I couldn't encapsulate my placenta...now what?

IF for some reason you choose not to encapsulate OR if you CAN'T encapsulate due to infection or Pathology contamination, there are other safe, natural, alternative remedies that can be helpful in this postpartum transition in lieu of placenta remedies.  Although nothing will replace the benefits of the placenta, we very strongly believe in the benefits of essential oils for mom, baby and the entire family! In fact, 100% pure therapeutic grade essential oils improve overall health and are a great ADDITION to placenta remedies.
Research has found that using essential oils such as Lavender can save significant improvement for women at risk for postpartum anxiety and depression. (See the pilot study here.
Or even that Lavender taken orally can be just as effective as Lorazepam for GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) (See study here)
Or this study that found that essential oils  have a beneficial effect on insomnia and depression in women!

Seriously!  Check it out for yourself!  If you go to PubMed.com one of the most respected online medical journal websites and type in essential oils you will get over 13,000 studies and articles to review!


There are many oils that can be used to boost energy, increase relaxation, prevent sickness, calm a fussy baby and more.

Here are a few of our postpartum favorites  :

For depression and anxiety try diffusing or applying Lavender, Joy, or Lemon Essential Oil.

For sleeplessness try Lavender, Peace and Calming or Valor diffused or applied topically
For abdominal/uterine pain try a warm wet or dry compress with several drops of PanAway
For a difficult birth or just a difficult day try Stress Away Essential Oil diffused or topically
For a fussy baby try Peace and Calming Essential Oil diluted on the bottoms of baby's feet or during infant massage
For increasing your milk supply try Fennel Essential Oil
For keeping common colds and flus at bay diffuse Thieves and Purification Essential Oil
Do you have a cesearan scar? try Frankincense !
