Forty days of Chinese confinement, gently paced. Today's dish, this week's shopping list for your partner, and a line from po po each morning. Chinese postpartum care. Yue is a 40-day companion for zuo yue zi (坐月子), built for Chinese-heritage mothers living far from their culture. It gives you the structure your mother or grandmother would have given you, in a kitchen that is nothing like theirs. FOUR PHASES, FORTY DAYS Confinement is not one long month of the same food. Yue follows the traditional four-phase progression: Renew, Restore, Build, Nourish. Each day shows you what is traditionally eaten at that stage, and why. RECIPES YOU CAN ACTUALLY COOK HERE Ginger vinegar pig trotter. Sesame oil chicken. Red date and longan tea. Every recipe carries its Chinese name, its story, and a method someone can follow while you rest. A SHOPPING LIST YOUR PARTNER CAN USE Yue turns the week's recipes into one list, sorted by shop, with prices from SeeWoo, Wing Yip and Ocado in the UK, and Wah Nam Hong and Albert Heijn in the Netherlands. Send it to your partner on WhatsApp. They will know exactly what to buy and where. MUM'S SUITCASE If your mother or mother-in-law is flying in, Yue builds her a packing list in Chinese. Which herbs and dry goods are worth the suitcase space, how much they weigh against her baggage allowance, and clear guidance on what EU customs does not permit. She opens one link. No app, no account. WHAT YOUR ELDER WOULD SAY A short piece of daily wisdom in Mandarin with English translation. The reassurance that usually comes from the woman sitting beside you. ADAPTED TO YOUR BIRTH Caesarean and vaginal birth follow different timings in traditional practice. Yue adjusts your plan accordingly. YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR PHONE No account. No cloud sync. No sharing with anyone. HOW IT WORKS Your first week is free. After that, a one-time purchase unlocks all forty days. No subscription, ever. Yue shares cultural and culinary traditions. It is not medical advice and does not diagnose, treat, or prevent any condition. Always speak to your midwife, GP, obstetrician, or a qualified practitioner about your recovery, your diet, and any herbs you are considering, particularly while breastfeeding or recovering from surgery. Currently in English and Simplified Chinese, with recipes from Cantonese tradition. More traditions coming.
