Hailee Steinfeld talked about postpartum healing after welcoming her first baby with Josh Allen.

As per her latest note to fans, the Bumblebee star shared intimate thoughts on life with her newborn, describing the experience as deeply meaningful.

In her newest Substack writing, the American actress admitted that she was told to focus on warm meals after childbirth to ease the process of digestion and to better absorb nutrients, which is in accordance with Ayurvedic principles.

Moreover, she mentioned, "Knowing this, my mom made me this amazing albondigas soup the other day. It's one of those rare soups that looks as good as it tastes."

Additionally, she noted, "I'm halfway through this book, and every word has resonated. I'm still in this early period and need to remember to be super gentle with myself in every way — physically, mentally, nutritionally, spiritually, all of it."

It is pertinent to mention that Steinfeld, who gave birth to a baby girl on April 2, is also gradually returning to fitness while relying on her mother’s support.
