🌿 Reflexology for Pregnancy – Supporting You Every Step of the Way 🤰✨

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it can also come with its challenges. Reflexology is a gentle therapy that works with your body to ease discomfort and promote balance.

Here’s how it can support you:

💆‍♀️ Back Pain & SPD/Pelvic Pain – Helps release tension, improve circulation, and ease discomfort in your lower back and pelvis.
⚡ Sciatica Relief
🤢 Nausea & Vomiting – supports digestion to help manage morning sickness.
😌 Deep Relaxation – Reduces stress hormones, promoting restful sleep and overall well-being.
🌀 Preparing for Labour

A deeply restorative experience for both you and baby 💜

🌸 How Your Breasts Change During Pregnancy 🌸

Your body is amazing! During pregnancy, your breasts transform to prepare for feeding your baby.

Here's what to expect:

💗 Tenderness or heightened sensitivity
💗 Growth spurt (hello, new bra size!)
💗 Changes in colour of the ni***es and ar**la
💗 Montgomery glands become more visible (those tiny little raised bumps)
💗 By week 16, your breasts might start producing colostrum, a nutrient-packed fluid for your baby 💛

As your due date approaches, the changes continue, and your breasts might feel heavy or sore. A well-fitting bra can make a world of difference—wear one day and night if it helps!

🤍 Being breast aware during and after pregnancy is so important. Take time to get familiar with how your breasts look and feel. Knowing what’s normal for you helps you notice any unusual changes with confidence. If you feel pain, discomfort, or notice anything that doesn’t feel right, don’t hesitate to speak to your GP or midwife—they’re there to help.

✨ Keep Those Toes Toasty in Labour! ✨

Did you know that keeping your feet warm during labour can actually support the progress of birth?

Here’s why it matters and how to make it happen!

💡 Why Warm Feet Are Important:

Relaxation: Warm feet help relax your whole body, reducing tension that could slow labour.

Improved Circulation: Staying cozy encourages good blood flow, keeping you comfortable and energised.

Connection to the Uterus: According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, warm feet are associated with healthy blood flow in the uterus.

🧦 Top Tips for Toasty Toes:
1️⃣ Cozy Socks: Pack a pair of soft, non-slip socks in your hospital bag or birth kit. Choose ones that feel luxurious! 🧦✨
2️⃣ Warm Foot Baths: If you’re labouring at home, a quick soak can soothe and warm your feet. 🌿
3️⃣ Hot Water Bottle or Heat Pad: Place one under a blanket near your feet for steady, gentle warmth.
4️⃣ Move Around: Walking or gentle movements during labor can keep circulation flowing and your toes cozy. 🚶‍♀️
5️⃣ Massage: Ask your birth partner to give your feet a gentle massage with a warming oil blend. Bonus: it feels amazing! 💆‍♀️

Keeping your feet warm isn’t just about comfort—it’s a small but powerful way to nurture your body and support a smoother birth. 🌟
