Ladies this is a god send but only if you have reached the safe stage of 37 + weeks
Simply rub clargy sage directly onto tummy for 20 mins, then 2 hours later bath in it, then as everythings starts to relax rock on a gym ball,
I strongly recommend this, you labour WILL start within 12 hours x

Just one question about this... I read on the bottle that you aren't supposed to apply directly to the skin until its diluted with something else? is this true, cause I took a bath with it, and rubbed it on my belly. MY hubby comes home tommorow and Im hoping for our little boy to come too!!!

Ladies, please ask your own OBs/midwives about these types of things. There's a lot of annonymity/safety on the net, and not all advise is necessarily the best. I don't know about this particular advise, but both of you have read the labels which warn against its use....

It's a good idea to put the clary sage into a carrier oil. It doesn't change the effectiveness, it just makes your skin less likely to react. And almost everything says to avoid while you're pregnant -- tylenol, ibuprofen, zoloft, colace, milk of magnesia -- practically everything my doctor has recommended for one thing or another has a warning on it. They do that to save their own b___ts from a lawsuit, not because it's necessarily harmful for the baby. And always talk to your doctor before trying something!! Your medical history may have something in it that makes it unsafe to try different things. So talk to your doctor. He'll likely tell you to just wait and let things happen, but if you push him a little, he would rather give you some safe things to try than to have you try something unsafe and end up in an emergency situation. Noone likes emergency births.
