Padsicles/witch hazel?

Lindsay

Hi ladies!

I read online that these “padsicles” are a must-do for my lady bits postpartum. When I was showing my mom the things I bought for them she asked if Witch Hazel is a good idea because it contains 14% of alcohol.... has anyone ever made these and does the alcohol make your lady bits burn? I just want to make sure I’m buying the right things and not going to cause any added pain to my potential stitches.

This is the witch hazel I’ve bought and I want to make sure it’s the right stuff.

Are these things really that great? Are they worth making?

Thanks in advance!
