    I am pretty sure that as long as you keep such things out of reach you should be fine to have eucaluptus oil in the house and to use it too

    Thanks elliskirsty. I know inhaling or drinking eucalyptus oil is dangerous. I plan to store it (and the other oils) locked up with our cleaning products. I'd like to start using it for some of my general cleaning and I think so long as you don't put it in a spray bottle and squirt it around to be breathed in then it would be okay.

    All essential oils are toxic when ingested.

    Then again, so is bleach and floor cleaner, I know which I would prefer to use to clean my house. Again, common sense and responsibility must be taken.

    I lock my natural cleaners away just like I would any other cleaner. I also make sure I don't just "spray them around" so they mist.

    Nappy news is that my customs are a tad held up because a second cut of material is hard to get hold of. I love the fact the maker keeps me updated!

    quick question with the use of oils in washing, (this may be baby brain) but when u say put it in the rinse do u mean the rinse cycle on the machine when its almost done or when u r doing a pre-rinse before washing? we will prob be needing this cos our yard doesnt get much sun so most stuff is dried inside...

    j- very excited but seriously about to die of impatience!! but at worst i have to wait til friday, which is when my waters will be broken if he hasnt arrived by then. we have 3 clothes airers thanks to our washing line being in the most stupid place ever but not having anywhere to relocate it too. i think the last trimester has gone the quickest for me, hopefully for u 2, is jamie confused/curious at ur growing tummy or not old enough to get it yet?

    limeslice- ok lol sounds easy oooh ticker!! baby on the way!! congrats!

    no more fluff for me until after bubs has arrived and has put some chub on (not that thats going to be an issue if he takes after his daddy who looked like a mini buddha as a bub). we've decided to go with disposables for the 1st little bit, spesh since DF has never changed a nappy b4, disposible or cloth....ever.....so we are going to ease him into it....
