I came across this brand when pregnant and thinking about how best to support myself during postpartum. The background of the company stood out from other competitors because of it's roots in science and specifically targeting recovery with nutrient-dense food, intentional dishes. I opted for the one-day trial first to get a feel for the meals and was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion sizes, packaging, attention to detail and taste. Now that I'm two-weeks postpartum I am ordering meals about twice a month (lunch and dinners mostly) to help me stay nourished and as stress-free as possible with a newborn. I hope this brand continues to grow and be funded to reach its potential. There's such a lack of resources and care for women postpartum—a time when most are expected to do it all (work, mother, keep a house, be a spouse, etc.) Lastly, I registered for Chiyo giftcards on my baby registry and marked the item as "most wanted" and fortunately family, friends, and coworkers have gifted me enough gift cards to sustain a couple orders. It's the best gift vs. baby items. I will say their website/ordering is sometimes a little challenging to navigate, I often have to chat with a rep to apply a giftcard or double check status/delivery date of orders. I think those are small tech, growing pains though.
