How to Use

Apply a small amount to the nipple area after breastfeeding or pumping, or as needed as part of your regular skin-care routine.

Because this product is used on the nipple during breastfeeding, follow the product label regarding whether any remaining salve should be removed before nursing. If you have questions about using the product while breastfeeding, consult your midwife, lactation professional, or healthcare provider.

Rooted in Midwifery & Herbal Tradition

Birth Song Botanicals was founded in 2009 by Maria Chowdhury, an herbalist and former Certified Professional Midwife. The Fayetteville, Arkansas company grew from the custom herbal preparations Maria originally created for women and families in her care.

Today, Birth Song continues that tradition with small-batch botanical products inspired by herbal knowledge, education, and the many transitions of women's lives.

Simple ingredients, thoughtful herbs, and a little everyday care for a season when you're giving so much of yourself.
