| Lavender lotion or oil, or bath products | Lavender oil is very soothing and relaxing. Unwind with some scented lavender lotion. Have your partner give you a massage on those pregnancy-fatigued spots like your back and feet. Or, immerse yourself in the tub with some lavender bubble bath. Soak up the scent and relax. | ||
| Scented eye pillow | Scented eye pillows help promote relaxation and calming sensations. Lie back with an eye pillow and feel the tension give away. These are particularly great for expecting moms who can't stop thinking and stressing about what is to come before they go to bed. | ||
| Aromatherapy candles | Light a lavender or chamomile scented candle and you'll feel the tension and stress leave your body. Pamper yourself with aromatherapy candles to ease your mind and soul, allowing you to get a good night's sleep before Baby arrives. | ||
| Maternity girdle | To stay comfortable and relieve the pressure on your back and hips, wear a maternity girdle. They help to lift your belly off of your pelvis a bit and keep you supported and standing tall. Also, it is great for taking the strain off of an expecting mom's legs. | ||
| Support hose | Feel supported and comfy with support hose. They keep your legs looking shapely and help to prevent varicose veins. Just make sure they aren't too restricting in the midsection. You want to improve blood flow with the hose, not restrict it! | ||
| Hot/cold packs | For swollen feet, aching backs, and pounding headaches, invest in some hot and cold packs. You'll be glad you have them when pregnancy-related aches and pains knock on your door and you have these nifty items to soothe them away. | ||
