dr.mahfooz

Dr. Mahfooz is right. You may take the following salts at various stages.

Srisri recommends the following

You may want to try the following tissue salt regime that is extremely useful in pregnancy:

Months
2 & 6: CF MP FP
3 & 7: CF MP NM
4 & 8: CF Sil NM
5 & 9: CF Sil FP

cf calc flourica
mp mag phos
fp ferrum phos
nm natrum mur
sil silicea

So you can take 2 pellets each of the above tissue salts thrice a day at a gap of 4 hours. Please don't take salts on the day you take a homeo remedy.

You have taken homeo remedies and tissue salts. Kali Carb is a prominent female remedy and it is well indicated in pregnancy. So the suggestions are gentle. Please see whether they can help.

Best Wishes.

As a holistic mom of 3 young children, in my own research, I discovered deydration is suggested as the top reason for back pain. When I read Your Bodies Many Cries for Water (written by MD) I was shocked to find out even herbal teas don't count...and that when NOT pregnant I should be drinking 1/2 my weight in water balanced with sodium. I was dehydrated on a cellular level and that my thirst 'sensor' wasn't working to tell me when I was thirsty. In fact when I was thirsty it's too late! It can take up to 6 months of proper rehydration to rehydrate on a cellular level. For me it is a conscious effort of setting timers to ensure I drink enough water and spaced apart during the day. It was an INSTANT cure every time. Even now with my husband or kids...if someone has a headache or back ache, we drink 1 glass for thirst and 1 for the headache - 95% of the time it is cleared. Also, friends had experienced miscarriages so when I read about iodine deficiency being the most probably cause I was adamant about getting enough iodine into my diet EVERY day... hope you are feeling better. Pregnancy is so incredibly awesome! Wendy

They say that iodine deficiency is the largest cause of mental retardation... google 'iodine supplementation during pregnancy'... there is also an article at sciencedirect as well as medline etc. While I don't follow allopathic medicine, their studies still carry some weight. What I did and do is take 'lugol's iodine'. I would not suggest you blindly buy some and start taking it though without researching it first. Dr. Brownstein wrote a great book called I think Iodine why you need it and why you can't live without it. He's written some awesome articles you can find on the net as well. Ideally one would have a superb diet including lots of seafood and raw veggies, no stress in their lives etc. LOL This is rarely the case, the ocean food is poluted, and well we do what we can. While I agree we should get our nutrients from foods, I went several routes, I researched alot of prenatal vitamins and the ones I came up with were the Rainbow brand as well as the Kirkman Labs one which I loved the best and DOES have iodine in it. I also used a green powdered food supplement once I could choke it back ;-) choose a good quality one without fillers. Susun Weed and Aviva Jill Romm have THE most amazing herbal books and I encourage everyone to either buy them or get them thru their library. Very helpful with recipes on nutritive tonics (including kelp) that one can brew to help with vitamins and minerals. I used them post partum with my last 2 children and my babies slept great and especially this last baby was THE hapiest baby in the whole wide world, never cried - really, people comment on it all the time!!! -of course I also don't eat dairy, wheat, soy, chocolate or eggs either...learned from the first 2. It's so worth it. I didn't with my 1st and he was colicky and cried all the time, slept lightly etc. until an older woman at a breastfeeding meeting told me about removing dairy and wheat and then I figured the rest out on my own. I have a free holistic parenting group online for moms if you ever want support or ideas just join up. holisticparents at yahoo dot com is my email address if you need any websites etc. Homeopathy was amazing through my pregnancies and with my children but I also believe that OPTIMAL nutrition and hydration are the key foundations which many times will in many cases strenghten, heal and support the body and baby.

I forgot to check - is it alright for me to continue with my prenatal vitamins along with homeo meds. or tissue salts.
**Please follow everything that your hospital asks you to do. All our suggestions are in addition to that. Please continue with prenatal vitamins and also take the remedies that have been suggested.
