Lavender essential oil?

Question

I’m 6 weeks and my well-meaning grandma obviously not suspecting I’m pregnant rubbed lavender oil on me because I had a rash lol. Is this safe for pregnancy? Should I try to take a deep cleansing shower or something lol

Answer

Essential oils are wonderful for pregnancy as long as they’re from a reputable company and are used appropriately.

Answer

Lavender is fine! Eucalyptus and peppermint are two common ones you should avoid during pregnancy

Answer

Eucalyptus, spearmint and clary sage are the ones to avoid. I have limited the amount I use when diffusing or using topically. Basil was the only one that helped nausea in first trimester for me

Answer

No , it's fine and  awe your grandma sounds lovely.. she'll  be over the  moon when you announce
