| Everything will be Fine | 9. Become a “sun battery”. Under the influence of bright sunlight a special substance is elaborated in your blood. This substance speeds the work of all organs and systems up. You feel yourself much better, when the sun shines outside, don’t you? The sun is most tender and useful in early morning hours. That is why you should try go get up with its first beams and go for a walk (at least go to the balcony and spend about 10 minutes there). Go to bed early as well, as the time before midnight is practically magical, during these evening hours all your strengths get restored and all your body tissues become younger. This regime is useful for you and for your little one as well.
10. Make the legs of your bed longer. At the last trimester of your pregnancy you may notice that your legs get swollen by the evening. It happens because the organism is getting ready to deliver a baby and stores liquid. At this period you should drink a little bit less, than you used to. Ask your husband to put your bed at an angle. To do so, let him put wooden squared beams under the hind legs of your bed. Your legs will be higher than your head. And this will help the swellings disappear.
11. Have sex. Your relatives may hint you that you should not enjoy sex, being in an “interesting condition”, but if your doctor does not mind, having sex would be even useful! It makes the blood circulation in uterus better and your baby receives more oxygen; it helps the uterus to relax (sometimes it may come into a tone that will make you feel pain); in such a pleasant way you help the neck of the uterus to get ready to a delivery; for a family life having a good sex is always for the better. It brings both of you closer and helps you to avoid quarrels.
12. Make your home cozy. You suddenly began to feel yourself like a modeler, a designer and an upholsterer at the same time. You wish to change the interior of your house, make a cozy nest for your baby. This is the work of a “motherhood hormone” – estrogen. Do not restrain your instincts. Decorate the windows, hand pictures on the walls, put some little souvenirs in the bookshelves, decorate baby’s vests and pants with embroidery. Let your husband change the wall – papers and arrange the furniture in the baby’s room.
13. Produce your own aroma. Essential oils do not only have a pleasant aroma, the also influence your organism in a special way. And each of them has its own effect. The organic substances through your nose get into blood and nervous system, and then they influence different areas of your brain, which control the production of hormones and are responsible for emotions and behavior. Try to find the combination of these oils that would be the most appropriate for you, as they influence every person in a different way. Having a napkin with your own essential oils combination will help you during the delivery: it will help you to relax, make the fits easier, and get all unpleasant feelings away.
- But you should keep in mind that not all essential oils are good for you now. Some of them have such an aggressive smell that may cause nausea and even vomiting.
- Pour several drops of different oils into your aroma lamp. You may take to the hospital the aroma, you liked the most.
14. Eat less calcium. Future mothers are always advised to eat more dairy products for their babies had enough of calcium. Of course your little one does need this building material, but not all 9 months long. During last weeks of your pregnancy this microelement is necessary not in such big quantities as it used to be for your baby to arrive easier (his skull bones would not be so hard).
15. Arrange an unforgettable party. During first several months after your baby arrives, you will pay all attention to him. And now you have plenty of free time. Why should you not invite guests so far? Decorate the house with balloons and serpentine, make tasty fruit snacks, arrange a tea – bar with different kinds of tea. Choose a good music, and prepare a little present for each of your guests. During the party recollect your past, talk about your future; discuss the name of your baby… You will be in a good mood for quite a long time after having such a party.
