Support that takes work off her plate

“Tell me if you need anything” still leaves her doing the noticing, planning, and assigning.

Own dinner through cleanup

Check preferences and budget once. Decide what is needed, prepare or arrange the meal, serve it, store leftovers, and clean the kitchen. A complete task removes a decision as well as a chore.

Choose one responsibility

• Meals and groceries.
• Laundry and essential household cleaning.
• Older-child routines and transport.
• Visitor messages and boundaries.
• Baby-care handoffs that respect the feeding plan.
• Appointment arrangements, with permission.

“I can handle dinner and cleanup. Is there anything important I should know before I start?”

Taking ownership does not mean overriding her preferences about feeding, her body, money, privacy, or the baby.
