What are the Ingredients?

Afterbirth Drops is a 100% herbal formula and contains the following ingredients in therapeutic dosage: Black Cohosh, Cramp bark, Fennel, Pasque flower.

• Black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) has been used for thousands of years by Native Americans - and some forms of the herb have also been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It has become more well known in the Western World through research on its supportive effect on hormone functioning and support of the female reproductive system. (Liske E. "Therapeutic efficacy and safety of Cimicifuga racemosa for gynecologic disorders". Adv Ther. 1998 Jan-Feb;15(1):45-53. Review.) Frei-Kleiner, S., Schaffner, W., Rahlfs, V. W., Bodmer, Ch, and Birkhauser, M. "Cimicifuga racemosa dried ethanolic extract in menopausal disorders: a double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial." Maturitas 8-16-2005;51(4):397-404. Black Cohosh can also help promote soothed nerves and support a state of relaxation.
• Cramp Bark (Viburnum prunifolium) supports relaxation and helps to address common nervous tension. It has also been researched for its effects on the uterus and the female reproductive system. (Baldini L, Brambilla G, Parodi S. "Research on the uterine action of Viburnum prunifolium". Arch Ital Sci Farmacol. 1964 Jan;14:55-63).
• Pasque Flower (Pulsatilla vulgaris) is widely used to help lessen common nervous tension - particularly useful during childbirth! Pasque Flower also supports stable mood and feelings of well-being - important after childbirth. It has also been used as a uterotonic - supporting a healthy uterus!
• Fennel Seeds (Foeniculum vulgare) have been used traditionally to 'settle and calm' the digestive system - but can also support the body in its natural task of producing breast-milk. Furthermore, this herb also supports healthy digestion in babies. (Alexandrovich, I., Rakovitskaya, O., Kolmo, E., Sidorova, T., and Shushunov, S. "The effect of fennel (Foeniculum Vulgare) seed oil emulsion in infantile colic: a randomized, placebo-controlled study." Altern.Ther.Health Med. 2003;9(4):58-61).

More Information

The time immediately following your baby's birth, even before the placenta is delivered, is a crucial period for bonding. You will want to see and cuddle your new little one as much as possible.

Most routine newborn procedures can be done without taking your baby away, so don't allow him/her to be separated from you unless it is medically necessary.

Procedures such as weighing and eye drops can be delayed allowing you and your partner to relax and bond with the newest little addition to your family!

Expect to feel:

• Contractions that are very manageable
• Joy, relief, and a mixture of emotions

What Your Partner Can Do:

• Hold the baby and you
• Remind you of relaxation and breathing techniques.

Some women save the placenta - perhaps ask your practitioner to give you a quick tour of this amazing organ that nourished your baby for so long. In a homebirth it may be your responsibility to dispose of the placenta, so be sure to ask! For some families planting the placenta is a ritual.

• Dig a deep hole, at least 16 inches deep
• Bury the placenta

Wait at least a year before planting a tree or anything over it (the soil will be too rich and kill the plant). Planting a tree over the placenta on baby's first birthday for example, is a wonderful and special ritual!

AfterBirth Drops are manufactured according to the highest pharmaceutical standards, individual ingredients are well-researched, natural, safe and effective.
