Found this post that VERY pregnant me wrote not long before giving birth to my baby Kruze!
Thought Iβd share it again π
If you were wondering what oils I’m taking with for labor/delivery/postpartum (because by now surely you know this mama uses oils for eerrrrthang)– wonder no more π
Dudes. Avert your eyes. I use words like lady garden and perineum all in the same sentence.
Valor 2 to help balance my body physically & emotionally, to give me courage & confidence, & to combat on-going aches (especially for my back ππΌ)
Orange to diffuse because it’s super uplifting, calming & stimulates the immune system
Frankincense because Frankincense.. if you know me personally you know this is my go to for calming my nervous. It supports the immune system + the pituitary (“master gland” that produces many hormones) and the pineal gland (responsible for melatonin production). It’s considered a Holy Oil & was among one of the anointing oils given to baby Jesus.
Helichrysum to be applied to my lower back during labor
Peppermint to sniff if/when I get nauseous (I threw up right before & after transition during kyzers birth)
Believe, Joy, Northern Lights Black Spruce & Stress Away all for emotional support, pregnancy & labor+delivery are an emotional roller coaster yall ππΌ
Clary Sage to encourage labor to progress
Gentle Baby for me post partum (I’ve loveddddddd it and used it daily through out the pregnancy, it’s awesome for reducing stress & for soothing stretched, stressed skin)
Lavender because I go nowhere without it (will diffuse it when I get the chance to sleep for a couple hours after delivery)
Lemon for my water because it’s refreshing, gives me energy & has a ton of benefits so I drink it daily
& Claraderm to support healing & soothing for my lady garden & my stretched stomach after birth– also it’s what I’ve used to prepare my perineum for birth (I didn’t tear with kyzer and don’t plan to tear with this baby π πΌ)
Plus there’s a roller specifically for labor that Kyle will roll on my back as needed & that I’ll roll on my stomach PP for the discomfort that come along with my uterus contracting back down to size π
Oh AND! Ningxia. All the Ningxia for whole-body support & sustainable energy during (and after I’m sure) labor.
To say I’m excited is an understatement yall. π€
