Natural Pregnancy Tip!

PoppySeedWindsor

Hi All,

I have been going natural for my pregnancy too (ie; no medications or drugs). At 32 weeks pregnant I JUST landed on a heartburn treatment that really really works:

Simply mix together minced garlic (5-6 cloves), honey (2-3 TBSP) and turmeric powder (enough to make the mixture like a paste when mixed together). The consistency should be paste-like, kind of like almond butter. Whenever my heartburn acts up...which is basically three times a day thanks to baby who likes to sit right below/in my rib cage...I take a little finger full of it, just like I would a little dollop of frosting!

Just thought I'd share!

Anybody have any other good, non-medicated suggestions for heartburn or other pregnancy maladies?

A little baking soda in water takes my heart burn away almost instantly. Tastes gross though.

I could never do garlic... I have a major garlic aversion during pregnancy and with DS for several months after. I used garlic drops in my ear for an ear ache last week and I thought I was going to die.
