Labor Prep is our tonic formula for the final weeks of pregnancy, designed to help prepare the uterus for the work ahead.
A daily habit in the final weeks:
- Formula created by Shonda Parker, midwife and clinical herbalist
- Taken daily during the last 5 weeks, not a one-time formula
- Four herbs, extracted through a 14-day process for potency
- No alcohol, sugar, soy, salt, starch, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, milk, egg, preservatives, or major allergens
- A favorite among midwives and birth professionals
"I have used this product for the last three out of four deliveries and am about to order it for the fifth. I have no doubts that this product has helped aid in shorter and less painful deliveries." - Kim S.
*Individual results may vary.
Labor Prep combines four herbs traditionally used at term to help ready the uterus for the work ahead. Unlike a formula you'd take once labor starts, this one's meant to be taken daily, 2-3 times a day, during the final weeks of pregnancy. The herbs undergo a 14-day infusion process to extract their full potency.*
This is one many birth professionals recommend to their clients well before labor begins, worth discussing timing with your midwife or provider during the third trimester.*
Usage notes: Most providers suggest starting during the last 5 weeks of pregnancy. StarUp picks up where this leaves off. Our Pregnancy Essentials Kit and pregnancy page cover everything else.
