Merry Meet All

I have recently just found out I am pregnant and I am wondering if anyone has any tips on which types of insence or candles would be best meditating with and also any herbal remedes for keeping healthy during pregnancy?

I have quite a stressful job and really need to be able to come home and rid myself of all the negative energy and stress of the day but not so sure on the best way to do it.

Many congratulations, Little Doll! Such happy news, I am thrilled for you!
I absolutely agree with all that Althara advises, consult a qualified herbalist prior to using any herbal preparation, although many herbal/fruit tes are delicious, and soothing to drink, the kind you can get in the supermarket are fine. Do not buy loose teas from market vendors and the like, anything could be in them.
Folic acid is essential for your baby's wellbeing, also try to gain iron from dietary sources, such as red meat, lentils, cress, beans, and green veg- better to get it from diet if you can, the body will absorb it more efficiently. If you must take iron supplements, swallow them with orange juice, as the citric acid will aid absorption.
I would not recommend using incense in pregnancy, as the smoke can increase your carbon monoxide level significantly, this replaces oxygen in the bloodstream and is detrimental to the baby in a similar fashion to smoking ( although minus the 4,000 chemicals contained in cigarettes!)
As Althara recommends, relaxing music is good, I myself love Medwynn Goodalls' Perfect Sleep- I haven't heard the end of the cd, so it definitely works!!
All in all, enjoy your pregnancy, keep active and well as best you can, and if you have any concerns whatsoever do not hesitate to contact your midwife, she is there to look after you!
