"When I would get out of bed in the morning I could hardly stand on my feet for weakness and a bearing-down pain. I heard of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and tried it with Lydia E. Pinkham's Liver Pills and used Lydia E. Pinkham's Sanative Wash for the white flow, and was doing fine. This was before my little girl was born. She is so smart and healthy and good-natured that I think the Compound must have made her that way."
