The First Six Weeks

A six-week postpartum check-in plan for new parents and partners handling nighttime care. BodyBuddy asks one daily question about basic needs, without tracking weight, calories, or steps. Five-minute walks begin only after clinician clearance and only on days the client says are possible.

or get coached through it

For the first six weeks after a baby, this gentle plan helps new parents and nighttime partners eat, rest, and move without adding pressure.

Six Week Rhythm

Choose your check-in hour on day one, then follow the same light rhythm for six weeks.

How It Works

This is support for basic needs, not a workout or diet.

One Daily Question

BodyBuddy asks once at your chosen hour and saves each answer for a clearer picture at the six-week visit.

Your Possible Days

After clearance, choose which days can include a five-minute walk, and BodyBuddy will ask only on those days.

No Tracking Numbers

This plan does not measure weight, calories, or steps, and those can belong to a different plan later.

Gentle Pattern Check

If answers seem dark for several days, BodyBuddy will name the pattern gently and ask who is nearby.

Before Walking

Wait For Clearance

Do not begin the five-minute walks until your clinician says they are safe.
