Information from the brandProduct description
Product code: 31330809
This soak from My Expert Midwife is a post-birth recovery essential for your first few baths after birth to clean, soothe and help maintain the condition of the perineum, as well as calm aching muscles and aid recovery. Can also be used following a caesarean section.
This 100% naturally derived, Midwife-developed soak is made with premium Epsom salts, which instantly disperse in warm bath water, blended with essential oils of tea tree and calendula, for their anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties, and of bergamot, which aids relaxation. It also contains added arnica to help bruising and swelling.
Soak for Bits is a hospital bag essential or perfect as a gift from one mum to another.
Chances are you’ll be sore after childbirth because of stretching, bruising and swelling, even if you don’t sustain a tear or episiotomy. It can also be used to help relieve soreness after a caesarean section (after the dressing is removed and the wound is undergoing the normal healing process). This midwife developed bath soak is ideal for that first bath, and to use as a soak for the first few weeks after childbirth, to help aid recovery. It contains premium Epsom salts to relax tired muscles, tea tree and calendula for their anti-inflammatory properties, bergamot to soothe and relax and arnica to help reduce bruising.
Key Features:
- Made with 100% naturally derived ingredients
- Epsom salts that will quickly disperse into warm bath water, with no gritty residue
- Perfect to use as part of your postpartum recovery plan, specially used alongside Spritz for Bits
- This large 750g bag ensures you have enough for your daily postnatal recovery bath for 7-10 days
