Preparing For Postpartum During Autumn
are you preparing for a postpartum journey during the autumn months? i love adding pops of cozy along a big seasonal change from warm long summer days to short cooler days. THESE SEASONAL SHIFTS HAPPEN DURING the BIGGEST tender shift of maiden to motherhood.
here are a few of my favorite tips for preparing for your postpartum during autumn 🧺
🧺 TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SEASONAL SPICES: I LOVE CINNAMON, NUTMEG AND SO MANY OTHER WARMING SPICES. THIS SEASON IT IS SO EASY TO FIND THESE SPICES FRESH AND THIS IS THE TIME TO STOCK UP. FIND COMFORT IN SPRINKLING CINNAMON ON YOUR OATMEAL, DRINKING SPICED TEA AND SIPPING ON CLOVE SPICED PUMPKIN SOUP. LIVING SEASONALLY CAN REALLY HELP GROUND US AND HELP US TO BE PRESENT.
🧺 pULL OUT YOUR WOOL SOCKS: DURING POSTPARTUM I LOVE ENCOURAGING MOMMAS TO WEAR SOCKS. DURING SUMMER TIME THIS CAN OFTEN BE SUPER CHALLENGING WITH THE HEAT BUT AS WE GET CLOSER TO FALL THIS CAN BE SO COMFORTING. I LOVE WOOL BECAUSE IT IS BREATHABLE - WARMING AND COOLING WHEN NEEDED. THE FABRIC REALLY ADAPTS TO YOUR OWN BODY HEAT AND ALLOWS MOISTURE OUT. SOCKS ARE SHOWN IN SO MANY STUDIES AS SUPPORTIVE OF BETTER SLEEP AND I HAVE TO AGREE. I NOTICE MY MOMMA CLIENTS FEEL MORE CENTERED AND COMFORTED WHEN WEARING SOCKS.
🧺 wARM BOWLS OF OATMEAL SOUNDS GOOD: FINALLY WARMING GRAIN BOWLS LIKE OATMEAL HITS THE SPOT DURING THE FALL MONTHS. I LOVE DRIED FRUIT LIKE RAISINS AND PRUNES + CINNAMON AND NUTMEG SPICES TO TOP THE PERFECT BOWL. CREATE OVERNIGHT OATS BY PLACING OATS, MILK AND SPICES IN A BOWL. ALLOW IT TO SIT OVERNIGHT IN THE FRIDGE AND WARM IT UP IN THE MORNING.
🧺 THEME YOUR NESTING PARTY: CREATE AN AUTUMNAL THEME AT YOUR NESTING PARTY INCLUDING MAKING BASKETS FILLED WITH COZY ITEMS YOU WILL NEED. I LOVE MAKING BATCHES OF WARMING PUMPKIN MUFFINS FOR THE BEDSIDE BASKET.
🧺 THINK CANDLES: I LOVE ENCOURAGING MY MOMMA CLIENTS TO PURCHASE SPECIAL CANDLES DURING THEIR POSTPARTUM. ALWAYS CHOOSE SOY BASED CANDLES MADE WITH ESSENTIAL OILS FOR A NON TOXIC OPTION. HAVING A NEW SCENT DURING POSTPARTUM CAN CREATE A REALLY TENDER BEAUTIFUL MEMORY. CANDLES CAN BE ALSO BE SUPER COZY WHILE YOU ARE UP IN THE NIGHT WITH YOUR BABY.
HAPPY HEALING!
