USEFUL GIFTS FOR A PREGNANT MOM
During the first trimester the changes in the body are hardly noticeable, so there is no need to buy any new product. But after the second and third trimester, when the changes are already evident, perhaps these products can help make pregnancy easier and more comfortable.
– SECOND TRIMESTER:
During the second quarter the most interesting purchases are:
- WAIST EXTENSION: During the first months, there are women who do not feel comfortable trying maternity clothes. It is normal, because they still do not have much tripita. But little by little the changes make the pants tighten when sitting or walking and end up unbuttoning a button to be comfortable. Right now a solution is the waist extension that allows you to use mom's favorite pants or skirt and that it is always fastened! There are pregnant women who use this product throughout pregnancy without the need to buy pregnant clothes, because the only change they notice is the growth of the abdomen.
- MATERNITY CLOTHES: At this stage of the life of the mother the best are the combinations of wide clothes. It is not recommended to wear tight pants or t-shirts so as not to put pressure on the abdominal area. The favorite garments of pregnant women are wide, elastic dresses and leggings. After delivery, it still takes a few months for physical recovery, so these clothes continue to be used until a few months pass.
- MICROFIBER FASTENERS ADAPTING TO BREAST GROWTH During the second, third trimester of pregnancy, your bra may start to bother you. If they are underwired bras, you will notice that the part of the contour squeezes you, or the cup begins to get small. There are sports style microfiber bras that fit your body, are elastic and support the chest, they will make you comfortable during pregnancy and will also serve you while breastfeeding. There are sizes XS / SM / L, XL-XXL, and two basic colors available in black and white. There are more low-cut (in case your clothes are more open), padded (so that your nipple is not marked) or convertible to a normal bra for when you stop breastfeeding.
- PREGNANCY PANTIES: Some pregnant women choose not to wear lingerie designed for their condition. We believe that, at the moment when the gut is evident, wearing intimates for maternity will help you feel more comfortable because:
- They hold the belly. Not only during pregnancy, but after childbirth it will help you hold the muscles of the abdomen that will continue to relax for a few months.
- Do not put pressure on the inguinal or abdominal area.
- They are usually made of cotton fabrics
In addition there is also the modality thong, which can be a good ally for the moments when you dress with dresses or clothes that fit that area.
- ADAPTER FOR THE CAR BELT DURING PREGNANCY: There are many myths about the use of the belt, among them, that it is not compulsory for a pregnant woman to wear a seat belt if she has a medical certificate stating that she is in
status and when it will end. This information is completely false and can be harmful. A pregnant woman should wear a seat belt like any other passenger. During the last months of gestation, due to the size of the abdomen, the use of the belt can be annoying and in case of a frontal impact it can cause trauma to the baby. To avoid such problems, a special adapter has been designed for pregnant women whose function is to move the lower belt strap below the abdomen without losing its effectiveness in the event of an accident.
There are three modalities:
- Cushion adaptable to vehicles without isofix
- Cushion adaptable to vehicles with Isofix
- Vest adaptable to the seat belt
- THIRD TRIMESTER:
In the third quarter the changes are very visible and now there are products that solve more than one situation.
- NURSING PAD: As we have already mentioned, the position that least affects the baby and the mother is on the left side with the legs flexed and a cushion between the knees. During the third trimester finding the comfortable sleeping position is more difficult and the nursing pad will help you to lie on your side without the hip moving forward and
keeping the body in the ideal position. You can also use it during pregnancy and later in lactation. Although there are several types of nursing cushions, if you want to use it at this time, the cushion that can be useful is the SOFT OR MOLDABLE
- BELTS-PREGNANCY BELT: Towards the last days of pregnancy, the belly may be too heavy for the back to support, and back, lumbar and pelvic pain may appear. The benefits of the girdles are: They alleviate the back and lumbar pains produced by the weight, help to give stability to the back and reduce the pressure of the baby in the pelvic area and pubes since they serve as support. It is important to use the girdles that are designed for use in pregnancy, otherwise it can be harmful.
And to these gifts you can add a voucher for a whole day of rest. You will surely appreciate it! 🙂
