Ever heard of homeopathy? Ever wonder what it was or if it could help you during your pregnancy, labor, or postpartum? Today we'll find out just what homeopathy is, and just what it isn't, and the different remedies we can use to assist us not only in pregnancy and labor, but into motherhood as well.
