I have used Lavender Oil for years to help with headaches. It worked beautifully during my pregnancy to help with aches and I still use it to this day.
Peppermint is a very concentrated oil that should be closely monitored when you take it. Mix it with something if you can and use Peppermint oil to help with nausea. I took some on our first cruise and used it with two kids with no further problems.
