Chinese Herbs

Anyone used Chinese herbal medicine while pregnant?

I'm not sure if I should continue using them and feel slightly anxious even though my TCM Dr assures me they're completely safe to use in pregnancy.

I get anxiety... if you couldn't tell!

Thanks in advance :D

Hi tictac. I used chinese herbs to get pregnant and have no troubel in continuing to take them and they are in fact helping me with ms. I will stop about 12 to 14 weeks as its so expensive but will happily continue. When you think about it you body has been full of herbs to conceive and would have been for the first few days before you knew you were pregnant anyway and no harm is done. My ob knows I have been seeing a herbalist and he is quite happy for me to continue as he can see the ehalth benefits.
Best of luck with your pregnancy.

Yup, I went to the accunpuncturist yesterday specifically for treatments to help with morning sickness, and that includes herbs.

Thanks so much for the reassurance.:) Feeling better now. I also got a second opinion on the herbs I'm taking which also helped. I'm seeing my acupuncturists/herbalist practitioner next week, and I will just mention my anxiety to him and go from there.
