Be a bit careful because strong smells can trigger severe morning sickness or vomiting. I tried using it for a headache and the strong smell made me throw up instantly. If you are using it, try a very mild inhalation first.
Beta, eucalyptus oil is very strong, so use it very carefully. For cold, you can put a drop in hot water and take steam, that is very safe. Avoid putting it directly on the belly or body.
Humare yahan toh sardi mein thoda sa nilgiri tel (eucalyptus) room mein chhidak dete hain, bohot aaram milta hai. Par ise kabhi bhi skin pe direct mat lagana aur na hi peena. Bas halki si khushboo hi kaafi hai.
When you've gone through so much to get pregnant, even a simple oil makes you pause. Inhaling a little bit of eucalyptus oil for steam is safe, but please do what makes you feel comfortable. If you feel any doubt, skip it and ask your doctor.
Yes, it is safe for inhalation if you have a cold, but never ingest it or apply it directly on your skin without a carrier oil. I used to put two drops on a handkerchief during my second pregnancy. It is a great natural way to clear congestion.
Please run it by your gynecologist before using any essential oils, as some can trigger uterine contractions or sensitivities. It's always better to get professional clearance even for natural things to keep your baby safe.
Using a drop in your steam inhaler or office desk diffuser is perfectly fine to clear a blocked nose. I didn't have time for long home remedies, so a quick steam with this oil worked wonders. Just keep the quantity very small.
