My Fourth Trimester PlanSign in

Your support system, planned before you need it

You don't have to figure out postpartum support when you're already exhausted.

Build your personalized first-month support plan with clear responsibilities, ready-to-send help requests, visitor boundaries, and a backup plan.

How it works

  1. 1

    Notice your needs

    Walk through meals, rest, errands, visitors and more — at your pace.

  2. 2

    Name your people

    Add helpers, assign tasks and backups, and write kind, specific requests.

  3. 3

    Keep it close

    Print your plan, share the handoff summary, and keep the nighttime card on your phone.

What you'll finish with

A peek at a finished plan

Sample data for a fictional family.

Week 1 · Meals

Primary: Dana (sister)

Backup: Marcus (neighbor)

Mon/Wed/Fri drop-off at 5pm. Leave at the door, text when here.

Ready-to-send

"Hi Priya! Things are a bit full here, and you came to mind. Would you be able to pick up a few groceries Thursday afternoon? Just reply yes, no, or suggest another time — any answer is completely okay."

Visitor boundaries

  • Visits by invitation only
  • Text first
  • Visits around 30 minutes

Who it's for

Expecting parents who want to prepare but feel overwhelmed by the logistics — or uneasy asking for help. Solo parents, partnered parents, adoptive parents, and anyone with a small or still-forming support network.
