The life hacker shares useful tips to make 9 months of waiting for the baby as easy as possible.
1. Rest your legs
Pregnant women often have swelling of their legs, especially in the last stages. To relax, soak your feet in a room temperature tonic for 15–20 minutes. Quinine will reduce inflammation, while pleasant coolness and bubbles will relieve swelling.
2. Do not tighten the belt on the trousers
If your pants are already small, but you don't feel like buying others, just fasten them with a hair tie, not a button. Of course, this option is not suitable for publication, but for home it is.
3. Use a swimming ring for relaxation
For some, not lying on your stomach for nine months is a real torture. You can solve the problem with an inflatable swimming ring: put it on the bed and lie on top.
4. Use kinesio tape
This elastic adhesive cotton tape is often used in sports medicine and rehabilitation to improve circulation, relieve pain, protect muscles from overload, and protect and stabilize joints. But for the same purposes it can be successfully used during pregnancy.
5. Cool your underwear
If you are hot all the time and even a cool shower does not help, try cooling your laundry. Just put it in the freezer for a few minutes.
6. Do yoga for pregnant women
If possible, find yoga classes near your home. Alternatively, search the internet for suitable exercises. One of the most useful and enjoyable is the "candle". In this exercise, you need to lie on your shoulder blades, keeping your legs upright. A lighter option is to lean your feet against a wall or cabinet while lying on your back.
7. Make your own belly band
Take an old jersey or top and cut off the top. Wear a bandage underneath sweaters and blouses that have become short to help cover your belly.
8. Increase the size of your bra
When the bra starts to press on the skin, sew additional loops to the closure. After pregnancy, you can gently rip them off.
9. Wear a bandage
If your child is pushing hard and hurting you, wear a chilled harness to relieve discomfort.
10. Use your belly as a support
Place popcorn and sweets on top of it when lying down and watching TV or just relaxing. You can even put on small plates, but not too hot.
