Did you know the #1 preventative factor for maternal mental health conditions is SOCIAL SUPPORT (which is exactly what you’re doing when you create a 4th trimester plan!). You don't just have to wait and see if you experience maternal mood challenges, there are ways to reduce your risk factors!
Food & Nutrition
“Let food be thy medicine...”
-Hippocrates

Growing a baby (and possibly breastfeeding) takes a lot out of a person. Prevent postnatal depletion by leveraging the right blend of nourishing, nutrient dense food and create a firm foundation for your healing. Additionally, ease the overwhelm finding the prenatal vitamin to compliment your style of eating. We got you!

“In communities where you see more support, there is less depression.”
-Ariel Gore
