I used a soft-side plastic 'squeezy bottle' with a special lid that gives a gentle stream of water, and filled it with a 'tea' made from my post natal healing bath herbs. I could 'squirt' my peri while sitting on the toilet with the warm herbal liquid. Sometimes i added sea salt or a drop of tea tree oil to the warm water. it was so soothing. I also had the post natal herbal healing bath every day for the first week after birth. The herbs are so soothing, smell amazing and they are antiseptic so they prevent infection. Everything healed so well, including the baby's cord stump. That post natal herbal bath was one of the things I enjoyed the most about the day i gave birth, cuddling my baby and soaking up the blisss!
