What are Nature's Birth Drops and how can they help you?
The birth of your new baby is the culmination of more than 9 months
of anticipation and preparation, yet many women fear the pain
and exhaustion associated with labor and childbirth. Childbirth
is a completely natural event and the most unique and revered
rite of passage that a woman will experience. At
BabyNature, we want to help you experience this special event with minimal
pain as well as a strong, calm and positive frame of mind.
With good mental and physical preparation, strong emotional support
during labor and the help of our natural remedies for childbirth,
the birth of your child can be one of the most wonderful and defining
experiences of your life.
Long before the advent of hospitals and modern allopathic medicine,
herbs were used to prepare the mother safely for birth and to
assist with the birth process itself. Knowledge of these herbs
was handed down from generation to generation and each community
had its own midwives who were skilled in the care of women during
pregnancy and childbirth.
Our herbal Birth Drops combine herbs especially chosen for their
beneficial and therapeutic effect on the mother in labor, facilitating
strong and productive uterine contractions and a shorter labor,
while assisting with natural pain relief and a sense of calm during
childbirth.
How
do I use Nature's Birth Drops?
BabyNature's herbal Birth Drops are used during labor. Simply
add approximately 1/4 cup of just-boiled water to 5-10 drops of
tincture and allow to cool. Drink as is or dilute further
in water or juice. May be repeated every hour if necessary.
Caution:
Not recommended for use during pregnancy, except during labor.
Use under supervision of your doctor, homeopath, naturopath, midwife
or doula.
What
are the ingredients in Nature's Birth Drops?
Birth Drops contain the following proven herbal ingredients:
Stachys officinalis (Wood betony)
is used for overcoming nervousness and is wonderfully calming
and soothing for women in labor. This herb also has pain-relieving
properties and is often used for migraines.
Blue
Cohosh
is also known as Papoose Root or Squaw Root due to its extensive
use by Native American women for childbirth. Blue Cohosh
is known to reduce pain during labor, at the same time improving
the efficiency of contractions to speed up the birth process.
This herb also alleviates anxiety.
Verbena officinalis
is more commonly called Vervain or Wild Hyssop and comes from
the Mediterranean region. It is well-known for its ability
to relax tension and stress and relieve mild depression. It is
used for painful menstruation and labor pains and will reduce
nervousness, fever and prevent excessive bleeding. Verbena
officinalis is also excellent for stimulating lactation, encouraging
successful breast-feeding.
Pulsatilla vulgaris (Pasque Flower)
is widely used for relief of nervous tension. It is also
highly effective in treating pain and exhaustion in women. Pasque
Flower’s analgesic properties are known to be particularly useful
during childbirth. It is also recommended for improving ineffectual
and weak contractions. Pasque Flower helps to improve mood and
is also useful for preventing post-natal depression.
Raspberry leaves (Rubus idaeus)
are known to be an excellent herbal supplement for pregnant women,
especially those who are nearing the very end of their pregnancy.
This ingredient improves the tone of the uterine ligaments and
facilitates labor and delivery. Raspberry leaves will also
prevent swelling and bleeding after the birth.
FAQ’s
How will I know when I’m really in labor?
There are a number of signs to indicate that you are in labor.
Although you should be aware of these signs, remember that many
women experience things differently and what may apply to you
may not apply to others. This is perfectly normal. Also remember
that 'false alarms' are common and many women mistake the normal
activity of late pregnancy as an indication that they are going
into labor. This is a time when your body is 'getting into gear'
and there may be one or two 'practise runs' before the real thing!
If you arrive at the hospital or birthing center certain that
you are in labor only to be sent home- don’t be embarrassed- it
happens all the time!
Some of the
signs of labor that you should look out for are:
-
Regular contractions which become more frequent, closer together
and increase in intensity. While the normal contractions of
late pregnancy (called 'Braxton Hicks' contractions) may often
be mistaken for the onset of labor, you can be relatively certain
that labor has begun if your contractions have been going for
about an hour, are evenly spaced about 5 minutes apart and last
for about a minute each.
-
A gush or constant trickle of fluid from the vagina indicating
that your waters have 'broken'.
-
Passing of
the mucus 'plug' that keeps the uterus closed during pregnancy.
This is sometimes called a 'show'.
-
A bloody or brownish mucus discharge accompanying the above
symptoms.
Don't
hesitate to call your midwife, doctor or birth assistant if you
are not sure. They will be able to reassure you and want to know
of any changes that occur -even if you are not yet in true labor. You
are also welcome to use our free

for more personalized service.
How do I know that these
herbs are safe for my baby?
BabyNature's Birth Drops have a
high safety profile. They contain
herbs which have been safely used for centuries in traditional
folk medicine to help women during childbirth. Despite the
safety of the herbs during this time, it should be remembered
that herbs are medicines and should therefore be used during childbirth
only under supervision of your doctor, midwife, doula or other
health professional.
What else can help?
-
Prepare yourself mentally, physically and spiritually for
the birth by reading books on childbirth, joining a support
group for pregnant women, speaking to mothers of children
or even your own mother or mother-in-law. Taking good
care of yourself in the form of a balanced diet, getting enough
rest, relieving stress, meditating and talking with your partner
about the future will be invaluable in preparing yourself
for labor, birth and parenthood.
-
Organize a birth plan including the place you would like to
deliver, who should be present and your preferences of medical
interventions in different circumstances.
-
A supportive environment at the birth has been shown to be
one of the most important factors in the speed of delivery
and how much pain the mother feels. Think carefully
about who you would like to have present at the birth for
support and consider a trained doula or birthing assistant.
How
have our herbal Birth Drops helped others?
'Three
months ago I gave birth to my twins and I have been meaning to
contact you ever since but, as you can imagine, spare moments
are hard to come by! I was quite nervous about going into
labor as I really wanted to have a completely natural birth without
drugs but I was worried about how I would cope with the pain and
if I would give in and demand an epidural. I wanted to let
you know that because of your Birth Drops all my worries were
for nothing as I had the most profound and special experience
of childbirth and would do it again in a second for the two little
bundles of joy I now have!' Cheryl, Mum to
Daniel and Benjamin.
'Your
Birth Drops and BirthRight Essence were fantastic and I would
recommend these products to any pregnant woman! I also think
the fact that I had a wonderful midwife who encouraged my use
of these remedies and was open to my desire for a completely natural
birth was also a major factor in my success. Thank you again
for these wonderful products- my husband and I don't plan to wait
too long for our next baby (we are both over 35) and your remedies
will be the first thing on my shopping list when I fall pregnant
again!'
S. P.
'I
am a midwife with more than 20 years experience in natural childbirth
and thought I should write and tell you how useful I have found
your remedies for my patients. I feel strongly that childbirth
is a natural and miraculous process that seldom requires medical
interference. I coach my patients in a variety of relaxation
techniques and use different methods of pain relief depending
on the individual’s needs and preferences. Your Birth Drops
have been a wonderful addition to my list of “tricks” and I have
seen the excellent pain-relieving effects as well as the effectiveness
of the drops in reducing stress that hinders so many women’s progress
in labor and can negatively affect their whole labor experience.
Keep up the wonderful work- your remedies have helped so many
of my patients already!' J.D. Licensed Midwife
