The Nourish Bundle - Daily Essentials for the First 40 Days

The early weeks of postpartum aren’t the time for complicated routines. They’re the time for something warm in your hand, something grounding in your body, and something nourishing that takes less than five minutes.

This bundle is exactly that. Four of Mother Moon’s most loved everyday essentials, chosen to work together as a simple daily rhythm for the mother in the thick of her fourth trimester.

Not a protocol. Not a plan. Just the right things, consistently, in a form you can actually reach for.

Red Raspberry Leaf, Yarrow, Shepherd’s Purse, Dandelion and Milk Thistle. The classic midwives’ herbs, traditionally used to support the womb’s natural healing and return after birth, and the body’s recovery through the first 40 days.

Ceremonial cacao with Ashwagandha, Reishi, Maca, Mesquite and Rose. Adaptogens traditionally used to calm the nervous system and support hormonal balance through the big shifts after birth. Naturally rich in magnesium and iron, warming and genuinely delicious, and built around the calm-milk connection.

The lactation cookie that started it all. Oats, Moringa, Flaxseed and three-ingredient dark chocolate, with no preservatives, no emulsifiers, no refined sugar and no dairy. Ready in 15 minutes with just coconut oil and water. R10 from every bag goes to the Tula Baba Foundation.

Pure Peptan® Type I and III collagen peptides, rich in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, the amino acid building blocks your body uses for tissue repair. Collagen is the structural protein behind your skin, joints and connective tissue, all of which have been through so much in pregnancy and birth. Unflavoured and fully soluble, so add it to anything.

Take Mama’s Little Helper as directed: 3 pumps under the tongue or in a little warm water, twice daily, morning and evening, ideally before meals. Make Let It Flow Latte your morning or afternoon ritual. Bake a batch of Titscuits on Sunday and keep them beside the feeding chair. Stir a heaped tablespoon of collagen into your morning drink or evening Golden Moon Milk. That’s your daily rhythm.

If your bleeding is heavy, suddenly increases or you are worried, contact your midwife or doctor straight away.

Every Mother Moon product is handcrafted in small batches in Cape Town and packed with care by the Joyce Chevalier Centre, a disability employment centre we are proud to work with.
