Herbal Remedies in Pregnancy
From heartburn to muscle soreness to insomnia, the laundry list of uncomfortable or even painful symptoms of pregnancy is long. Our little bundles of joy are no doubt worth the discomforts, but relief from many of these irritations is often within reach with the help of simple herbs. “I love herbs because they are gentle, natural and that’s where many of our medicines were made,” says Clark County midwife Mary Bernabe. “You can grow them yourself and make salves, tinctures and teas and you know exactly what’s in them.”
