Let customers speak for us
from 56 reviewsI am halfway through 30 days of these delicious soups and have found them absolutely nourishing. My partner has been making them for me daily and likes how easy they are to prepare. I’m so glad I decided to purchase these for my postpartum recovery. I also feel my recovery has been a lot better and quicker second time around.
Fresh herbs, easy to prepare..
Amazing products. I have been looking for confinement soups that are affordable and good quality. This meets both criteria.
朋友推薦我試試 Golden Month 的月子餐,沒想到真的這麼好吃!食材新鮮、調味適中,而且不油不膩,非常適合產後身體調養。每天打開便當都像在拆禮物,每一餐都有驚喜,讓我在帶寶寶的同時也能吃得開心又安心。這是給自己的最好的投資,我會推薦給每一位準媽媽。
Honestly, the best thing I bought during my recovery. It was so simple. No stress figuring out what herbs to buy. Good value compared to other alternatives on the market.
I really appreciated how easy the 30 day soup pack made my postpartum meals. The herbs were already portioned, so I just added meat and let it simmer. no stress, even on the most sleep-deprived days.
The soups were deeply nourishing and encouraged me to eat better overall. I found myself reaching for more veggies and protein instead of processed snacks. It’s a great way to stay on track with recovery and nutrition without spending hours in the kitchen

Guided by the 3 Stages of Recovery
-
Stage 1: Release & Repair (清,催)
The first days after birth are about gentle recovery. This stage focuses on clearing lochia, supporting uterine repair and encouraging milk flow. Warmth and nourishment help your body begin its path back to balance.
-
Stage 2: Regulate & Rebalance (调)
As your body stabilises, the focus shifts to harmonising digestion and improving nutrient absorption. This stage helps replenish Qi and blood while restoring steady energy through balanced nourishment.
-
Stage 3: Rebuild & Revitalise (补,养)
The final stage consolidates vitality for the long term. By nourishing the liver and kidneys, improving circulation and building reserves, this phase supports deeper renewal and lasting recovery.
Suitable for All Mums
C-Section or Vaginal Birth
Gentle, nourishing blends created to support recovery after both vaginal and C-section births. For surgical healing, simply omit rice wine in the first week — the soups remain just as restorative.
Breastfeeding Mums
Balanced with herbs traditionally chosen to support lactation and replenish energy, such as rice paper pith, peanuts and red dates. Each bowl is designed to comfort, sustain and complement the breastfeeding journey.
First-Time or Seasoned Mums
Whether you’re navigating recovery for the first time or caring for little ones alongside a new baby, our soups take the guesswork out of confinement and provide consistent, nourishing support.
Why Confinement Care Matters
Childbirth is a powerful event that leaves the body open, depleted, and vulnerable, but also uniquely receptive to nourishment and restoration. The way a mother cares for herself in these first 30 days is believed to shape not only her recovery now, but her wellbeing for years to come.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the soups ready to consume?
Our soups are not pre-cooked. Each pack contains a measured blend of premium dried herbs. To enjoy the full benefits, the dried herbs need to be simmered at home following our simple preparation instructions.
The result? A fresh, nourishing soup made right in your own kitchen. No preservatives, no additives, just real ingredients and traditional care.
How easy is it to prepare the soups?
Very easy! All you need to do is add water, the herbs provided, and (if you wish) meat and rice wine. This takes around 5 minutes.
Then simmer the soup on the stove for about an hour. Or just 20 minutes in a pressure cooker.
That’s it. No complicated steps, just nourishing soup made simply at home.
Are your soups breastfeeding friendly?
Yes, our soups are designed with breastfeeding mums in mind. They include ingredients traditionally used in Chinese herbal cooking to support nourishment during lactation.
These ingredients, such as rice paper pith, peanuts and red dates, have historically been selected to help replenish energy, support general wellbeing and are commonly included in postpartum diets.
However, every body is different - we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider if you have specific concerns around breastfeeding or dietary needs.
Are your soups suitable for C-section recovery?
Yes, our soups are safe to consume after both vaginal and C-section births. Each blend is made from natural, premium grade herbs and is designed to be gentle and nourishing during your recovery.
However, we recommend omitting rice wine for at least the first 7 days after a C-section. In Traditional Chinese practices, alcohol is considered too stimulating for fresh surgical wounds. You can still enjoy the soup without wine - it won't affect the herbal benefits.
As always, if you have specific medical conditions or are taking medications, please consult your healthcare provider.
Are your soups suitable for vegetarians?
Yes, our soup packages are completely vegetarian. They’re made with 100% plant-based herbs and contain no garlic or onion. You don’t need to add meat when preparing them, though the flavour will naturally be lighter and more herbal.
For a richer, more balanced taste, we recommend cooking the soup with vegetable stock and adding ingredients like mushrooms, tofu, carrots, corn, or any other vegetables or proteins you enjoy.
When should I start drinking the confinement herbal soups?
You can start as early as the day after giving birth, but there’s no need to rush. Many mums begin once they’ve returned home from hospital and settled in.
Whether you start right away or a few days later, you’ll still enjoy the full nourishing benefits of the soups throughout your recovery.
How do I choose the right soup package for me?
We offer soup packs for 10, 20 and 30 days, so you can choose what best suits your recovery needs, budget and lifestyle.
- 10-day pack – Great as a trial or short-term support
- 20-day pack – A balanced option if you're easing into confinement care
- 30-day pack – ⭐ Our most popular choice, designed to support you through a full traditional confinement period
For most mums, we recommend the 30-day pack. It aligns with the traditional 30-day recovery and provides a complete journey through all three stages of postpartum healing.
Are there any allergens in your soup?
Contain peanuts, tree nuts (walnut), and gluten (barley). Packed in a facility that also handles milk, egg, soy, sesame, seafood, other tree nuts, and gluten-containing cereals.
All ingredients are clearly listed on each soup label. While our dried herb packs themselves do not contain dairy, shellfish, or animal products, meat is often added during cooking but is optional.
How to store the soup packs?
To maintain the freshness and quality of your premium herbal products, please store them with care:
- Keep herbal packs in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight, heat, or humidity
- For best results, you may also store them in the refrigerator
- Avoid exposure to moisture or high temperatures, which may affect the herbs’ potency
The shelf life is up to 1 year.
