Pregnancy eo's

[Guest guest]

Hi guys!

I'm coming out of lurk mode with a question about Pregnancy & eo's. I

have a friend who is in her 2nd trimester I believe & is having chronic

congestion, etc. She wants to try to alleviate those symptoms naturally

w/ using OTC meds. I am VERY familiar about what to do for this if it

were me, but not too familiar with Pregnancy as it doesn't pertain to me

at this time. If it were me, I'd be inhaling eucalyptus, tea tree,

peppermint, rosemary & lavender (blended of course) & using that same

blend in a bath. If I had a sore throat with that I would put a drop of

that blend in 2 Tbsp. of honey & take 1 tsp. of that & mix it in 4 oz.

of warm water. Really works for me! I just don't know if those oils are

safe to use in pregnancy. If not, could someone please suggest something

that might help her...her OB/GYN is not helpful or encouraging when it

comes to natural " remedies " for lack of a better phrase, so she turned

to me for advice.

 

Also, her small children (3 & 1 1/2 yo) are also plagued with the

sniffles & she was wondering what might help them, as well.

 

Thanks so much for all your help!!

Always in faith,
