Cod-liver oil--Table spoon of it

This will induce the baby and going on all the moaning and groaning that my Missus did, that pain will far exceed the pain of Toothache

put it this way a while ago she got an absess in the same tooth and was in hospital for 2 days it was that bad, every time she has trouble the dentist refuses to remove saying its salvagable, he has promised last time would be the last so hopefully she will lose it this time. She cant physically touch it or she gets shooting pains down her face and neck saying that shes just got outta the bath and its back to a dull ache so hopefully its the antibiotics fingers fookin crossed

NO!!! Some oils are NOT to be used when you are pregnant, clove is one of them!

Basil, Camphor, Cedarwood, Clarysage, Clove, Cinnamon, Fennel (first 4 months), Hyssop, Juniper, Marjoram, Myrrh, Peppermint(first 4 months), Rosemary(first 4 months), Sage and Thyme

The antibiotics usually take about a day to kick in. So if she now feels a dull pain, I'd say they're getting there. A warm / cold pack on the cheek where the tooth is will help. So will crushed ice (numbs the area).

Tell her to hang in there, she should feel better very soon!!
Hope all goes well with the baby too..
