Homeopathie tijdens zwangerschap, bevalling en kraamtijd

Homeopathy in  Pregnancy and child-birth

A woman goes through many hormonal changes in different phases of her life from Puberty to Menopause. I would say Pregnancy is one the very important phases in the life of a woman. During pregnancy there are also a lot of hormonal changes in her life and Pregnancy itself is a huge change in a woman’s life. She has a huge responsibility and her body is adapting and preparing for this new phase. She is also very cautious, fearful, anxious as all these changes are completely new for her. She is very careful about everything – about what he eats, drinks, wears, and of course about the medications she takes. Then, I would suggest Homeopathy is the best option for a pregnant woman.

Homeopathy is the safest therapy a pregnant woman can take. It is absolutely safe for the mother and the baby. There are no side-effects of Homeopathic medicines. There are no addictions with Homeopathic medicines. There are many Homeopathic medicines that make the process of delivery easy and help the delivering woman.

Why Homeopathy for Pregnancy?

1. Homeopathy is a natural, gentle, holistic therapy free from any side effects.
2. Homeopathic remedies can offer safe and gentle cure during all the phases of this special period of Pregnancy and delivery.
3. We have few very good Homeopathic remedies that can be helpful to deal with the most common symptoms of pregnancy like:
   • nausea and vomiting
   • acidity during pregnancy
   • varicose veins and haemorrhoids
   • body pains and muscular pains
   • oedema, fatigue and weakness. 
4. Homeopathy can also help to deal with some complications during pregnancy like diabetes during pregnancy, high blood pressure with oedema, convulsions during pregnancy. Homeopathic medicines can help to reduce the blood sugar levels, reduce the blood pressure and help with oedema. 
5. Homeopathic medicines are absolutely safe to be taken along with other multi-vitamins, omega-3, calcium, folic acid supplements which are usually prescribed and taken by pregnant women. Homeopathic medicines don’t interfere with conventional medicines.
6. During pregnancy a woman experiences sometimes a lot of discomfort, pains, cannot sleep due to weight of the baby in the last trimester of pregnancy. We have some very good Homeopathic medicines available to help for this.
7. There are also a lot of psychological symptoms that we see in a woman during this phase of pregnancy due to a lot of hormonal changes in this period like mood swings, fears, anxiety, emotional upsets, weeping, depression, insomnia etc. These can be very nicely dealt with our Homeopathic medicines.
8. Also we have Homeopathic remedies for women having a history of repeated abortions in the second, third or seventh month of pregnancy and to prevent this Homeopathy can help so that it smoothens the process of pregnancy.
9. Homeopathy can also help in conditions when sometimes there is malposition of the foetus – breech presentation.
10. Recurrent Urinary tract infections during pregnancy can also be nicely dealt with homeopathic medicines.
11. Even other general complaints like fever, cold, diarrhoea, eczema, asthma, etc occurring during the course of pregnancy can very nicely help with Homeopathic remedies.
12. During pregnancy if a woman suffers from any grief or shock  due to loss of loved ones, any trauma, injury then the effect of this can cause problems in the newborn baby or even in the later years in child. We see a lot of developmental problems, ADHD, autism, etc in children and at that time the mother’s history during pregnancy becomes very important for us. If these emotional psychological problems in a woman during pregnancy are properly taken care of by giving properly selected homeopathic remedies then the effects of these shocks are not reflected in the child later. Homeopathy has a very vital role in this.

How can Homeopathy help during delivery and after child birth:

Homeopathy can smoothen the process of delivery and is very helpful in following situations that can occur during or after delivery:

1. Sometimes during delivery the woman does not get proper pains. We have Homeopathic medicines that can be given to bring about uterine contractions, induce labour pains and for the proper dilatation of the cervical os. So that smooth delivery occurs.
2. In some situations there is retained placenta and we have Homeopathic medicines to help to remove the retained placenta.
3. Sometimes after delivery there is a lot of bleeding (post-partum haemorrhage) which can be stopped with proper selected homeopathic medicines. And also a lot of weakness, anaemia due to profuse blood loss after delivery can be helped with homeopathic remedies.
4. Homeopathic remedies help to prevent suppurative conditions after delivery if there are some cuts and incisions made during delivery. 
5. Some of the complications like retention of urine after delivery or puerperal convulsions can be helped with homeopathic medicines.
6. Some women suffer from post-partum depression where they feel very anxious, nervous, depressed, lonely, don’t feel like looking after their newborn babies, do not like to feed their babies, all these emotional problems can be very nicely dealt with proper selected homeopathic medicines.
