One support tip I would add for moms in pregnancy is keep those swollen feet lifted above hip level, and even better, rest them against the headboard of your bed to encourage the water retention to drop down! Trust me it’s a life saver

SAME! lol with my 2nd I remember it was sooo bad I had to soak my feet in cool epson salt baths and that only helped a tad
Under 1 hour is okay, but for some women after 20 weeks, laying flat on the back isn’t safe. The heavy uterus can press on major blood vessels, which lowers blood flow to the heart and reduces oxygen to the baby.
Oh I have to try this one!
This is very helpful thank you for sharing. I learned something new today. ![]()
