Birth Recovery Bath

A very dear baby was born last week. For her mother, I made satchets of postpartum herbal sitz bath. I just bought all the loose herbs and minerals, mixed them up, and portioned them out. This is supposed to promote the healing of affected tissues after childbirth.

  • 1 c. sea salt
  • 2 oz. lavender
  • 2 oz. plantain leaf
  • 2 oz. witch hazel (dry)
  • 2 oz. yarrow
  • 2 oz. calendula
  • 2 ox. chamomile


 I also tried to decorate a onesie. I just put masking tape on in a little geometric design, and painted over it with fabric paint. (Putting parchment paper in between layers of fabric, of course).

I liked how it turned out.
