A note from me
If you’re reading this, you’ve probably smiled through something this week that you really wanted to say out loud. Me too.
None of it is dramatic. You just had a baby, and protecting your baby (and yourself) is your job right now.
You’re not too much.
Inside
Seven tools
The non-negotiables
Nine rules for every single person who comes near the baby.
The family visit guide
Seventeen house rules, plus the things you can say.
The friendship guide
What a new mom needs from her friends, and the one text every new mom needs.
Stranger scripts
Short scripts for the stroller, the grocery store and the stranger who wants to touch her.
Copy and paste texts
Eight texts you can send as they are, or tweak and send.
The “what actually helps” checklist
Do this, skip this. Specific beats “let me know if you need anything.”
Printable fridge sign
Print it, stick it up, say nothing.
Free, and yours to share.
Take what you need and send the rest to someone who does.

The exact words
Saying no to a visit
We’re laying low this week to rest and recover. Not personal at all! I’ll reach out when we’re ready for visitors.
The kissing and sick rule
Quick heads up before you come: we’re doing no kisses on the baby, and if anyone’s feeling even a little sick, we’ll reschedule. Thank you for understanding!
Asking a friend for help
Honestly? A coffee on the porch, no visit needed, would make my whole week.
How to use it
Three small things
Screenshot the page you need
You don’t have to read it all. Grab the one that fits this week.
Send it to the person who needs to read it
My name is all over it, so let them be mad at me instead of you.
Print the fridge sign
Stick it up and say nothing at all.
One last thing, mama.
Setting a boundary isn’t being dramatic. It’s you doing your job.
