🔆Cater to Mom Spotlight🔆

Meet Rachael Young, the powerhouse behind Fourth Family a daily herbal regimen for a Supported Postpartum. In Rachael's own words she shared with us why she created the Postpartum Mood product to support all parents birthing and non-birthing.

"I created Fourth Family because maternal mental health in the US is in crisis. There’s a gap in the market for effective products that support postpartum depression/anxiety (PPDA) while also being safe for breastfeeding mamas and our babies. “Mother” and “Nature” have been separated from each other almost entirely by allopathic medicine, and we feel this disconnect—and it shows. We aim to reconnect mamas with themselves through humanity’s strongest healing allies: the herbs.

It is possible to feel better.

When my suffering felt insurmountable eight months after childbirth, I sought help, begging my midwife for a bottle of Zoloft. But I couldn’t bring myself to swallow even one pill because I couldn’t find any studies on the emotional experience of adults whose moms took SSRIs while breastfeeding. I asked a friend, who was taking Zoloft while breastfeeding, whether her baby was experiencing side effects. Her response: “I don’t know.” She consulted the drug’s website and was shocked to find that yes, he was having symptoms—including presenting with “the jitters.”

For myself and for her, I took on the task of searching for convenient high-quality herbal products but couldn’t find anything commercially available specific to maternal mental health for PPDA that fell under the umbrellas of “safe for breastfeeding” and “no interactions with pharmaceutical medicines.” Herbs are the obvious and effective natural support for human bodies.

The world needs such offerings —so I had to create them!

We are so excited to feature the Postpartum Mood in our February box and offer this amazing product very soon in our Deluxe Postpartum Recovery Boxes.
