You can have a bath as soon as an hour after birth then repeat once or twice a day for 3-5 days. If you’ve had a c-section we recommend checking with your health visitor as to when you can start having baths, to ensure optimum healing.

Other Ways to Use:

Use the brewed infusion in a sitz bath (a portable shallow basin, which is inserted into your toilet basin, enabling you to soak your bottom) or in the bathtub for a therapeutic soak.

You can also use the warm infusion and a washcloth or cotton pads to create a warm compress for your perineum

Pour in your peri bottle for a soothing herbal rinse after using the toilet.
