Prevention of Pregnancy Complaints

Ipecac.

Ipecac Shrub

Cephaelis ipecacuanha

A Portuguese friar living in Brazil in the early 17th century first recorded the medicinal properties of ipecacuanha, a traditional remedy used by Brazilian Indians. Its name is from the Portuguese for "sick-making plant", since in large doses it causes nausea, vomiting, and even cardiac failure. In conventional medicine, drugs derived from the root are used to loosen phlegm in the respiratory tract and to induce vomiting. Ipecac. was proved by Hahnemann in 1805 and is used especially to relieve persistent nausea.

Irritability is common in those who respond best to Ipecac., and children suited to the remedy may scream and howl. When unwell, these people can be capricious and hard to please, asking for things and then changing their minds. Illness can prompt them to become morose, depressed, impatient, and contemptuous of those around them.

Physical symptoms generally linked with Ipecac. are persistent nausea, with or without vomiting, and a tendency to hemorrhage. Despite any vomiting, the tongue is clean and unfurred. There is often oversensitivity to movement and a constant feeling of being hot on the inside and cold on the outside. These symptoms appear rapidly, are generally intermittent, and may also include coughing fits and breathing difficulties. Ipecac. is also used for headaches, migraines, and gynecological problems linked to the general tendency to bleed very easily.

Uses

The homeopathic remedy is made from the root, the most potent part of the plant. The root is dried and then ground into a coarse powder, which is diluted either in milk sugar to be used as a dry substance or in a water- and-alcohol base. Both preparations are weakened to a nontoxic level.
Ipecac. is an excellent remedy for nausea and vomiting. Physical symptoms helped include: persistent nausea with a pale face and lips; cold or hot sweats and clamminess; nausea associated with migraines; nausea that is not relieved by vomiting; and vomiting that is worse when bending over. Stomach ailments accompanied by a weak pulse, lack of thirst, fainting, and constant saliva production are also helped by Ipecac. It is effective for breathing difficulties, such as asthma, spasmodic coughing that leads to choking, and a need to cough and vomit at the same time.
Profuse bleeding with loss of bright red blood that is slow to clot; for example, in a nosebleed, is also helped by this remedy.
A key feature of all ailments is that the tongue feels clean, not thickly coated. The person may feel continually cold on the outside and hot on the inside. Those who need this remedy are anxious, and fear death.

Nausea and vomiting - persistent nausea that is not necessarily relieved by vomiting is a key symptom associated with Ipecac. There is a bloated, swollen feeling in the abdomen, and cramping, colicky pain that may be most severe around the navel, while the stomach may seem to "flop" inside the abdomen. Vomit consists mostly of undigested food or bile. Belching and excess saliva production are common, the mouth remains moist, and there is little thirst. The tongue tends to be clean and unfurred.
If gastroenteritis is the cause, there may be copious, watery, greenish-colored diarrhea that contains undigested food. If the skin is itchy, with sweat forming on the brow, then the symptom picture may indicate gallbladder problems.

Coughs and wheezing - an irritating, dry, rattling, loose cough, usually triggered by warm, humid weather. Breathing may be wheezy and asthmatic, and the chest may feel constricted. Although little phlegm may be produced, coughing may be violent and accompanied by nosebleeds, retching, gagging, nausea, vomiting, or coughing up of blood. These symptoms may be indicative of conditions such as bronchitis, whooping cough, and childhood asthma.

Migraine - migraine pain in the whole head, with severe nausea and vomiting. The pain extends to the face, teeth, and tongue. The face is pallid, or blue around the lips and eyes.

Gynecological problems - extremely heavy menstrual flow possibly with nausea and fainting. Between menstrual periods there may be irregular spotting or a sudden, gushing flow from the uterus of bright red blood that proves slow to clot. Ipecac. may also be prescribed for morning sickness, for hemorrhaging in connection with a displaced placenta, and for bleeding and nausea in the aftermath of a miscarriage.

Natural Cures for Pregnancy Symptoms

How to Alleviate Common Aliments
-- By Antigone Arthur, Health & Pregnancy Writer

Despite all the joys motherhood brings, pregnancy itself can sometimes be challenging. Pregnant women the world over endure similar symptoms. Among the more common ailments include morning sickness, constipation, heartburn, and fatigue.

Because there are so few medications that can be taken safely during pregnancy, many moms-to-be turn to alternative remedies to ease their suffering. There are actually many natural cures available that can relieve even the most severe complaints.

Morning Sickness
Typically morning sickness only causes trouble the first trimester, but some unlucky moms experience nausea their entire pregnancy. What can you do?

• Cut out excessively fatty and spicy foods.
• Avoid strong odors such as coffee, meat and garlic.
• Eat several small meals instead of three large ones.
• Try acupressure; wear sea bands three-quarters of an inch down your wrist in between tendons.
• Infuse bathwater with grapefruit, orange, mandarin or lime aromatherapy oils.
• Try ginger. If you don't like the taste of it raw, try ginger tea or invest in some all natural ginger ale at your local health food store.
• Take 1.9 mg (micrograms) of vitamin B-6 (Pyridoxine). (Women require 1.6 mg of B-6 daily. However, daily intake of over 250 mg can lead to nerve damage. Pregnant women should not take more than 1.9 mg, and nursing moms should take no more than 2.0 due to harm that pyridoxine can have on the developing fetus. As a water-soluble vitamin, B-6 must be replenished each day. Any B-6 not used is eliminated in urine, thus new sources are always needed.)

Help with (morning) sickness:


1. Get plenty of rest. If you are highly stressed, it is likely that your morning sickness will be exacerbated. You might also use a maternity body pillow to properly support your back and stomach, helping ensure you get a good night's sleep.



2. Eat small portions of food throughout the day. By keeping something in your stomach, you may reduce your nausea.



3. Limit your time on your personal computer. The rapid flickering of the computer display has been tied to morning sickness.



4. Exercise. If you spend your days lying in bed, you're more likely to feel lousy. So, be sure to get up and move, particularly during the early stages of pregnancy.



5. Consider drinking some apple cider vinegar in water, with honey added. This concoction can help calm a queasy stomach.



6. Eat some applesauce. The dish can soothe your stomach, making morning sickness go away.



7. Consider a helping of Asian pears or citrus fruit. Both are known to limit the effects of morning sickness.



8. Eat a baked potato. It's bland-yet highly nutritious. Or, eat some bananas at breakfast. The fruit's potassium may help prevent morning sickness.



9. Wear comfortable and non-restrictive maternity clothing. Clothes that are restrictive around the waist can lend to your nausea.



10. Consider using children's vitamins instead of regular pre-natal vitamins. You might find them to be far easier to digest.



Other recommendations include a peanut butter sandwich with honey, decaffeinated cola, or cereal with ice-cold milk. Another great option is to try to distract yourself. If you're focusing on your morning sickness, you're more likely to be ill for greater periods of time. So, when you start to feel queasy, consider watching television, doing a puzzle, playing cards or reading a good book. Such activities can also relax you, making you less likely to succumb to morning sickness.

My doc gave me reglin for morning sickness, ceck with your doktor, Because if you have a stomach infection it will be harmful to the baby if you dont see a doc. My 16 month old, along with 6 people in the er just tonight had stomach flus. Goto the er, or your doc. soon!

The cold and fever needs treated by tylenol at very least, remember not to take anything like mucusin or over the counter cold meds, they can cause brain damage, some can even kill a baby as far along as 8 months because of OVER dose through the placenta. The doc is the best hope.

Quoting AmaliaD:
