Help on getting together homeopathic/essential oils kit

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Hi, during my last labor, the midwives had all the homeopathic and essentials oils I need, but this time it seems like I need to supply these. Here's the list I have come up with so far, does anyone have thoughts?

Homeopathy

Aconite (shock, fear of death, too fast)
Caulophyllum (stalled labor)
Pulsatilla (speed up labor, helplessness)
Sepia (exhaustions)
Arnica (increase energy, reduce bruising)
Kali Carb (back labor)
Belladonna (cervical lip)


Essential Oils

Clary Sage
Cypress
Geranium (mix for transition/pushing phases)

Lemon Balm (for relaxing during phase 1)

I would also include a small bottle of Rescue Remedy. It is a Bach Flower Essence. Check out www.rescueremedy.com

Any other suggestions? I'm interested in this myself.

I like your list. I think with the edition of rr it's probably pretty accurate.

I remember my mw always saying that if she could only bring 2 things to a birth they would be arnica and rescue remedy.

I have a Helios kit of specific remedies for childbirth, here's what's in it:
aconite, arnica, bellis per, calendula, carbo veg, caulop., chamomilla, cimicifuga, gelsemium, hypericum, ipecacuanha, kali carb, kali phos, phytolacca, pulsatilla, secale, sepia, staphisagria

After 4 homebirths (and owning the kit since my first) I've only ever used the arnica, chamomilla, and pulsatilla.
