        Our family just welcomed our tenth baby a week ago, and my midwife prepared a wonderful herbal bath for me including comfrey, yarrow leaves and flowers, shepherd’s purse, red raspberry, and sea salt.  I have never had such a fast recovery in my life!  I only wish I had known about the healing benefits of these herbs when I first started having children.  Highly recommend to other recently delivered mamas!

          THose are all good choices for a post-partum sitz. :0)

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
