In this episode, we explore gentle, nourishing herbal allies for pregnancy and the postpartum season. I share why not all herbs are safe during pregnancy, how to think in terms of herbal actions rather than trends, and what qualities I look for when supporting expecting and new mothers.We talk about the power of nutritive tonics, nervines, demulcents, digestive herbs, and galactagogues, and I highlight some of my favorite plant allies including nettle, red raspberry leaf, oatstraw, chamomile, mint, and rose—plus a few honorable mentions like lavender, lemon balm, and calendula.You’ll also hear about my Nursing Cup Tisane, a gentle postpartum tea blend crafted to nourish, soothe, and uplift mothers in the early weeks of new life.This conversation is rooted in safety, respect for each unique mother & baby, and the belief that gentle does not mean ineffective.Tune in for a grounded, heart-centered look at how herbs can support mothers in one of life’s most transformative seasons.
