    Question Is this oil safe to use?

    So DH is going to start doing the perineal massage on me tonight (oh joy ) and he went to the health store today and the lady there recommended apricot kernel oil. Is this safe to use for this reason?

    Thanks !

    I bought some to use as a carrier oil for my clary sage and it says suitable for internal and external use, so I'd say so - you can put it on your salad as easily as you can massage with it, so it must be pretty mild Also, in a few sites I have read about caring for a damaged perineum post-birth, it mentions that it's a good oil to use with other things added, so going by that, I reckon it's fine.

    It's great as a belly massage oil, btw - leaves your belly glowy and sooo soft and smooth

    No problem. Just remember - there are other ways to do perineum massage and stretching that involve your hubby, too ...at this stage of the game, you might be happier with the original one you had in mind
