After my own difficult postpartum experience โ€” including sepsis, 11 days in hospital, and years of symptoms I couldn't make sense of โ€” I began researching the nervous system, chronic stress and the gut-brain connection.

That research helped me understand my own experience in a completely different way.

"This quiz is based on the questions I wish someone had helped me ask in my first year of motherhood."

This isn't about diagnosing you. It's about helping you explore the physical patterns that may be contributing to how you're feeling โ€” alongside the other forms of support you may already have.

Answer honestly โ€” there are no right or wrong answers.

Choose the option that feels most true for you right now. Each question appears after you answer the previous one.

1How long after birth did you start feeling "off"?
2Which feeling shows up most in your body lately?
3What happens when things get quiet?
4How would you describe your energy most days?
5How has your focus or memory been since birth?
6How does your body settle at night?
7How does stress feel in your body right now?
8How is your digestion lately?
9When your child melts down, what happens in your body?
10Do you often feel like you need to please others or avoid conflict?
