Weigh In

I went to see my Naturopath again today... drum roll  please.....


I don't need to change anything, my blood pressure is PERFECT, and I have only put on 5 - 1-2-3-4-5 - 5 pounds!!!

People, I'm 40, this is my 6th child, my 13th pregnancy.. and I'm in EXCELLENT HEALTH!  And the medical people, the all  really strongly advised me to NEVER get pregnant again, said it would be too dangerous, said I'd die.. they said this after Janney too.... I had a Dr in 2002 say I needed a hysterectomy!! Can you imagine if I had consented?

If you have a medical condition and you are not happy with how it's being managed, DO NOT GIVE UP. Keep searching, there is another way.

Her one concern was.. what if the baby is breech. I told her I had no concern birthing a breech baby. She's now not concerned because I seem to know what to do. She's planning a little tincture, homeopathic kit for me for after the birth and will give me instructions on how to use each of the items if this or that situation comes up.

We did talk about other stuff, like Stuart's psoriasis, Asher's eczema etc.. and we're going to work on reducing wheat, and increasing other grains in our diet. I won't be able to eliminate wheat for a while, I have tonnes of food items with wheat in them, but, I figure, if I learn to incorporate the new grains, I can slowly phase out wheat over time. We're not in a crucial situation, no one has Celiac disease here, just some mild allergies.  She said that my taking better care of my pregnant body will help this baby not have to deal with such allergies.  That's encouraging!

Sombra,

I am glad you are doing so well.

[ If you have a medical condition and you are not happy with how it's being managed, DO NOT GIVE UP.] I need that encouragement today. I am feeling every bit of my 44 years and then some.

I am rejoicing in your good health! Good health did not just one day arrive on your doorstep though, you have pursued it for years. You have worked hard, made changes and have used wisdom. So, hard work pays off!

I agree with reducing wheat to deal with psoriasis. We did this with Savannah and the results were very good.

Love you!

Mar. 6, 2008 - This is the right place for my question

Posted by bubbebobbie
Since this is a health post, I was wonderng what you use instead of anti-biotics or if you use anti-biotics? I used to be more aware of homephathics, but I haven't been a hippie for a lone time no. (Just a confession) So although there is no treatment for Tirzah's HSP we have discovered the right amount of Omega-3 has been very helpful. When she has bad episodes like this week, drinking aloe -Vera Juice and taking Masrhmallow clears up the HSP reaction fairly well. Yesterday she had another allergic reaction to her antibiotics. So I am wondering if you have an alternatitive?

I loved your son's post. As retired military I am so glad the troops in war or in peace are getting prayed for by the citizens they protect.

Because of Jesus, Bobbie

Antibiotics... We do - very sparingly -use medical antibiotics, but the last 2-3 times we have, I've found them useless - not achieving the desired result.

We do use garlic and colloidal silver as our major healing elements.

ear infections are healed by garlic oil put in the ear. General infections are healed either by consuming raw garlic, or taping garlic to the sole of the foot for about 15 minutes (careful, the garlic burns the skin, so not too long on there - especially on tender baby skin)

Colloidal Silver is our other remedy, we have a generator and make it easily. for general health we use about 1 oz a day, but in times of illness, we use 1 oz several times a day. I have a friend who recommends 1 oz every 20 minutes, as she says it's cleaned out of the system fairly easily. Silver is what was used in olden days to keep milk fresh. Don't let the "blue man" on the news recently scare you, that guy is a fool, he's drinking a quart of colloidal silver daily and rubbing it on his skin.. moderation people, moderation. If colloidal silver was such a scary thing, you'd see lots of "blue people" because lots of people use it.. this "blue man" is misusing it! The general concern with colloidal silver is called Agragaria (or something like that) and it turns you grey - not smurf blue
