Mom: "I've never had a baby hit their weight gain before!" How did she do it??

I had a mom come to me the other day who was pregnant with her 4th baby.  She had had a history of low breastmilk production with all 3 of her previous babies, and was worried she would experience the same thing this time around too.  We chatted a while about her situation and I suggested some herbs that she could take.  I also told her about how stress can negatively affect milk supply, and that she really needed to ask for help with household chores and taking care of the other kids.  Today I got this email from her:  

Thyroid Information

The thyroid is a gland located in the base of the neck. It secretes a hormone that controls metabolic activity in the body - it acts as the body's thermostat and regulator. It is one of the glands that make up the endocrine system, along with the adrenals, the ovaries, the pituitary and the thymus. When one gland becomes stressed or compromised, it can affect or "drag down" the others along with it.

Testimonial

From a midwife in OH - I had a birth on Friday and wanted to share my experience with you.  It was a long birth and the mother had bit of a tough time.  As soon as the baby was born, she began to bleed and looked like she wasn't going to stop.  I used the Hem Stopper Tincture I recently got from you, and it did the trick!  I used two doses, very close together (5 minutes maybe) and it worked very well.  Mom and baby are doing great!  I feel the Pregnancy Tea Plus that she was taking in her last several weeks of pregnancy helped as well.  She lost a decent amount of blood at the birth, but was up in the shower less than an hour after birth and was able to take a 20 minute shower.  I feel certain that the tea helped support her blood levels.  She also found great relief with using your After Birthing Ease Tincture too.  This being her second baby, she did have after pains this time around, but the After Birthing Ease Tincture really took care of it!  Thanks so much!  R.M., Midwife
