PREGNANCY : A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE

A pregnancy is not just a unique and beautiful experience but can be a period full of ups and downs on physical and emotional levels. On a physical level all types of problems can occur like high blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, varicose veins, obesity, painful breasts. Hormonal levels change a lot and therefore have a strong influence on an emotional level.

EMOTIONAL INSTABILITY

During the pregnancy a high level of activity is seen on the hormonal level. These can bring on strong emotions, which can be brought back into balance by applying the right Bach Flower Essences.

· Mood swings

Pregnancy and mood swings usually go together. One moment you’re beaming and cheerful, the next you see problems popping up everywhere and feel very depressed. You feel at the mercy of your own emotions. This situation is very difficult to deal with for both yourself and your environment. Bach Flower Essences will reduce the mood swings and bring about more balance so you are no longer feeling at the mercy of your emotions.

· Fear attacks

Under the influence of changing hormones sudden strong fear attacks can occur during pregnancy. A person can feel threatened by them and this can cause panic. Certain flower essences, which are in the pregnancy composition, will bring calmness and peace to the front during pregnancy.

· Listlessness

Because of general fatigue, especially during the first months, you don’t feel like doing much. The expecting mother is missing vitality and zest for life and therefore plays a passive role in life often letting it all happen without participating in it. Bach Flower Essences will bring joy in life and an active participation in it in spite of the fatigue.

· Worry

During pregnancy most women worry too much about the baby they are carrying in their belly. They worry and are very afraid about what could go wrong during the pregnancy. This tension will have an effect on the foetus and can cause sleeplessness. Concerning the delivery many women worry months in advance. Bach Flower Essences will make sure that a level of caution is present without the fearful worries that have a negative influence on the pregnancy.

· Depression

Mood swings are most likely to happen. But it is possible that during the whole pregnancy you can feel more depressed than happy. You get the tendency to close yourself off from the outside world, you don’t want to do much, are melancholic, and it feels like it is pointless… Flower essences will clear away the dark clouds and let the sun shine into your life again.

· Intolerance

Certain women are not good company when they are pregnant. They criticise everything and always know better. They are very intolerant and get upset when things go wrong. Here flower essences can assist in being more tolerant and highlight the good intent of others.
