Lansinoh4% Lidocaine Perineal Spray, Pain Relief for Postpartum Care, 3.5 Ounces

This is THE SPRAY to get for postpartum. I’m telling you. Even after my 2nd born I used it (I had a c section with him) it has WAY better ingredients than the numbing spray they give you at the hospital. It has healing and calming ingredients along with the numbing. Ingredients I can understand and are okay to use on our footer cat! I came across this BY RANDOM. I wish more moms knew about this stuff. AND IT IS CHEAP. I’d buy this for double the price lol. It lasts FOREVER. One bottle, TWO BIRTHS! And I used it even after i didn’t need it like that. I used it during that period of time when you start to do the deed again. I had a pretty bad tear etc. it wasn’t too fun for me. Even now, years later there are times when I get irritated again. This spray saves me EVERYTIME. I also use their herbal only spray too (after pain subsides). There isn’t a smell. Unlike the stuff at the hospital that smells like aerosol bc IT IS! Anyway this is one of the top products I tell new moms to get!

This spray is wonderful. It works very quickly and lasts a good length of time. It lasts about 6 hours for me. Doesn't help with any itching though. But you can use a hydrocortisone cream for that.I recommend this spray for pain relief.

Had an emergency c section unexpectedly and this spray honestly saved me. It works just about immediately, and helps with pain relief so much so that sometimes I was even able to use this instead of pain medication at times. Just spray as needed, in my case I would say the effects lasted for around 3 hours or so before starting to feel pain again. Definitely a life saver for when you need to get up at 2 am for your fussing baby. I kept mine in the bathroom to use whenever I got up, but it could be kept by your bedside as well, for convenience.

Helped so much with the pain I was having! Very easy to use, and just overall a great price for what you get!

It works, but contains alcohol and burns like crazy the first 20-30 seconds

This is the only thing I trust postpartum was given dermoplast in the hospital after the first delivery and that one burns. This one doesn't. Numbs enough so I could use the bathroom with ease. Huge value for the money I think I ended up using 2 or 3 bottles of it to recover more likely 2. Easy Application though I wish it could be used upside down. No smell

The media could not be loaded. I was a huge fan of the herbal postpartum spray at first (you can read my previous review), but then I received a bottle of this spray directly from Lansinoh to test and review… and it blew the herbal spray out of the water for me.If you don’t like to medicate, you may still choose the herbal spray. No shame in that at all. However for me, this lidocaine spray was superior simply because of the numbing capabilities. It helped me feel more human in the weeks postpartum where it seems as though everything is leaking and your body is not yours.While the lochia has slowed down, the postpartum hemorrhoids are still very real. This spray has been saving my life in that regard, if I’m being honest.I love the 360° sprayer, though I often find myself spraying directly onto toilet paper and getting the relief where I need it. This method prevents drips and soaked pads/underwear (I absolutely loathe that feeling). I have to mention that I also prefer this spray over the witch Hazel pads everyone seems to love. I hated having them stick to me or drop into the toilet (not flushable), so this has been a much better/more sanitary option this time around. I have used almost double the amount of this spray over the Lansinoh herbal postpartum spray. But again, that’s my personal preference (and relief).Overall, this spray along with the hot and cold packs (mostly living in my freezer at this point - 20 days PP) have been a very welcome addition to my postpartum basket and recovery routine this time around. I will be sure to use them again next time!

I haven't used it yet because I haven't given birth yet, but I read over the fact that it contains alcohol which you should try to avoid using on you hoo haa
