3 Tips for making your Pregnancy more Comfortable

May 22, 2018 by Miriam Dunning Leave a Comment

Ask any mother who’s had multiple births, and they’ll all tell you the same thing: pregnancy gets easier each time around. However, for new expecting mothers, pregnancy can be a challenge. And it’s perfectly normal, bringing life into this world is hard work. However, there are many ways that you can make your pregnancy much more enjoyable. Here are a few tips that you can apply to make the whole experience easier.

Learn How to Listen to Your Body

Knowing what your body needs is important when you’re pregnant. Certain nutrients are not just essential to your own well being, but your baby’s as well. Fortunately, our body has a way of telling us when something is missing and it’s possible to know when you’re deficient if you’re attentive.

Nutritional deficiencies can have a much bigger impact on your pregnancy than you can imagine and are responsible for a large portion of difficulties you may experience. Something as simple as being dehydrated or missing important nutrients and minerals like healthy fats, iron or calcium could throw your whole system out of whack. Making sure you have the right nutrients will help prevent things like fatigue, headaches, morning sickness, leg cramps and even external issues like varicose veins for instance.

If you want your pregnancy to be as smooth as possible, you could add supplements like calcium capsules, cod liver oil, magnesium lotion or spray and iron when needed. Dried greens and seaweeds can also help.

Consider Buying a Belly Band

Pregnancy belly bands can be a literal lifesaver during the final months of your pregnancy. They were made specifically to provide additional abdominal and lower back support during pregnancy. They can prevent things like Sacroiliac joint pain and round ligament pain and can reduce discomfort when performing physical activities.

Maternity belly support belts can improve your posture and prevent your lower back from overextending. They can also be worn after your pregnancy to help you deal with decreased core strength.

Be Active

While it may not always be easy, it’s always better to be active when you’re pregnant. Something as simple as going for a brisk two mile walk in the morning could help you reduce the risk for hemorrhage during birth. It will also make birth much easier and will allow you to recover faster.

The kind of exercise you partake in is up to you. Ideally, you should avoid any contact sport or any type of exercise that puts too much pressure on your belly. However, if you were able to perform any activity before you were pregnant, listen to your body and continue with your regular routine until your body tells you to stop. Swimming in particular is one of the best forms of exercises you can do while pregnant and one of the safest as well.

Conclusion

If you follow these few simple tips, you should be able to have a much more pleasant pregnancy. Just remember to give your body the nutrients it needs and stay active to facilitate recovery and labor.
