[Everything doTERRA] Re: Pregnancy and LLV, other EOs.

That is so encouraging that it eliminated morning sickness. I had morning sickness with my first for all of the first and some of the second trimester. Thanks for the information. 

Why should peppermint be avoided during pregnancy? I know it can impact milk-supply if breastfeeding in some women, but what is the reason to avoid it during pregnancy? (By the way, I've not avoided peppermint at all while nursing and I'm still going strong with my 14 month old...so I'm a lucky one that doesn't have milk supply issues from it. Thank goodness since I use LLP for allergies daily this time of year! Thanks for letting me know what the precautions are with peppermint and pregnancy, I'm also going to research and see if I can find out why the caution with it.

I know of 2 people who have said that the LLV was wonderful for their pregnancy. It completely eliminated morning sickness and gave them more energy throughout their pregnancy. One of their dr's did state to take more vitamin D with the LLV. Lavender is great for swelling and for relaxing. Try to avoid Peppermint but when necessary, it's ok to use blends with peppermint in (Digestzen, Aromatouch) sparingly. Also, stay clear of Clary Sage.

Hello everyone! 

Finding this group today was perfect timing. I just took a positive pregnancy test (okay, THREE positive pregnancy tests!) and now I have questions! I have a 14 month old who is still nursing and I have been on the LLV for a few months, I am curious if I should continue them while pregnant? Also, if the answer is yes--what else will I need to add (I'm thinking a folic acid supplement? anything else?) 

Also, any general info about oils to avoid while pregnant would be appreciated. I'm doing all the reading up I can on everythingessential.me & my Modern Essentials book is due to arrive in the mail today. 

Thanks in advance for your input, everyone!
