This is my third baby so I already know how demanding the postpartum recovery period is for your body while taking care of a newborn.
A couple weeks before my due date, I pre-ordered meals made specifically for recovery and nursing, delivered right to my door from Fresh in Your Fridge, a Vancouver-based custom meal prep and personal chef service.

You know how people say moms love to plan? Well, this was THE BEST THING I did for myself postpartum.

I ordered four weeks of meals and ended up sharing most of it with my husband Steve who is on parental leave. The portion sizes were generous enough to cover weekday lunches for both of us. On top of that, we had bone broths (perfect for sipping in the mornings), hearty soups, herbal tea infusions, and a steady rotation of snacks (chickpea blondies, lactation bites, oatmeal cookies, carrot muffins) throughout the week.
Everything is designed to be nourishing, easy to digest, and supportive for postpartum with ingredients like healthy fats from nuts, warming broths, and nutrient-dense grains like quinoa and forbidden rice, plus lots of veggies. I loved that I didn’t have to think about what to eat, something healthy was always there!

I also appreciated that everything arrived freshly frozen, so you can save anything you don’t finish for later.
Pricing starts at $295 (or $995 for 4 weeks), and you can save 10% with code modernmix10. You can also use this discount code for their regular personalized chef services.
Taking care of yourself matters just as much as taking care of your little one. For me, the postpartum meal service from Fresh in Your Fridge was absolutely worth it. If you’re expecting, or know a mom-to-be in Vancouver, let them know about Fresh in Your Fridge!
