My Experience with POM


Where Did I Purchase It?
I bought Pom (Pomegranate) Juice from Costco, a store in the United States. Another store in the United States that sell it is Wal-Mart. However, Pomegranate Juice can be purchased on Amazon.com, such as Lakewood Pure Pomegranate Juice from Amazon.  < That is an active link that will take you to Amazon. It is a product that is eligible to be used with Amazon Prime membership or Free Super Shipping with regular membership.  


How Much Juice?
The brand I am currently using has 60 fluid ounces per container. While waiting for my postpartum menstrual after the birth of my 2nd child,  I started drinking .5 - 2 cups a day at 9.5 months postpartum.



How does it taste?

It honestly tastes similar to drinking pure cranberry juice (not the sweet cocktail). It's not too bad drinking it, but can sometimes leave a little bit of that after taste.


Why  Am I Taking It?
 I have heard breastfeeding might thin out your uterine lining. A midwife I know said breastfeeding can cause low estrogen levels and low estrogen can cause thin uterine lining. Going hand and hand with a short luteal phase (the egg does not have enough time to implant into the uterine lining properly), I can understand why some breastfeeding women may not become pregnant right away during irregular cycles when their postpartum menstrual has returned.

Clear Blue Plus Pregnancy Test (Blue Dye)

Clear Blue Plus Pregnancy Test  with Blue Dye (+ / - ) This is what a negative looks like: Side Note: Blue dyes are often said to more frequently give false positives than pink dye.

Frida Mom for Post Laparoscopy Care

  My Frida Mom Basket for Post-Laparoscopy Care. Why I Love the Frida Mom Line (Even Beyond Motherhood) One of the things I’ve really come to appreciate is how versatile the Frida Mom line is—not just for new moms, but for anyone recovering from abdominal surgeries, such as laparoscopies for endometriosis. After surgery, comfort and gentle care are everything. That’s where the C-section recovery underwear comes in. Even if you haven’t had a baby, the design makes sense—when you have incisions on your abdomen, you need something soft, high-waisted, and non-restrictive. These disposable underwears are a lifesaver compared to standard disposable Depends. The big difference? You can build your own pad system . Start with the underwear. Add a menstrual pad. Layer on a witch hazel perineal liner, perineal cream, or both. Attach an optional heating pad for cramping. It’s completely customizable depending on what your body needs that day. I also want to mention the liners pack...

My Laparoscopy Recovery Essentials: What’s Actually Helping Me Heal

Disclaimer: Links to all the products I mentioned are included. I am not being paid to promote any of them and do not receive payments. Skin sensitivity may impact your experiences with these products. Recovering from my laparoscopy has been a journey, and honestly, some days are more uncomfortable than others. Over the past week, I’ve found a few products that have made a huge difference in how I feel—both physically and mentally. Here’s what’s been helping me get through it: 1. Body Wash That Feels Safe Before and after surgery, I wanted something gentle that still felt clean. I’ve been using Dove Antibacterial Body Wash , and it’s been perfect. It keeps the incision area clean without stinging or irritating my skin, which is such a relief.  2. Underwear That Actually Works I never thought I’d get excited about disposable underwear, but Frida Mom Disposable C-Section Underwear has been a game-changer. They’re soft, supportive, and don’t press on my stomach—exactly what ...
