Choosing a breastfeeding tea
A breastfeeding tea is a herbal blend made with botanicals that mothers have traditionally drunk while feeding. The Sabi makes the teas here, and its Fourth Trimester Set includes a blend for lactation alongside two others for the first year. The Sabi says its blends were developed with an OB-GYN and a nutritionist. Always check the ingredients, and speak to your midwife or GP before drinking herbal tea while breastfeeding, especially if you take medication. Each brand here was assessed on its ingredients and how its products are made before joining Ziracle.
Postpartum tea blends
The Sabi's Mama Recover is a postpartum tea made for the first 18 months after birth. The Postpartum Recovery Edit pairs Mama Recover with a second blend, and the Full Postpartum Set adds skincare to three herbal blends. A herbal blend steeps best in just-boiled water for five minutes, and a large flask makes it easy to sip during night feeds. If you are looking for a lactation tea, check the ingredients on each listing.
Postpartum gift ideas
A postpartum gift focuses on the mother rather than the baby, which many new parents appreciate. The Sabi's sets come ready to give, and Silvan Skincare makes a Mum to Be bundle with gentle skincare for pregnancy and the early weeks. Pair a tea set with a soft muslin or a meal delivered to the door, and the new parents will remember it. A handwritten note offering to walk the dog or hold the baby while they shower is often the most welcome gift of all.
Brewing and storing herbal tea
Store the blends in an airtight tin away from light and steam, so they keep their flavour. Use a fine infuser or teapot, and make a big pot in the morning to drink through the day. Herbal teas are caffeine-free, so they suit late nights. A breastfeeding tea set makes a thoughtful present for a baby shower. New Baby Gifts has presents for new parents, Tea has more teas, Feeding & Weaning has weaning sets, and Self-care guide: The maintenance that keeps everything else running has small ideas for busy weeks.
