Recipe for Anti Bleed Tea

First Time Mom Anti Bleed Tea

2 Tablespoons Shepherd Purse

1 Tablespoon Fennel Seeds

1 Broken Cinnamon Stick

Put all herbs in a big pot. Boil water seperately and pour boiling water (at least 5 cups) over the herbs. Let steep. (You may have to rewarm but do that with least heat possible. Leaf and seed herbs are not boiled).

Get your big mug ready before the baby is born.

Put 2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey in the cup with a spoon. Have a bendy straw ready! Put the tea strainer over the top of the cup. As soon as the baby is born have someone ready to get the cup of tea and straw. Make sure it's warm but not hot enough to burn your mouth. While drinking think "This tea will help the placenta come out smoothly, all in one piece."

Recipe for those who have had multiple babies

2 Heaping Tablespoons Cramp Bark

1 Cinnamon Stick about 4 inches long, broken in pieces

Place the ingredients in a pot with 2 litres of water and bring to a boil. Turn down heat and simmer on low boil for 1 hour. Barks need to be boiled in order to release their properties.

Strain the tea and drink like medicine whenever the cramps/afterpains are bothersome. Remember, the cramping is stopping you from bleeding too heavily so it is a good and healthy thing your body is doing .
