It's no secret that we love a focus on nourishment of moms and babies in the fourth trimester. (We love it in every trimester, but that's an aside). Not only have you completed a MASSIVE physical and emotional marathon, but you're now sore, sleep deprived, and oh yeah, caring for a helpless tiny human.
It's a wild time, and putting together healthy meals and snacks can feel like a big challenge. Having a plan can make a big difference though! That's why we love how MealTrains makes it easy for us to show love to moms in our community. And no, this isn't sponsered, we just love this website!
With MealTrains, you simply need to fill in basic information for the recipient (yourself, or someone else) and it creates a very simple sign-up sheet that is easy to access and share. People simple pull up the link, pick a time and delivery location, and if you want, leave a note saying what meal they will bring.
Some of our favorite features:
-Ease of use, even the less tech savvy among us will have no problem using this website!
-It's easy to share simple parameters, including number of people, what type of meals are most helpful, and a spot to list allergies or ingredients you avoid!
-A spot to include cash gifts or grocery giftcards, which can be especially useful for NICU families.
In case you need some meal offering alternatives to the standard lasange, here's a few meals that our clients have enjoyed recently:
A meal trian is more than just a food delivery system-it's a tangible way to support parents as they navigate the early days of postpartum life. By easing the more mundane burdens of meal prep and cooking, you can "gift" them the time to focus on healing, bonding, and caring for their new baby.
Whether you're a family member, a friend, or a neighbor, pitching in for meals can make a difference during this season. It reminds people that they are cared for, and not alone.
