Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


My son was born in November 2013, and I used Young Living essential oils on him daily. I diffused them in my home each day and he has lived his first year of life without sickness! Other than teething or a little gas from what he might have eaten, my son has been the happiest baby alive!

The essential oils that I have used topically on my son daily:

* DiGize blend clockwise on his tummy before bed nightly.
* One drop of Frankincense under his tongue before bed nightly and an extra drop if we have been exposed to illness.
* Lavender and Peace & Calming blend before naps and bedtime.

The essential oils that I have been diffusing daily:

* Thieves blend from August to March.
* Purification blend from April to July.

The essential oils that I have used for teething:

* Copaiba directly on the gums.
* Clove and Thieves blend for a little more numbing effect on the gums.
* PanAway behind his ears to keep fluid off the ears and to help with teething discomfort.

I applied Thieves blend on my son's feet if we were exposed to sickness or were making a trip to the store. I also nursed him for his first year, and I drank 2 ounces of NingXia Red juice daily.

When my son was able to take a sippy cup at 9 months, I put 1/2 ounce of NingXia Red in his cup, diluted with distilled or filtered water. I started him on table food at 9 months, first with raw fruits and veggies,then I introduced einkorn wheat at 11 months. I also started giving him a sippy cup of almond milk at one year old.

At his one-year checkup, he weighed 21 pounds and was in the 75th percentile for his age. We have been very blessed to have a healthy baby!
