Post partum product recommendations

3 replies

Can anyone recommend any nice products to have for the fourth trimester? I'm currently expecting no2 and remember that with my first there was so much prep BEFORE baby arrived and after it was here, other than Lanolin nipple cream etc, I found such a shortage of products to help with things like hair loss, puffy eyes, c section scar. Just general self pamper products.

Any recommendations or must haves that I should stock up on!?

I didn't really think about self care after my first baby but having just had my second DD before Christmas, I have been a lot more aware of (trying!) to look after myself and grab 30 minutes peace in the bath when I can.
My partner bought me a post partum set from Mum Bub Hub and I really recommend their products. Soothing balms to help healing and also relaxing bath products that feel like such a treat: mumbubhub.co.uk/postpartum-recovery-shop?category=Gifts

Neal's Yard also do really nice bath and massage oils:

Good luck with your second baby!

I had my second baby last autumn. I remembered feeling a bit “meh” about myself after my first so bought myself a few pick me up products for after the baby arrived, just things that I like but don’t often treat myself to. I got Estée Lauder eye masks, Fresh hydrating face mask (my skin was so dry after my first baby), L’Occitane almond shower oil and milk concentrate and Burts Bees mama bee oil. It’s been nice using them for occasional pamper nights (when baby is playing ball!)
