Our story

In May 2021, two GP mums on maternity leave were tearing our hair out (literally, clumps of it) about how tricky it was to find reliable information about postpartum health issues. We started searching the internet - and the amount of misinformation we came across was astounding - but also the huge lack of focus on the recovery of a woman after she's given birth. There's so much available after the birth of a baby - less so about the birth of a mother.  We asked new mums whether they felt they had enough information about their postnatal recovery, and were shocked to discover that 86% of them admitted to experiencing changes in their body and emotions that they weren't expecting. 


We've made it our mission to change that.
