Freshly Moms: Affiliate Review
As we have mentioned in previous posts recently, we are celebrating the New Year New Parent in 2020. This means a variety of things, one of which is our word of the year, investing, which you can read a little more about here. Part of this is investing in our new affiliates which includes Freshly Moms.
A Brief Background
“Freshly Moms was found when Shruti noticed a lack of clean eating options for new moms during her own postpartum recovery. All she could find was lactation cookies and bars which did little beyond increasing the milk quantity. Being from a culture where a new mother's recovery is a primary focus, she got obsessed with spreading awareness about the importance of nourishing a new mother.
She researched several cultures where mothers are nourished and rested for first six weeks after childbirth and studied the various foods that are given to the mother during this phase. Being a nutritionist, she then verified and established the benefits of each of these foods and selected the most nutrient dense super ingredients from them. To make it convenient for new moms to nourish themselves, she created delicious snacks and teas designed specifically for them, made with the cleanest organic ingredients available.”
Their focus is to educate, nourish, and empower new parents through pregnancy and postpartum, which we were happy to get behind.
In December we sent a few of our Doulas of Capitol Hill clients, past and present, a few samples of what they offer. Here’s what they had to say.
What do you think about the taste and nutrition and a general feedback on the whole product?
Very good! Did not taste like a pregnancy specific product, they were flavors I’d enjoy even if I wasn’t pregnant. - Rachel O.
On the whole, I thought the products were really great and was happy with the ingredients & taste. I ended up preferring the granola as it seemed to satiate me more – with the [foxnut] pops I felt like I could eat 5 bags and never be full. - Julia N.
Were you aware of the benefits of the ingredients used in these products during postpartum and breastfeeding?
Prior to receiving these products I was not aware of the benefits of these
ingredients during postpartum and breastfeeding. - Koryn S.
I was aware of some of the benefits of the ingredients used in these snacks with the exception of foxnuts. It was cool to learn about a new superfood that is loaded with protein, fiber, and antioxidants. - Julia N.
Would you recommend these products to other new moms?
I would absolutely recommend these products to new moms! As a new mom you are constantly questioning if you are doing the right thing, with these products I knew I was! - Koryn S.
Yes. Having these ingredients already prepared in a delicious way with my pregnancy needs in mind, without me having to put in extra effort was priceless! Thanks again Freshly Moms. - Julia N.
