This is an herbal combination used to help soothe and calm the perineal area after birth, helps keep swelling to a minimum (especially if the frozen pad method is used), helps the speed the recovery process, and helps to keep the area healthy and sanitary.
This is one of Herb Lore's most popular products and winner of the Essential Postpartum Products for Mama and Baby 2015 award. Clients swear by this product!
Pam (our herbalist and company founder) had a third-degree tear (to the rectum, which rarely ever happens but these kinds of weird things are how she learned what works!). She used the frozen pads and peri bottle. She had NO pain whatsoever from her many stitches - she said she couldn't feel any discomfort at all, ever - and her midwife was amazed at the lack of swelling and speed of healing for her. All of this was directly due to the Postpartum Sitz Bath Herbs.
Her experience with the herbs is common - it has become one of Herb Lore's most popular items! It is a "must have" for any birthing mom!

I just wanted to thank you for the WONDERFUL soothing Postpartum Sitz Bath Herbs! I had surgery (enterocele/rectocele repair) a week ago. Not only that, I ended up with a bladder infection due to the Foley catheter. I came home sore, tearful, and incontinent. Then came the yeast infection. I ended up with 11 prescriptions. Then I bought the Postpartum Sitz Bath Herbs and I've already made my third batch. Aaaahhhhh! I'm taking sitz baths and using a peri bottle to squirt the herbs onto the sore area. I'm still tender, however I am SO much more comfortable! I wish I had the herbs a week earlier! I'm going to let my surgeon know! Every woman having vaginal surgery should know that these herbs aren't just for postpartum! Thanks again! E.N.
After giving birth to three petite little girls, my husband and I decided that for our next birth, we would go "natural" before and hopefully after the birth. Well, I gave birth to a very healthy baby boy, weighing 8 pounds! The birth was an easy feat without drugs, but afterwards was another story! I had always taken my Vicodin after the birth of my girls (I was not breastfeeding), but this time I was nursing and did not want to take a narcotic. My doula and midwife suggested I check out herbs available to me, and so I contacted Herb Lore. They took much time to suggest a wonderful remedy for me – Postpartum Sitz Bath Herbs. But instead of taking a sitz bath with them, I followed the instructions for making a "tea" of the herbs and using sanitary pads to soak up some of the brew. I then froze the pads and wore them throughout the day and night. (Complete instructions are on the product label.) It was a WONDERFUL relief. I took no narcotics and unlike medication, I could use the pads as much as needed. I wish I had known about this technique after I had my girls! Timmy was my biggest baby, most pleasant birth, and easiest recovery (thanks to Herb Lore's herbs!!!). J.Y.
I am a huge advocate for Herb Lore and their products. They are so easy to talk to, knowledgeable and they make sure my products get shipped right away. The herbs I used were instrumental in my postpartum recovery. I used the Postpartum Sitz Bath Herbs after all three deliveries – they helped my stitches feel more comfortable and heal faster. I also love Herb Lore's Pregnancy Tea. I would make a large batch to last a couple of days and drink it all throughout the day. It was comforting to know the ingredients were helping the baby and also preparing my body to give birth. M.G.
