the days and weeks after?
The reality is — this is where many women feel:
Overwhelmed
Undersupported
Completely unprepared
Not because they’ve done anything wrong…
But because no one showed them how to prepare for it
The Postnatal Plan
I am on a mission. To get a Postnatal Plan in the hands of everyone first time mum to be. It blows my mind still that we are not encouraged to plan out these weeks just like you would plan your birth!
The plan is beautifully designed fill-in PDF workbook which includes:
🧠 Prompts for planning physical, emotional & practical support, journal space and an 12 month undated calendar.
📝 The plan can be filled in online aswell as printed out, and shared with your support networks
🎁 And to make sure it's not something that sits there and doesn't get completed - book in for a short call to get started & ask any questions you have
✅ Get clear on your postnatal needs — not just the baby’s
✅ Build a plan that supports your recovery, rest, emotions, and mental load
✅ Think ahead to your support systems, sleep expectations, meal prep & more
✅ Avoid the “I wish I’d known” moments so many women face
✅ Feel anchored and emotionally prepped — not lost in the haze
" April made us think about things we hadn't really considered & think about things in more depth. Thinking about how we want our experience to be rather than thinking about how it 'should' be.
Realising how things will work for us & our lifestyle. Knowing that everyone has different ideas about how to handle such a life-changing event & that it's ok to do things exactly how we want rather than how someone else thinks we should."
