Atonic Uterus

[tallulah73]

Has anyone else had this after giving birth......?

How long does it take for all the swelling to go down and your uterus to go back to it's normal size??

Hi there

I've not had this but there are herbs you can take to help the uterus regain tone - eg raspberry leaf, which is safe to take while breastfeeding. You'd have to take either a really strong loose leaf tea and I'd drink at least 3 - 4 cups a day (rather than those tired out bags from health food shops!) or tablets / tincture though. If there is a herbalist near you I'd advise going to see them, they'd be able to recommend loads more... hope it helps.
