    Hi Melissa. I just happened onto your channel, and I’m so glad. I used to have an herb book but for the life of me I can’t find it. I have used various herbs in pregnancy. One of the herbs my midwife recommended was red raspberry leaf tea throughout my pregnancies. I took some other herbs mainly in capsules. I can attest that red raspberry leaf tea helped to strengthen my uterus in preparation for labor. I don’t know if I would’ve had short labors anyway but, drinking red raspberry leaf tea throughout my pregnancies helped tremendously. Despite all but one of my doctors, I was warned that I would have horrendously long labors. My pelvic measurements were quite small. However, the rundown of my labors, beginning to end, is : Baby #1 : 5 hours (pushed 2 hours) weight 8 lbs 12 oz (home-birth). Baby #2 : 2 hours (pushed only 2 times) weight 10 lbs 0 oz (home-birth) midwife didn’t make it in time. Baby #3 : 4 hours (pushed 3 hours) weight 8 lbs 7 oz (hospital birth with vac-assist due to asynclitic presentation). I began pushing 1 hour into this labor. If his head had been aligned properly I likely would’ve had him in 1 hour. I didn’t require suturing with any of my births….we used hot compresses to bring blood to the perineum to help it stretch better and reduce tearing. I had only slight superficial tearing with 1st and 3rd babies. Incredibly, my 2nd birth (with the 10 lb “Sumo Wrestler” baby), I had an intact perineum! So, yeah, I’m pretty sure the herbs I took in pregnancy and labor helped immensely. With my 1st baby, we had our 6-week checkup, and the same doctor who told me I would be in labor for hours and hours, asked the the labor went. I don’t think he believed me. I told him “Well, I have my midwife’s labor notes right here. Would you like to read them?” The look on his face was like, yeah, lady…..dig your butcher knife in a little more. He weighed my baby and mumbled “this can’t be right.This scale probably needs to be recalibrated.” So, he got another baby scale, the weight was exactly the same. I don’t think he liked that very much. I looked him right in the face and said “See, doctor, sometimes doctors CAN be wrong, can’t they?” I definitely don’t think he liked that either.

    Awesome video, thank you so much! I would love to be half as knowledgeable as you concerning herbs. From growing to making oils, tinctures, tea’s, etc. Yes please, have more!!!!



  30. KC -THE OTHER ONE on June 7, 2022 at 9:16 pm

    I plan on incorporating medicinal herbs into my balcony container garden. Your video helped because I am looking for plants that will thrive in mostly/partial shade. It appears stinging nettle is one.



  31. Hannah Jones on June 7, 2022 at 9:17 pm

    I’ve just found your video while searching for some ideas and guidance, having just thought that it might be really nice, to turn a small patch of gravel covered ground at the front of my bungalow property, into a small herb garden-cum-social space, where one or two neighbours, friends, family, might like to come to sit, have coffee and chat. It’s a sun trap and can get very hot, but also catches a lot of prevailing wind, and is on the crossroads of our oft times quite busy housing estate. But it’s nestled between two walls of the house, and one wall or the garage, and I really think it has some potential for such a development. Your video has inspired me further, and I will talk to a friendly gardening neighbour, who I’m sure would love to involve herself, so I’ve written this comment for general interest, and to thank you for your very nice video. Estate’s such as this one, are boring places, especially out front, where almost everyone has created plain old parking spaces for several vehicles, none of which sights is conducive to inviting conversation or general interest, sadly, but rather the opposite. Maybe we can change that here, albeit only a little bit🙏🏻🙏🏻👏💖💖💖



  32. Karen Ramsey on June 7, 2022 at 9:19 pm

  35. Eliza Simms on June 7, 2022 at 9:24 pm

    I am really interested in having a serious medical plant garden. For all of the medical needs. Such as swelling, things to help with infections, cold flu, stomach problems, tooth pain, body pain, anxiety, stress, ECT, I especially want to use a plant that has the properties of asperin or Ibprophen. The works. But I Don’t even know where to begin…. I feel a little overwhelmed. But I want to do it asap.



  36. Sol Massages on June 7, 2022 at 9:25 pm

    I love this video! You talk slow enough to understand and retain the information. Thank you for in depth descriptions but not over my head!

  38. Mike Finley on June 7, 2022 at 9:31 pm

    Medicinal herbs are a invaluable aspect of gardening. Big pharma is not the best to rely on yet there is much to learn and some known but hidden for manipulation of profit. Even a apartment dwellers with a balcony can grow a few potted plants. I recommend growing something as it connects people to the majestic aspect of creation. Ah, stinging nettles, full of nutrients. I wondered if you caught onto nettles so good for you. I’m listening as I write. "Northern Exposure," … When I was a teen a woman teaching school who was a writer seeking to break in and said she was working on a big project asked me to do some labor work for her. She purchased a small home in west Seattle and I did some hefty landscaping. I was asked to accompany her to Rosylan Washington where she owned a bar to get a rolltop desk from it’s basement. Cutting to the chase she wrote the old tv series Northern Exposure under a psudonym. Let’s just say she was interesting, never boring.



  39. Mike McLean on June 7, 2022 at 9:31 pm

    Yes Melissa, I am very interested in learning about herb growing an uses an natural remedies,thanks so much!😊
