    The idea of going home just hours after a delivery is SO appealing to me!!
    I've had two hospital births, and I just couldn't wait to be back at home where everything is quiet and comfortable.

    I'm totally going to make that tea for my labor, but add date syrup instead of honey. Some research has suggested dates not only help with labor, but date syrup after birth helped moms avoid excessive bleeding.

    I have to do inductions with epidurals for several different medical issues for all of my babies(I'm just glad I can avoid a C-section) but these tips are still so so useful. Or at least, some of them. Even though I know I'm heading into an induction with an epidural I've started drinking the red Raspberry Leaf Tea .. I am ALWAYS low on iron and with my first I was SOOOOO low. This time they checked and my iron was NORMAL. Wow.

    • @CajunStork

      Hi Charlotte!
      1- olive oil would work in place of coconut oil. Be sure it’s unopened when you first use it.
      2- I have a link to the postpartum belt in the description below. BuyBuy baby may sell them as well if you have one in your area
