A companion for the most tender weeks of your life

For thousands of years, families protected the weeks after birth. The new mother rested. Someone else cooked. Warm hands cared for her body. And at the end, the family gathered to welcome her back.

This companion brings that care into your home, in a way that fits your family, your heritage, and your faith.

Inside

• Part 1, The forty days: the five phases at a glance, how to rest, warmth and nourishment, three warming recipes, and gentle touch for you and your baby
• Part 2, The village: printable Village Role Cards for your helpers, pages for partners, grandparents, and big siblings, and a closing ceremony for day 40
• Part 3, Your daily companion: a daily rhythm, 40 journal prompts, a letter to your baby and to yourself, a daily page, a 40-day tracker, a weekly check-in, and a warning-signs page

It takes two minutes a day. Fill in your daily page, answer one prompt (even one line is enough), and watch your forty days unfold. Perfect as a gift for a baby shower or a Mother Blessing.
