Most teas I encounter are for drinking, but the Spoiled Mama offers something I have never seen before: Sitz-ing Pretty Postpartum Sitz Tea ($16). Pack the reusable muslin bag with this tea blend of organic herbs, shepherds purse, yarrow and golden seal, then dip it into a warm bath and to help reduce swelling and promote healing. The blend also says it has antibacterial properties that help stave off infection. Anyone try this out?
