Using A Herbal Cream When Inducing Labor Naturally
|
If swollen ankles, puffy fingers,
severe back pain, lack of sleep and cervical pressure are what you have
been enduring for the past 37 weeks or so, you are probably considering
ways for
inducing labor naturally.
There are so many hyped up ways out
there, that it is easy to get confused. Many of the methods you will
read about are only 50% or 40% effective, such as sex and castor oil.
And with castor oil, comes the risk of severe diarrhea and dehydration.
Many midwives and doulas will tell you
that using something to help with the onset of labor is a good idea, as
long as you are at least 38 weeks. Many women seem to struggle to labor
on their own, without the aid of medical intervention, herbs, old wives
tales or acupressure. Using the most basic methods for inducing labor
naturally, such as; sex, castor oil, nipple stimulation and red
raspberry leaf tea (to name a few), are all good ideas for most women,
but not typically very effective. However there is something you can
use which is extremely effective, and that is cohosh.
What is black and blue cohosh? These
are roots from 2 different plants, and are extremely effective in
bringing on steady labor contractions and also easing the pain as well.
Many midwives support its use (both oral and topical), and recommend it
to their patients. Although this herb can be taken orally, many
pregnant women seem to prefer the topical application instead. With
both types of applications, the herb (cohosh) enters the blood stream,
and will in most cases bring on good strong contractions, speeding the
labor process and reducing the pain and suffering of prolonged labor.
One of the most effective and best smelling labor creams is called
LaborBoost Labor Cream.
LaborBoost Labor Cream
uses black and
blue cohosh, calendula, vitamin E and jasmine (which give it a wonderful
smell). This cream is so effective in augmenting slow, prodormal labor,
and has helped so many women that the results really speak for
themselves. As one woman wrote, “"Thank God for LaborBoost! I had been
in early labor for several days. After one application I went into labor
1 1/2 hours later and gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby boy 3 hours
after that! "-Carri G. Doula & Mom, Berthoud, CO. Another lady wrote,
“"I used Labor Balm when I started having Braxton-Hicks contractions at
38 weeks. I rubbed the balm on my belly and 4 hours later I was having
mild contractions. After two hours of steady contractions, we went to
the hospital. I was 4 cm. I couldn't believe it! “- 1st time mom
Denver, CO.
This cream comes highly recommended,
because it is a non-toxic, non-invasive, non-medical alternative for
inducing labor naturally. LaborBoost was designed by a certified doula,
and is used all across the United States. It is an excellent buy for
any woman looking to end the suffering of prolonged labor, or to begin
the process for others. When it comes to labor induction, there really
is no other way.
