Chamomile Essential Oil

Chamomile essential oil — both Roman and German varieties — is considered safe for breastfeeding mothers when used diluted (1–2% in a carrier oil) or diffused. It has gentle calming and anti-inflammatory properties. Chamomile essential oil is very different from chamomile tea — it's far more concentrated, so always dilute before skin application.

Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
