My AWESOME hubby planned a weekend getaway for the 2 of us a couple weekends ago.  We were both soo excited to have a fun no kids weekend, to say the least it was WAAAY over due....like 2 years :) 

Anyways, the day came that we were to leave and I was packing all of our junk (cause I ALWAYS pack for like 5 days when I am only going to be gone 2!!) and my stomach started feeling a little queasy.  I thought to myself.....oh great, this is JUST what I need.  So, I kinda ignored it and hoped it would go away.  Well.....it didn't. 

Hubs came home from work and looked at me and instantly knew I didn't feel good.  I told him it was nothing just my stomach a little upset, we were STILL going :)  So, I went to the bathroom one last time before we headed out!  By the time we got to the gas station about 5 minutes away, I was feeling really yucky!  GREAT....I'm thinking.  I seriously don't want to be sick.  I didn't say anything to my husband while he pumped the gas, I didn't want to ruin anything.

So, I reach behind the seat and grab my oils!  Why hadn't I done this earlier....dummy :)  I didn't have all of my oils with me I had left most at home with my mom for my kids, just in case.

I did have ONGUARD, PEPPERMINT and FRANKINCENSE.  So I start rubbing my belly with all 3 of them then I grab my bottle of water and drop 3 drops of peppermint and start drinking it.  Hubby gets back in the car and can smell the oils and looks at me like uh oh!!  I told him I'm fine, lets get the heck out of town!

So, I continue to rub the 3 oils on my belly and drink my peppermint water.  Maybe 20 minutes later, my queasiness was completely GONE and I felt soo much better.  My stomach never hurt not even a little bit after that!

It is so nice to have something to turn to in moments like this! Otherwise, I don't know how much fun our trip would have been. 

Happy Oiling,

Katie
