Diet Cure Chart:
A. On Rising: A cup of tea with one small biscuit can do a lot towards relieving any tendency to morning sickness. However, if this is not a problem, this may not be needed.
B. Breakfast: A good breakfast is very important, cereal & toast, juice is enough. A glass of fruit juice, orange or grapefruit is very refreshing & a source of vital vitamin C, or a whole fruit may be preferred. Then a helping of a protein food. Eggs cooked as desired food. One slice of toast or piece of crisp bread and idea milk to drink. But if a woman likes tea or coffee to start her day, she can certainly have it.
C. Mid-Morning: A glass of milk or hot milky drink is a good idea this time. If the woman is hungry for something else, then a small piece of crisp bread and cheese is better than a bun or a biscuit.
D. Lunch: If this is the main meal of the day, then a fish, and vegetables. Two vegetables such as peas and spinach or green beans and cabbage, are probably better than one with potatoes. Milk pudding or a helping of cooked or raw fruit should follow; these are better than steady steamed puddings. If this is the light meal of the day, then an egg or meat or fish, with salad makes an excellent meal or perhaps a cheese dish.
E. Mid-Afternoon: A cup of tea & a small piece of toast or crisp bread with perhaps one small piece of cake if your really can’t do without it will be enough but if you can miss the cake so much the better.
F. Dinner: Same as lunch. A light meal, if lunch was the main meal the day.
G. Bed Time: Milky drink will probably be enough.
For Easy Delivery: (90% of Caesarean Surgery can be avoided): Three doses of homoeo medicine pulsatilla-IM rights all abnormal presentations of the child if given before the membrane are ruptured or presenting part firmly engaged. This, caesarean may be avoided. Three weeks prior to the due date of delivery (in case of first child) (One week in case of subsequent deliveries) the fetus (Child in uterus) so far in upright position turns upside down descends further fixing its head in the pelvis (hip bone) & then delivery takes place. Even after the due date, if the child does not turn upside down, or having turned half-way lies horizontally or having turned 180o upside down if it does not descend further engaging its head in the pelvis, doctors would tell `heat floating’ and would wait for a few more days. If nothing happens by then normal delivery is risky & so the doctor opens the abdomen and take out the child. This is called caesarean operation. 90% of caesarean is performed for this reason alone viz., abnormal presentations. When doctor says `head still floating’ give pulsatilla-IM two pills dry on tongue, three doses at 4-5 hours interval and in the next 24 hrs. the child comes to the correct position exactly upside down, descends down further & it would be a normal & safe delivery. All these happen within 24 hours of the first dose of pulsatilla.
NOTE: Pulsatilla is of no use if given a few weeks or months well in advance. Cure is easier, better, quicker & sure than prevention in homoeo medical system. The remedy will act only when the patient has that symptom. When doctor says `head floating’ and so caesarean is the only way, if you are afraid of giving a medicine without yourself being a `doctor’ there is an alternative. Instead of one dram pills of pulsatilla-IM buy one dram `tincture’ of pulsatilla-IM from homoeo shop & just pour one drop of it anywhere on the skin of the patient and repeat this two more times at 4-5 hours interval. All homoeo medicines act by touching the skin and it is as good as taken orally.
Reflexology for Easy Delivery:
A. During the entire period of pregnancy, the lady should roll her feet on a relax roller for 2-3 minutes, twice a day. This general treatment helps to maintain good health.
B. When the labour pains start, the trigger points for the mind & the uterus should stimulated for about a minutes each, with deep, alternating pressure. Moreover the lady should be given a comb to hold in each hand. During each attack of pain, she should prevent the thumb and the finger-tips against the teeth of the comb.
C. As the labour period draws to an end, tie small rubber bands of the big & the second toes of both the feet and remove them after couple of minutes. Continue this process till the baby has been born and `after-births’ have been expelled.

A. General Treatment of the Whole Body: Start with general treatment as described earlier.
B.
