      Hi Leila,
      Its Gerrie 🙂 Congratulations on this incredible village you are creating. Purely amazing together with building a new life in Billie’s first year.

      I have been reading your incredible content on your website and have a question for you. I am now 15 months post-partum (16 months at the end of December) and would love to have some of your meals delivered. Would this work? (For Jan/Feb next year) I am happy to do the organizing of having the meals dropped of myself.

      I have been feeling fatigue, colds, and some digestive ups and downs and would love to get some incredibly nourishing food delivered. I have tried clicking on the ‘buy the book’ tab but it doesn’t take me to the purchase of the book. Is the book already for sale?

      Thanks lovely lady
      Much love to you and wishing you a smooth and gentle end of this calendar year.
      Gerrie

        Hi Gerrie,

        Thanks for reaching out and thank you for your kind words!

        The book will be available for sale from this week. I noticed you signed up to our virtual village so you will get an email as soon as they become available.

        The recipe cards are to be handed out to friends and family so they can prepare the meals for you. They have been designed to nourish and nudities a new mama but will be equally nourishing for a postpartum mama.

        I will become a qualified postpartum nutrition consultant early 2021 and would be happy to sit down with you and help tackle the fatigue, digestive issues and strengthen your immune system!

        They are definitely symptoms of a depleted mama. I’ll give you a call after Christmas and we can have a chat and get you feeling great again.

        Have a beautiful Christmas, Leila xx
