Jasmine and Pregnancy

My goal for the new year is to blog on AT LEAST one popular question I am frequently asked…

Tonight’s will be about JASMINE ESSENTIAL OIL and PREGNANCY.

I LOVE the smell of Jasmine oil.  It is possibly one of my favorite smells on the planet.  It is such a decadent and “goddess feeling” oil to me.

HOWEVER…it is my opinion that Jasmine Essential oil is NOT AT ALL safe during pregnancy.  there are MANY reputable essential oil books and research articles that cite Jasmine as “THE” oil to assist in the placenta releasing in a retained placenta situation…therefore—I NEVER use it on a woman until it is time for the placenta to release.

I have seen it work wonders in THAT situation in a birth setting…and I also believe that I just *might* have caused my OWN placental abruption with my fourth baby (that ended in an emergency c-section!)

I have seen it work beautifully in situations where we NEEDED the placenta to release…so…consequently…I never use it for pregnancy!

Blessings! mamajess
