Lactating Mama Tea

Our Lactating Mama Tea is a gentle, restorative blend crafted to promote a healthy milk supply, replenish nutrients, and support new mothers on their breastfeeding journey during the sacred postpartum period- the fourth trimester. Rich in minerals, Nettle and Raspberry leaf help restore strength and tone after birth, and are often used to increase milk flow while improving overall vitality in nursing mothers. The well known galactagogue's Fenugreek, Fennel seeds, and Blessed Thistle work in harmony to encourage abundant, nourishing milk flow. 

Traditionally paired with fenugreek, Blessed Thistle works through the pituitary gland, encouraging the release of prolactin (the hormone responsible for breastmilk production). It is especially supportive when low milk supply is linked to hormonal balance or fatigue. One of the most well-studied herbs for milk supply, Fenugreek may help increase milk volume within a few days for some mothers. Fennel seeds not only promote lactation, but also work alongside Chamomile to soothe digestion for both mother & baby, potentially easing gas and colic through breastmilk. The calming energy of Chamomile supports emotional balance helping to reduce stress and anxiety, which can interfere with milk let-down. This is crucial in early motherhood to keep up a good supply! 

Ingredients: Raspberry Rubus idaeus leaf, Nettle Urtica dioca, Fennel Foeniculum vulgare seeds, Fenugreek Trigonella Foenum-graecum seeds, Blessed Thistle Cnicus benedictus, Chamomile Matricaria chamomilla flowers

Postpartum Tea Ritual:

Create a simple daily ritual just for you—before the day begins or during a quiet moment. Brew your tea with intention, breathing in the scent of the herbs as they steep. Wrap yourself in a blanket, sit in silence or with your baby, and bring presence to your body. Feel held by the earth, the plants, and your own breath.
