Bathed with warm water with my usual toiletries daily starting on the 3rd day post-partum. 1 week after (for a week) I bathed my body with herbal on top of my usual baths.

I use usual soap and shampoo with warm water first, then rinse my body with herbal bath after that. Bathe everyday but shampoo every 2 days.

once to twice a week with the herbal water. I use normal soap and shampoo
