The Ultimate Postpartum Essentials Guide
Everything You Actually Need to Feel Cared For, Not Caught Off Guard
You’re Preparing for Baby
But Are You Prepared for You?
Everyone talks about labor.
But few talk about what happens after.
The discomfort. The recovery. The “is this normal?” moments that sneak up at 3 a.m.
And the quiet truth most don’t say out loud: you’re expected to care for a newborn while healing from birth yourself.
This free guide was created to help change that.
The Ultimate Postpartum Essentials Guide gives you a clear, supportive list of what you’ll really need during those first tender weeks, because this time isn’t just about baby.
It’s about you, too.
Imagine Feeling Cared For
Not Caught Off Guard
Picture this: You’ve just come home from the hospital or birthing center. You’re sore, swollen, emotional, and unsure what your body needs next. But instead of scrambling...
You already have healing sprays, pads, and comfort tools within reach
Your partner knows exactly how to support you
Your fridge is stocked with nourishing snacks
You have what you need for feeding, sleeping, soothing, without midnight Amazon searches
Most importantly, you feel prepared and supported
That’s what this guide helps you do. It’s more than a checklist, it’s peace of mind in PDF form.
Stop Wondering If You Have the “Right” Stuff
It’s not just about having the things, it’s about knowing why they matter.
Inside, you’ll find:
The best healing tools to make bathroom trips less terrifying
Essentials for managing postpartum bleeding and soreness
Simple, one-handed snacks to keep your energy up during cluster feeds
Items to reduce swelling, support your core, and help you rest
A curated list built by a postpartum doula and real mom, not a mega-retailer pushing products
There’s no fluff, just the items that actually make those early days more manageable, more comfortable, and more healing.
A Note From Janae
After having my own children, I realized something most new moms do:
You can prep for birth, read all the books, and still feel completely unprepared for postpartum.
That’s why I became a postpartum doula, to offer the kind of care I wish I had.
This guide is my way of making sure you feel seen, supported, and better equipped to care for yourself as you care for your baby.
Because postpartum is not just about getting through the hard days, It’s about healing, adjusting, and thriving with the right care in place.
Your Healing Deserves This
You shouldn’t have to piece together care from TikToks, Reddit threads, or late-night Google searches.
This guide helps you:
Build your postpartum care station
Get clear on what’s really helpful (and what’s not)
Feel confident heading into recovery, not anxious
You deserve to walk into this sacred season knowing what to expect, and how to support your body with care.
Let’s make postpartum smoother, together.
