Founder's Story
Like most first-time moms, I prepared everything for baby’s arrival and nothing for my own postpartum recovery. It wasn’t until I was heading home from the hospital after giving birth to my son that I realized I, too, needed recovery products for my own healing body.
My husband and I stopped at a department store and went to the pharmacy section looking for items that mimicked the cheap supplies the hospital had given me. The product selection was limited. I realized that better versions of these products could be found online but it was too late to research and order them. I needed them all at once.
I knew there had to be a better way to get postpartum care products to new moms. And like that, the idea for Mombox was born.
