Your Questions About Natural Pregnancy Remedies

herbal remedies for miscarriages?

ive just found out i have miscarried again and decided to look up different options to help continue pregnancy as i can fall easy but can get pass the First stage. i came across lots of site about natural ways to help and they suggest taking herbs that help thicken the lining and make the cervix stronger do you think this is safe or do you think the doctor we laugh it off as they don’t like the herbal way. i do have a herbalist for ibs do you think is worth talking to her?
sorry this has gone into wrong section but if anyone has any ideas or thoughts please say as im trying to cover every idea out there so i increase my chances of a health full term pregnancy.

Michelle answers:

You need to be real careful and do a lot of research. There is little effectiveness and virtually no safety testing done on herbal remedies. You need to make sure that the claims made for them are backed up by _real_ peer-reviewed scientific research.

Then you have to balance the potential benefits against the risks of using a compound as a medication when nobody has any idea if it is safe to take during pregnancy.

Try this: substitute the words ‘herbal remedy’ with ‘untested medication’ – then decide if you want to take that kind of risk with an unborn child.

Michelle answers:

You will need to check with your doctor, but my OB/midwifes recommended half a unisom. I’m not sure how that would interact with your current meds, but it worked for me.

Eyebrow situation 🙁 Desperate for help!?

Hi, a month ago I accidentally over-plucked my eyebrows and they looked horrible. What’s worse is since I became pregnant, my hair growth has drastically slowed down. One month later, not a single hair has started to grow on my eyebrows. I mean NOTHING! I don’t know what to do.

Is there a natural remedy I could use on my brows to get them to grow (that’s safe for pregnancy)? It looks horrible!!! I’m so sad that this happened. Besides a brow pencil, what can I use? :*(

Michelle answers:

I heard vitamin E gel caspules help, but honestly I don’t know how valid that is, My sister would break the gel caps over and run them through her hair and took them orally and her hair became really shiny and healthy so maybe it helps with hair growth. I guess try googling it to see if it really does. I woul but I dont have the time too.

Donald asks…

Is my daughter has hyperactive disorder or ADHD? Onlye serious answers please?

Me and my wife arruged several times during her pregnancy and now I have a daughter and she is around 2 years old. My question is my daughter has ADHD or hyperactive. Her daily routine is like
1. Sleeps for 10 hours/day.
2. Feeding her is difficult
3. Always moving from one place to another
4. But seems to be attentive since she understands the things which we tell her.
5. Handling her outside the house becomes difficult as she always on the move.
6. She sings and dances for her favorite music.
7. Throws some things but that is not often.

I would like to know whether she is hyperactive or suffering from ADHD. If yes please tell me a NATURAL remedy. Please serious answers only…

Michelle answers:

What you’ve described is a normal 2-year-old.
