Gentle Babies: Essential Oils and Natural Remedies for Pregnancy, Childbirth, Infants and Young Children (10th Anniversary Edition)

This book is filled with tons of great information on baby health and care. So many great remedies using Young Living oils. It’s a great reference book as we go through the first year with our little one.

There is SO MUCH information in this book. I kept this book in my nightstand for YEARS as my babies grew. I used this thing for references almost every day. I was new to essential oils and didn't want to do more harm than good around my family, so this book gave me peace of mind. I am so grateful to have it while my kids were little to make sure and not use certain oils around my kids or have to use unnecessary medication if there was a remedy in this book. I would recommend this book to any young mother interested in essential oils!

I use this book for everything essential oil related! Its my number one go to product when looking for an oil to be able to use safely in my children. The layout is fantastic and it's well organized. More than a reference guide, it gives helpful information such as oils to avoid for children. Some essential oils aren't safe nor recommended for pregnant women, so it goes through all of that as well. They break it down based on who you're using the oils for. Babies, which are referenced as one day old all the way to 2 years old, toddlers and young kids(2-5years old), and then other children 5 and above. It also explains what essential oils are and how to use them. How to benefit from them, how to store them. It really is a must have for all moms of young ones and mothers to be that are essential oils users! Totally recommend this book!

I bought product used for a discounted price. It did have a small tear on back of book but hasn’t hindered what I bought it for This was recommended to me by my therapist and then confirmed by my midwife that they love it. My midwife also went to classes based off this book and loved it. I’ve already made a purchase of several oils I didn’t have. I don’t use young living because I’m not a fan of MLM. I use Revive which has comparison oil combination to YL. I am currently pregnant and I love the recommendations for GBS, hemorrhoids, post partum (which I have depression now so I’ll be utilizing it sooner), and prenium care to help prevent tearing during birth, blood pressure and stretch marks! I’m looking forward to the help

I love this book so much I buy it for my friends just starting out with oils for their families. I have used this book as a reference for three years now. Starting with after my first pregnancy, with my then newborn who is now 3 years old and SO SUPER HEALTHY. This book has been and will continue to be right next to me on my nightstand as I have another baby due any day now! I use this, along with the Essential Oil Reference Book, and a few others, plus an app on my phone RefGuide4EO. I and even took an Aromatherapy Certification Level 1 class to be sure that I have a good foundation for using these oils for our families needs. I believe knowledge is power and finding the right balance for you and your family to live a more holistic, well lifestyle is in your own hands! BUY THIS BOOK!

I appreciated the straightforward introduction to Essential OIls for pregnancy and children. However, there were constant religious overtones in the book that are not at all advertised in the description and product. As I am not a religious person, it felt a bit overbearing to have nearly every chapter start with a Bible verse. I just want to know about oils! But I'll still give it a good rating for the otherwise useful and easy to understand content. Quick read, short book, and good for reference. Recommend updating the Amazon description to make sure buyers know they are also getting some preachy references...

(Wife writing this) Literally gift this book to all my new mama friends that are more naturally minded! It’s organized by alphabetical order, and then broken down to pregnant/nursing, babies, littles and older - so it just takes all the questioning out of it! It’s SUPER informative and shares both options for essential oils (using Young Living) and herbs. So both utilizing plants! 10/10 recommend - and I find myself grabbing for this book often (like multiple times a week).

This has been the most handy book! I have used it so many times when addressing a health issue. Love how it ties in with young living oils.

Easy to read and follow with tons of sage advice. I think the formatting could be nicer, but the content is fantastic.

Good book for YL lovers

Je trouve petit pour le prix. Pas de photos, bcp de références a des blends des HE d'une certaine marque... YLEO. Très informative.
