Things I share with the moms I work with.
A toolkit I wrote, the shops where I keep my recommendations, and two numbers worth saving in your phone before you need them.
The Postpartum Anxiety Toolkit
This is the Toolkit I wish someone had shared with me before I became a first-time mother.

You don't have to read it start to finish. Skim the contents, open the section that matches the moment you're in, and take what's useful. If you're spiraling at 2am, that's what it was written for.
Contents
- What postpartum anxiety actually feels like
- What causes postpartum anxiety to intensify
- Calm-down tools
- Read this when…
- Support scripts
- Daily self-care habits
- When you need more support
Plus a welcome letter and a short page on how to use it.
If you need help right now.
This site isn't an emergency service, and messages sent through it aren't monitored around the clock. If you're in crisis, or you're worried about your safety or your baby's, please use one of these instead. Both are free, confidential, and answered 24 hours a day.
Where I keep my recommendations.
I keep the things I point moms toward in two places rather than on this page, so they stay current as they change.
Some seasons need more than a download.
If you'd like to talk it through with someone, I'd love to hear from you.
