Sending Love to Chrissy Teigan and John Legend. Homeopathic Remedies for Miscarriage.

Supermodel Chrissy Teigen and her husband John Legend shared heartbreaking news this week after Teigen suffered pregnancy complications and lost their baby.

Teigen was about halfway through her pregnancy. Earlier this week, she opened up about complications and then overnight posted on Instagram that they lost the baby, writing: “We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before.”

Miscarriage is fairly common in the 1st trimester with approximately 10% of ending in pregnancy loss. In the second trimester, this drops to about 2% of pregnancies. The pain of carrying a baby to 20 weeks, feeling it move inside you, and that by now you have shared your happy news with friends and family, is even more devastating.

I thought I would share some of the homeopathic remedies that help heal the mind, body, and soul after the grief of a miscarriage.

The first remedy straight after a miscarriage is ACONITE 200c for shock, this can be taken by both you and your partner. If your body is physically hurting then include ARNICA 30c these can be taken alternately throughout the day as needed.

For acute grief, like that experienced after a miscarriage, IGNATIA 200 is the first remedy to consider, this is where you alternate from crying hysterically to holding in your feelings, with outbursts of anger.

NATRUM MUR is indicated after a miscarriage if you want to be left alone, it is deep silent grief, where you dwell on what has happened, and unable to express your feelings. You may feel that you need to cry but are unable to. You may feel guilty or angry about what has happened, and are worse from consolation, “No hugs, please leave me alone.”

The final remedy is PULSATILLA, this remedy is indicated when the loss leaves someone feeling very alone, in an emotional, weepy, and distressed state. Someone in need of Pulsatilla will seek comfort, sympathy, and support from others, with a strong need for fresh air.

I commend Chrissy Teigan and John Legend for sharing their heartbreaking story, hopefully helping others to open up and share their own stories of grief and loss in their lives.
