Contract Ease is our postpartum formula, easing afterbirth cramping while calming an exhausted, overworked nervous system.
More than just afterpains:
- Nine herbs covering both physical cramping and postpartum nerves
- For short-term use, up to one week postpartum
- Combines uterine antispasmodics with calming nervines like valerian and chamomile
- No alcohol, sugar, soy, salt, starch, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, milk, egg, preservatives, or major allergens
- Formula created by Shonda Parker, midwife and clinical herbalist
"After 8 natural births, there are some things that you figure out. This product I found and began using 3 children ago and consider it to be an essential for a post-labor mom." - Jessica
*Individual results may vary.
Contract Ease is formulated specifically for right after birth. Cramp bark, wild yam, and black haw work on the physical side, easing the afterpains and uterine cramping that come as your body returns to its pre-pregnancy state. The other six, valerian, hops, chamomile, catnip, skullcap, and fennel, bring calming, traditionally nervine support for an exhausted nervous system in those first postpartum days.*
Usage Notes: Meant for short-term use, up to a week postpartum. Labor Prep and StartUp are formulated for before childbirth. For breastfeeding and additional pregnancy support, our Pregnancy Essentials Kit and pregnancy page cover what else might help.
