Rescue Remedy Review

mrs. sage

I know there are several of us dealing with anxiety while pregnant (mine hits the most at 3:30 or 4:30 a.m.) and someone mentioned a while back trying Rescue Remedy. 

I picked some up and wanted to let you know that it definitely does calm the nerves and is tasteless in water BUT I wouldn't use it several times a day.  The leading inactive ingredient is 27% alcohol.  Not a HUGE deal since you are only using four small drops diluted in water at a time (I also pour about 12 oz. of water instead of the recommended small amount) but you probably want to talk to your doctor about other options if you find that you are suffering from full blown, all day anxiety.

I also do acupuncture and HIGHLY recommend that!  It's completely safe and even helps with other pregnancy symptoms like m/s.  The only downfall is the cost since some insurance co. don't cover it and for me it's addictive.  I go once a week but if I could would probably go every other day.

Never used rescue remedy but I too do acupuncture weekly and love it! I am still nausous every week but atleast I haven't puked yet and I think the weekly acu appts have helped!
