the weeks makes postpartum products and a big fuss about the first time after birth. Our sustainably produced hygiene and care line supports people after birth with lochia, birth injuries, scars and breastfeeding. And our brand new postpartum app not only prepares you for turbulent times, but is also a daily companion for eight weeks after the birth with expert knowledge, practical tips and useful exercises - and the right pinch of "everything is OK."

Our goal: to give people in the postpartum period the feeling that after giving birth they are not just mothers, but can also remain themselves - with all their needs, values, boundaries and attitudes.

the weeks provides people in the postpartum period with high-quality natural cosmetics, hygiene products and teas in organic quality that do not contain any chemical contamination from pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers.

the weeks postpartum products are sold through our online shop and are available in selected online shops and offline stores throughout Europe. We attach great importance to sustainable, socially acceptable and environmentally conscious production in Germany and the EU.

the weeks are self-financed and do not rely on venture capital or dependence on large investors or industry. This means we are free from unwanted influence and the pressure to become faster and bigger, and we can focus on the needs of our customers and our mission.

Our postpartum app prepares people for the postpartum period before giving birth and then accompanies them daily for eight weeks with practical tips, expert knowledge and initial exercises for recovery.

Dr. Lea Borgmann founded the weeks in Berlin in February 2021. The mother of one son studied public health and communications and most recently worked for the Robert Koch Institute on women's health issues.

For her own postpartum period, Lea was looking for organic products that didn't bring the full load of eco-charm and baby kitsch into her apartment - and in the midst of raised fingers and good advice, she could have used a reminder that her decisions are fine and that sh really is an OK mother.
