Most parents have a new baby enter the family and they are overjoyed, it is such a joyous occasion in their life. Even the second, third or fourth child also brings those same feelings of anticipation and excitement. The entire nine months before the actual birth itself is usually a time of planning and preparation for the big day.
After the birth though, the mother is usually left with a body which she doesn't even recognize as her own. Excess weight and fat deposits can be found in areas she never had before. Plus then there's those inevitable stretch marks and the scarring from the birth itself which have now become the mother's greatest concern.
But when checking out the selections available for remedies, what you are going to find is selection after selection, all based on chemically derived fragrances and a concoction straight out of what "might as well have been the glue factory". The ingredients list of names, if you can read and pronounce them, is horrible.
The problem here though, talk to your doctor, the pharmacist and the hospital you are using and each is going to pretty much give you the same answer. "Well, that's just what's out there and available. It doesn't matter anyway. They're all safe".
But I don't know about you, if I can't even pronounce it, how do I know it's safe for me and my baby?
There is actually some pretty darn good choices out there which are safe for both mother and the baby (yes, the baby is affected also if the mother is breastfeeding). So, if this is on your mind right now, or you're soon to be in this situation, check here for some ideas which might be just the solution you have been looking for.
Or if you have already been through this and have found a solution which worked for you, let us know. We all know we wanted that new bundle with all our hearts but why did it have to ruin our bodies?
