Safe, Secure Pregnancy: Essential Oils For Pregnancy

essential oils for pregnancy

Some people are wary of using essential oils for pregnancy, but it can be a great way to relax whilst still being safe, healthy and secure. Limiting the use of the essential oils to the most delicate ones can ensure that your pregnancy is as healthy as it should be.

Whilst pregnant, you may only want to use a couple drops in a diffuser, bath or mixed with a larger amount of carrying oil like coconut oil than you normally would. 

The use of these oils can help you relax and improve your mood, just what you’ll be needing during this time. If you're too stressed during your pregnancy it could have unwanted consequences. 

This comprehensive guide will review some of the common essential oils sold by Radha Beauty that you may wish to use during your pregnancy.


Essential Oils During Pregnancy


If you’re looking to use essential oils, you’ll really want to make sure they’re pure. You should avoid an essential oil is if it contains unnecessary fillers or premixed bases and additives. You wouldn’t want to use these normally, so you definitely wouldn’t use these when you have a baby on the way.

Essential oils are highly concentrated, so diluting them is a must when using them during your pregnancy.

After consulting with your doctor, you may even decide to completely avoid the use of essential oils during your first trimester. If you do decide to use oils during your first trimester, start at the lowest dose you can.

The safest way I recommend using essential oils in pregnancy is in a diffuser. Some of these oils can be so strong that they may cause uterine contractions if applied directly and undiluted on the skin, so always use caution.
