Earth Mama Organic Perineal Balm | Naturally Cooling Herbal Salve for Pregnancy and Postpartum Relief with Witch Hazel & Calendula, Feminine Care Essentials, No Benzocaine or Butane, 2-Fluid Ounce

This should be on every expectant moms' shopping list!This was a splurge I made for postpartum with my third child. I wish I bought this with my first! It is amazing! It is not a numbing spray, but gives a cool and refreshing feeling. The bottle can be held in any direction (upright, upside down, etc) and still spray perfectly. I feel like it does help the healing process and soothes.You can also use it for other things like a toner afterwards. I like that I can find alternative uses for it since I doubt I will go through the whole bottle.

This is a must-have for after birth! I bought it before my first birth, but ended up having a csection and didn’t use it. However, when my baby got bad diaper rash I started spraying this on her butt, along with adding diaper rash cream. It helped to clear it up and helped with the pain/burning of the rash. With my 2nd pregnancy, I got hemorrhoids (which I didn’t even know what it was?!) and it helped with the itching and took down the vein swelling to help them go away. After this natural birth (VBAC), I used it once all the cooling pads were used up. When you spray, it’s nice and cooling - don’t spray too much or it will drip. I kind of have to hover and spray but the newer bottles spray at any angle (unlike my first bottle) and that’s so helpful when you can’t move bc your butt is sore. I love the ingredients and how it’s all natural. The smell is so refreshing with cucumber 🥒 and lavender and peppermint. My hemorrhoids lasted after I needed this for my sore and torn vagina so I kept using it until they went away. The Tucks pads are recommended for hemorrhoids but they are just witch hazel and since this has witch hazel as a main ingredient I used it instead and think it worked better! I used about a bottles worth over the course of 6-ish weeks healing and will keep some on hand for the next round of diaper rashes to come. I wouldn’t say there is instant relief - it is cooling but not an intense cool, but the ingredients definitely help your body to heal naturally over time (so there isn’t quite as much instant or immediate pain relief as you might like). I never tried putting it in the freezer like they recommend but I definitely think that would intensify the cooling and relief.

This is the best for postpartum. It is so soothing & really helps! The spray is amazing immediately when coming home and the balm is good after you’ve healed a bit and/or your stitches are gone. I was gifted this and I’m so glad I was because it saved me after I had my first. I didn’t even use the whole jar of the balm!

Was excited this came in the mail so i could prep for delivery day only to see it was not packaged and open.......

Nice refreshing spray and scent (cucumbers). However, it does nothing to stop the itching or burning from stitches. The bottle says it can be used as a facial mist and I think it would be more suited for that. I should have stuck with dermoplast or something along those lines.

The only spray I have used for both of my births aftercare. Smells good, easy to use, feels refreshing and I believe it helped me heal quicker. 10/10!

After you give birth, you go through a ton of things that you don't expect to go through. Besides caring for a new life, you are recovering from labor. I had a really rough labor and had some tears...ouch! This product brought some temporary relief from the pain I was experiencing down there. I love that it's natural and simple. I originally used the numbing spray from the hospital and witch hazel pads because I was in A LOT of pain for weeeeks, but then decided to go the more natural route (with the spray) since I had to keep reapplying for relief.

This was absolutely amazing post-partum; I gift it to every pregnant woman I know! It’s so soothing and I never ran out during my recovery using just the one set
