Products You Need To Sail Through Your Pregnancy
Pregnancy means nine months of excitement, anticipation, a tad bit of nervousness and a whole lot of shopping. But, while making a pregnancy shopping list, most mums prioritise maternity clothes, baby clothes, new cribs, strollers, and so on, often overlooking the little luxuries that could make this magical journey not only smoother but much more blissful.
So, in this article, we will go over the inevitable discomforts and problems that you will face throughout the three trimesters and beyond, as well as recommend products that will help ease them and make your life easier.
Morning Sickness
Morning sickness isn't just hurling your stomach's content down the toilet and realising you are pregnant, even though that's what most movies and shows would have you believe. For some, it's an aversion to specific food or smells, while others experience it as bouts of nausea in the first half of the day. But for the unfortunate few, it can strike at any time of the day.
Although very common, affecting around 80% of all pregnant women, it is an annoying symptom that can make the pregnancy miserable. But with our products, you can help banish it.
Products You Need:
- Himalayan salt soak - It contains calming minerals drenched in Spearmint oil known to freshen and calm the senses while easing morning sickness and nausea.
Back Pain, Hemorrhoids and Other Body Aches
Pregnancy brings tons of body pain, including the dreaded lower back pain. The change in posture, hormonal fluctuation, loose ligaments, a shift in the centre of gravity and weight gain contribute to muscle and back pain. The growing belly is also responsible for putting pressure down on the pelvic area, causing swelling and haemorrhoids. But as painful as its sounds, it's nothing a soothing bath can't fix or at least mitigate.
Products You Need:
- Pregnancy bath soak - Handcrafted with the discomforts of pregnancy in mind, this magical soak can bring relief from swelling, irritated muscles and haemorrhoids. Rich in magnesium, it can melt away all kinds of aches and pain in the pregnant body.
- Magnesium spray - By strengthening the body with a healthy dose of magnesium, this all-natural spray can ease pregnancy-related aches and pains.
Fatigue and Insomnia
Even though you are not going up and down the stairs carrying heavy bags, your body is still hard at work on the inside, doing everything it can to sustain a tiny human being, and that's the cause of preggy mamas feeling extreme fatigue. The overtiredness also gets exacerbated by insomnia caused by a variety of reasons. However, you can alleviate both with our relaxing, sleep-inducing products.
Products You Need:
- Pregnancy bath soak - Relaxing in warm waters infused with this sleepy-time concoction can relieve fatigue and aid the body in producing melatonin, the hormone responsible for sleep.
- Magnesium spray - When sprayed into the body, this sleep elixir can get rid of body fatigue and improve sleep by warding off insomnia.
- Room tonic - Our charming hand-blended room tonic can refresh your room and create a relaxing atmosphere ideal for restful sleep.
Leg Cramps and Restless Leg Syndrome
Changes in blood circulation and magnesium deficiency can lead to leg cramps and restless leg syndrome in expecting mums. Magnesium deficiency can also manifest as nausea, body aches, fatigue and insomnia. So when the body falls short of producing enough of this mineral, it becomes necessary to introduce it from an outside source in order to keep those pesky symptoms at bay.
Products You Need:
- Magnesium spray - We have made this product to safely restore magnesium levels in your body during pregnancy and beyond. Just a few spritzes can soothe restless legs and take away cramps and pains.
Stretch Marks and Other Skin Conditions
Stretch marks can form on the belly, thigh, arms, and boobs as the skin stretches and tightens to accommodate the growing baby. Although something to be proud of, those love stripes can be a nuisance at times, and it's okay to want to get rid of them, especially since treating them also means getting relief from the accompanying dryness and itchiness. Dry skin can also be caused by hormonal changes occurring in the body. But, fret not! We have got the perfect duo of products to tackle your skin issues.
Products You Need:
- Body polish - Himalayan Pink Salt soaked in a soothing blend of botanical oils makes it the perfect exfoliant for intense hydration and repairment of the skin, leaving it smooth and stretch mark-free.
- Belly oil - Woven together from five powerful oils, this miracle elixir naturally encourages cell regeneration, soothes skin irritations and heals stretch marks. Its moisturising formula will help you get a glowing belly.
Breast Engorgement and Nipple Pain
Towards the end of pregnancy, when the milk starts coming in, many mums-to-be experience pain from engorged breasts and cracked nipples. To relieve engorgement pain, we recommend putting cabbage leaves in your bra. Unfortunately, we don't sell those, but for your nipple pain, we have got you covered.
Products You Need:
- Nipple balm - It is a smooth blend of nourishing shea butter, beeswax, and healing oils that melts on the skin delivering long-lasting moisture and relief to sore and cracked nipples. Plus! It's cruelty-free and 100% natural.
Postpartum Healing
Pregnancy does not end with the third trimester; there is also a fourth trimester known as the postpartum period. Yes, you are no longer physically pregnant, but your body is still in recovery mode. And it needs all the help it can get to heal and rejuvenate. Psst... we have got something for your postpartum journey too.
Products You Need:
- Postpartum sitz soak - This herbal soak contains soothing botanicals and healing minerals that work magic during the postpartum period. It can aid the healing process by restoring physical and emotional wellness in postpartum mamas.
- Nipple balm - Our balm is extra beneficial for breastfeeding mums since it is not only soothing for sore and cracked nipples, but it's also 100% natural and lanolin-free. With Nipples, nursing mums will never have to worry about wiping the balm off before feeding their bubs.
*Both during pregnancy and postpartum, you can keep your little one and yourself safe and germ-free with the help of our hand sanitiser.
Conclusion
Our little luxuries are lovingly made to make your mornings nausea-free, your days pain-free, and your nights stress-free. Go ahead and buy them all to achieve ultimate relaxation in mind and body and to make this beautiful phase of your life even more beautiful.
