Safe And Effective Home Remedy For Pregnancy Rash

There are many conflicting opinions about using essential oils during pregnancy; however, most experts agree that certain oils are not only un-harmful, but also very beneficial if used correctly. Essential oils have long been renowned for their healing and regenerative properties, and these amazing remedies will reduce irritation while enhancing skin elasticity.

* Roman Chamomile – 5 drops
* Lavender – 7 drops
* Patchouli – 3 drops

You can safely add these essential oils to the cream above or add to 16oz of the cream of your choice. Always choose therapeutic-grade, pure essential oils from a reputable brand and never apply undiluted to the skin, and do not take internally.

To further help your skin deal with all of the changes it has to bear during pregnancy, you may want to include relaxing breathing exercises to reduce stress and nurture yourself. It may be nice to take a moment a few times per day to relax and encourage positive thoughts as you apply this soothing, healing cream.

In many ways, this is the perfect opportunity to develop a little patience and kindness towards yourself during this amazing time of your life, despite the pregnancy rash. Developing places in your day for nurturing now will give you the practice you need to care for your baby when the time comes. And believe me, you’ll need it.
