Anyone using this. I have been putting loads on, 16 weeks and then thought it has lavender oil in it. Is this safe?

You'll be fine. Midwives use it in birthing pools, can't be that bad.

Unless you bath in a tub full of undiluted lavender oil then don't stress and keep rubbin it in

I'm using it - its for pregnant women so will be fine! Lavender oil is ok in pregnancy too, Neal's Yead use it in their mum to be stuff, and there is no evidence that it is harmful. I use a heated/scented lavender pillow so checked it out a few months ago. I think if there is any concern it is just with the pure oils.

Hiya - am often having those thoughts - I think we all do! I have a panic every now and then about oils and stuff. I don't even use them undiluted but still think, is this product ok etc etc and drive everyone mad asking. I wish I could just let it go but I'm always asking my midwife about different products and anyone I know who might know about it!!!
