Are you a new or expecting mom? If so, this post is for YOU! I am sharing my postpartum list that helped so much in my healing journey!
Five months in my PP journey, and I am still healing my body. I want to be transparent about the healing journey because the idea that you should bounce back is just completely insane. Your body was not made to bounce back, but to bounce forward. It’s so important to give yourself grace, rest, and nourishment so that the healing process works with you and not against you.
These six items were my saving grace, and they truly made the process easier for me. All of these can be found on Amazon, and I highly recommend them for expecting mamas!
Frida Mom– This kit has everything you need it. Instead of adding things individually this kit has it all for you!
Earth Mama Sits Bath– That first bath is the best, trust me. Add this to your bath and it will help soothe the area. It is filled with witch hazel, yarrow, plantain, calendula, and herbs.
Perineal bottles- Extras are a must. Have them ready to go in your bathroom. These are so helpful
After Ease– This is used for those after-birth contractions. It helps calm, support, and relax the body after birth.
Mesh Underwear- get plenty! These can be thrown away after a day of use, so having enough on hand! These are quite the fashion statement, and I swear your hubby will love them, too! 😉
Ice Packs– you’ll thank me later. Don’t skip these. They help a ton, and I promise you will need them!
Remember all that your body did for you these last nine months. You are strong, and your body is incredible. This postpartum journey is only a phase.
