Is there actually anything more soothing than a cup of tea? Anything more comforting than a couple of slices of toast?

Is this peculiarly English delight in tea echoed globally I wonder? And if not, why not?

I often say to my clients that the best bit about post birth is getting some tea and toast afterwards. The best cuppa you’ll ever have.
So many mums agree.

Tea and toast post birth speaks volumes about birth itself. The normalisation of the experience. The feeding of the athlete post exercise.
The post birth hug.

Perhaps we should be asking this as a question when researching our place of birth?
Will I get tea and toast after?
If they say no?… Well then, perhaps this is just not a mother friendly place and a home birth is best after all 😉

What did you have post birth? Tea & toast? Champagne? Lucozade? A bucket??
