Due to an injury, please be aware that Pam Caldwell will be in the office only on a very limited basis for several months while she recovers.  During her absence, please visit the following areas, as they likely have all the answers to your questions and problems:

- Articles section - this is a gold mine of information.
- Ordering - either put your issue into the search engine box or use the drop down menu for specific categories and herbs for those categories.
- Read the rest of this page. 

Everything is short and easy to read.

If you still don't find the answer to your question, you may call the office or email.  Staff is on hand and will notify Pam and pass along anything that requires her specialized attention. 

If you would like a reading or consultation with Pam, contact us and we will put you on the list. You'll be contacted once she's able to do them and an appointment scheduled.  Be sure to include your name, telephone number, email address, and the nature of your consultation (reading, fertility, PMS, menopause, etc). 

All orders will continue to be processed and shipped in our usual quick time. 

Thank you for your understanding.

What do I need to have on hand for my birth and immediate postpartum?

After Pain Relief Tincture (this one is also a must for moms having their second or subsequent babies.)
Healing Salve (apply to baby's bottom at each diaper change to provide easy and effortless removal of baby's sticky first poops (meconium). 

What do I need to have for my milk production?

Nursing Tea or Nursing Tincture (scroll past the Goat's Rue entry.  This is a very effective and gentle product to help increase milk production.  Many mothers of twins use this and nothing else and make plenty of breastmilk for both babies.  This product is recommended to try first, especially with newborns, as it is very gentle on baby's tummy while being very effective.  The tincture is the most convenient way of using this product, as nothing needs to be prepared by you.)
Goat's Rue (one of the best herbs for increasing breastmilk production.  Best herb for women who have trouble with production right from the start.)
Fenugreek (scroll down past the Fennel entries.  Fenugreek is also one of the best herbs for increasing milk production.  It works very well, but it must be used with consistency for best results.  See info here for detailed info on this herb and how to use it correctly.)
Click here for an easy-to-read, yet indepth and informative article on how to increase your breastmilk production.

What do I use if I'm making too much milk or need to dry up my production?

Sage (click here for more info)

Plugged ducts?  Mastitis?

Poke Root (read detailed info here.  Scroll to Plugged Ducts & Mastitis sections.)

What do I need to have on hand for my baby?

Healing Salve (helps with removal of sticky meconium plus it helps heal diaper rash in record time.  Keep a large jar by your changing table and a small one in your diaper bag.)
Goldenseal Powder (helps heal and dry up the cord stump in days rather than weeks.  Use the powder for this. )
Tummy Tea or Tummy Tincture (mom takes this and it passes to the baby to help with baby's gas, indigestion, colic or reflux.  Click here for more info on how to help your baby's tummy.)

Economic times are tough.  Consider this:

Herbs are affordable and they work. 

1) Herbs can help to keep you healthy.
This can save you money by helping to avoid lost time at work (or the difficulty of being a sick parent at home trying to take care of little ones) and the costs of getting well.  Save yourself money by keeping yourself healthy!
Herbs for the Cold & Flu Season

2)  Baby formula is expensive! 
A month's worth of herbs to increase your breastmilk production is much cheaper than a month's worth of formula, even when purchased from a big box discount store (not to mention that breastmilk is by far much healthier for your baby).  If you have a choice, do your wallet and your baby a favor.
