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
