“A BABY IN EVERY BOTTLE?” The Story of Lydia Pinkham

ebay by Doris B. Linden nasa

Gathering Lydia E. Pinkham memorabilia probably doesn't rank very high on most collector wish lists. Nevertheless, Lydia (1819-1883) the 10th child of Rebecca and William Estes of Salem, Massachusetts was without a doubt the dominant woman of her times. Oliver Wendell Holmes, William Lloyd Garrison, Susan B. Anthony, Frederick Douglas and many others were not strangers to the Pinkham household. Her name, picture and medicine became world famous and they allowed her brothers, sons, and grandchildren to successfully market her vegetable compound via a 14 1/2 oz. bottle well into the 20th century. And their efforts left a challenging trail of bottles for me to collect.

I grew up within a few miles of the red brick Lydia Pinkham bottling plant at 305 Western Avenue in Lynn, Massachusetts. It's still there even though the original company is long gone. The house where Lydia first brewed her potion on the kitchen stove is just up the street at number 271. It's neglected, dilapidated and a small sign is all that identifies the home of the famous lady who once lived there.

For years my Thanksgiving dinner would hardly have been complete without a Lydia Pinkham yarn spelled out by Uncle John who worked at the Factory. He knew all the neat inside jokes about the magical cures claimed in the Pinkham literature. I mostly listened and laughed when the others did.

The ingredients in Lydia's compound were never a secret: licorice, chamomile, pleurisy root, Jamaica dogwood, black cohosh, life plant, fenugreek seed and dandelion root. Little wonder that no one ever copied or tried to imitate it. My mother said it wasn't half bad which, of course, gave me pause to contemplate my own beginnings.

Anyway, over the years I've lovingly acquired a goodly ration of Lydia's past advice, booklets, promotional items, and 77 absolutely plain looking, mostly all different, specimens of her famous 8” X 3 1/4” oval medicine bottles. I've got bottles with English, French and Spanish labels...with many more languages to go I'm told. Several of my bottles are still full and in the original boxes with nice labels. I've never had a sample, not even a sip. Not yet, anyway.

I was almost 12 years old when my curiosity allowed me the courage to peek in the hall medicine closet to see what was on one of Lydia's informative labels. After reading it, I was scared silly and prayed to God every night thereafter that I would never have “Prolapses uteri.” I wasn't altogether sure what a womb was back then, but I knew that I didn't want mine to fall so that I'd have to depend on Lydia's dreadful brown medicine to fix it.

And of course, nobody really believed that there was “a baby in every bottle” as the saying went, but Uncle John, hardly a teetotaler himself, would gladly attest to the fact that there was up to 18% alcohol in some of those 14 1/2 ounce bottles.... sometimes more, sometime less; but “only as a solvent,” the Pinkham people explained to the Government and the Women's Christian Temperance League.

Answer 5

It is an old time remedy but it has nothing to do with conception. It is a remedy for menstrual cramps and PMS. It won't help you. I don't think it is made any more but you can google it. Talk to a Dr for advice on conceiving.
