A complete book:
I am so impressed with this book! It is very complete. There are herbs for every aspect of a pregnant woman's life. Many of the remedies are also good for everyone. There are herbs for fertility, birth control, morning sickness, cramps, mood changes, bladder infections...and the list goes on. They even tell you how to make your own tinctures. Job well done!!
read it over and over while pregnant:
this book was the most important tool getting through my first pregnancy. i took raspberry leaf throughout my pregnancy, then squaw vine and cramp bark in my last month. i had a 3 1/2 hour labor with no drugs or procedures! my little girl was so healthy and alert! i don't just say this because i foolishly read the book and tried it with no education to back it up, i am horticulturist and herbalist with 10 years experience. she recommends helpful, healing herbs for pregnancy with great descriptions, dosages,... more info
rarely found treasure:
It is hard to find some sound documents in English about herbs in this topic. TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) uses herbs and acupuncture to treat patients. To get some knowledge about ancient solution that has been proved over thousands of years, it is not easy. Thanks to the author, some general information about herbs is revealed in this book. Can not wait to see her other books.
A lifesaver....:
I'm not well schooled in herbs or home remedies, but this book was a tremendous help to me during my last two pregnancies. There are not just herbal concoctions, but simple, common-sense solutions for everything from pain to depression to lactation issues. When I was struggling with what might have been a premature birth, I consulted this book and was able to halt my contractions, and afterwards continued a healthy, full-term pregnancy. The knowledge you'll find in these pages is priceless.
