Inside Hesta House: How to Feed Yourself When You’ve Just Had a Baby

​When you’ve just had a baby, feeding yourself can quickly become an afterthought.

​Join cook and food writer Melissa Hemsley, alongside a Hesta dietitian, for an intimate and practical conversation about nourishing yourself after birth, especially when time, energy and headspace are in short supply.

​We’ll talk about what your body needs as it recovers, from protein, iron and hydration to keeping your energy steady, alongside the realities of actually making that happen with a new baby.

​Think: easy things to have in the fridge or freezer, food you can manage on the busiest days, what to ask friends and family to make for you, and simple ways to look after yourself without adding another thing to your to-do list.

​There’ll be plenty of time to ask questions, share experiences and eat something delicious together. You’ll also leave with a collection of Melissa’s recipes and practical ideas to make feeding yourself a little easier at home.

​This session is especially relevant if you’re pregnant or in the first six months after birth. Babies are very welcome.

​Places are limited to keep the session small and conversational.

​About Hesta House
For three days only, Hesta is taking over a London mews to create Hesta House: Motherhood, redesigned.  It’s a reimagining of what the world might look like if it were designed around mothers too.

​As part of your visit, you’ll also be invited to explore the House before or after your session, discovering spaces dedicated to health, food, movement, recovery, identity and early motherhood. Across the House there’ll be expert-led moments, practical ideas, carefully chosen products and a few useful things to take home with you.
