Just got 'The First Forty Days' in the mail, and from reading other reviews, I was expecting it to mainly be recipes with a smidgen of info on postpartum care sprinkled out. To my surprise and delight, it's much more helpful and informative than that. Recipes account for roughly 1/3 of the page count.
I didn't have this book for my first born, but I will have it on hand for my second, and I'm so excited for that!!

This was both informational and validating. It was refreshing to read a book designed solely for the care of the new mother (which in turn benefits the baby and the rest of the family too!) I really enjoyed it and I’m glad I purchased it.

The book is beautiful and even though my kids are now 4, I keep it on my shelf displayed proudly. I still use some recipes and just appreciate all of the information I find myself still checking it for things. My sister just had a baby a few weeks ago and I read it again as well as gifted her a copy. I showed up with a basket of goodies from the book and the knowledge of how to support her. The first 45 days can be such a beautiful and magic time... this book just makes sure you are intentional.
Beautiful book & much needed for every new mother

I purchased this book before I had my twins as I loved everything it represented. Nourishing the new mother and taking that time to recover is so important! This book dove into other cultures and how they care for new mothers, unlike the US when mothers are expected to be back to normal and running the next day. I am obsessed with all things nutrition, rituals and cooking. This book encased everything I am passionate about and it made me so happy. I have gifted this book to every new mother to be I know. I also make the Gooey Chocolate Brownies & Vanilla Coconut Haystacks for every mother after birth.Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2023
