You made a birth plan. Now, it’s time to
make a plan for you afterward.
Everyone prepares for the baby. No one prepares for the mama.
You know what gets a lot of attention before a baby arrives? The nursery. The registry. The birth plan. The color-coded list of what goes in the hospital bag and in what order.
You know what gets almost none? What happens to you after you come home.
Your physical recovery. Your mental health. Your sleep. Your meals. Who's handling the laundry. Whether your mother-in-law is allowed to just show up unannounced on day three. (Spoiler alert: she is not. Unless you want her to! Your house, your rules.)
The postpartum period is one of the most physically demanding, emotionally overwhelming, identity-shifting seasons a human being can go through — and most of us walk into it with a fully stocked diaper caddy and absolutely zero plan for ourselves.
Not on my watch, Mama.
WHAT’S INSIDE
Your Postpartum Plan is a free, fill-in resource that helps you think through and document what you need to feel supported in every area of your postpartum life.
→ A completed postpartum plan that actually covers you — not just the baby's schedule. Something you can share with your partner & your support team.
→ A clearer picture of what you need to feel okay, physically, mentally, and emotionally, so that when someone asks "what can I do?" you have an actual answer instead of saying "oh, we're fine" on autopilot.
→ A way to identify your own warning signs early, because the moms who ask for help soonest are the ones who knew what to look for.
→ A support team roster that's actually filled in — so that when you're in the thick of a hard moment at 3am, you're not trying to remember who you can call. It's already written down.
→ Permission, actually documented and in your own handwriting — to rest, recover, set boundaries, and put yourself on the list too.
MEET YOUR MOTHERHOOD THERAPIST
Hi, I'm Gina — licensed therapist, Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional (PMH-C), and a mom whose postpartum experience was, to put it mildly, a lot.
Twin pregnancy, pre-term labor, NICU, c-section, pre-eclampsia — you can read the full story here.
The short version is that I learned the hard way that postpartum prep isn't just about the baby. And I built this postpartum care plan because of it.
It’s exactly what I wish someone had handed me before I left the hospital. And it's designed to help you think through your own care before you're in the thick of it.
Because taking care of you is taking care of them, Mama.
You planned for everything else. Plan for you too.
The baby has a pediatrician lined up. The car seat is installed. The nursery is ready, with a closet organized by size, color, and season (because of course it is).
Now do the thing that matters just as much:
Make a plan for your own care.
It takes five minutes to download and as long as you need to fill it in. And it might be the most important thing you do to prepare for postpartum.
