Excerpts from Mothering the Mother: The Importance of Postpartum Careby Rev. Pilar (Ma’at) Grant, Nov 02, 2011
After birth pains
I did some extensive research and discovered the benefits of calcium and magnesium.
I took 1000mg of calcium and 500mcg of magnesium as soon as the baby was born and I didn't feel the afterbirth pains. I was aware of the afterbirth uterine contractions yet experienced no pain. I took one to two tablets a day for 1 week.
Insomnia
Calcium magnesium taken one hour before bed helps you to sleep soundly. A nice cup of raspberry and chamomile tea will help the mother to rest well.
