Any aromatherapists in the house?

I've been looking at pregnancy and labour aromatherapy blends which all seem so expensive. I have quite a library of oils myself, so was thinking of blending my own.
Can anyone recommend a pregnancy-safe recipe I could try out? It's a bath blend and maybe a massage oil for labour I'm looking for.

I would stick to something very simple a few drops of lavender / camomile in triple quantities of oil eg 5 lav drops 15 mls oil. there will be enough to relax you without it being overpowering. Ylang ylang and rose oils are very feminine and produce feelings of harmony and calm also so for labour maybe 4 drops lav/cam + 1 or 2 drops yl or rose.
I just put 4 drops of lav in my bath to relax me , after the birth try lav and tea tree to help sooth your bits and pieces :-)
good luck BB- oh I am a qual Aromatherapist btw
