How it all began
I was pregnant with my 2nd baby in 2009 when my midwife from Yale School of Medicine introduced me to the medicinal qualities of herbs for postpartum recovery. I was intrigued, if a bit amused, that something so mild and gentle as topical herbs could make a difference in my recovery.
Soon thereafter, I birthed my 9 lb.7 oz baby and assumed I would be in for another "normal" (healthy but difficult) recovery.
Once I experienced my midwife's frozen herbal "padsicles", I was struct by how quickly I healed and how awesomely soothing they were. It was self-care in the truest sense, during a time when I was so intently focused on caring for others. There was no doubt about it: Despite that I had had a slightly longer birth and a bigger baby the second time around, this recovery was immeasurably easier than my first.
How come I hadn't heard of this before? Being an expert and published professional in the field of prenatal and postpartum women's health, that said a lot. There is so much more we can be doing for moms.
I set off to learn more and in time, Postpartum Soothe™ was born: the perfected blend of healing herbs for a healthier, easier and more comfortable recovery.
