COMFORTABLE PREGNANCY GIFT GUIDE
NATURAL MORNING SICKNESS PRODUCTS
Morning sickness affects more than half of all pregnant women and some women experience nausea and vomiting beyond the first trimester. Try natural products to help with the sickness that often occurs all times of day, not just in the morning time.

MATERNITY SOCKS
If swelling is an issue, compression socks may be the answer. Even if there is no swelling, no pregnant mama can have too many comfy socks.

There are natural ways of trying to prevent stretch marks like eating well and drinking tons of water but moisturizing with these products can help as well. Also, consider organic and unrefined coconut oil and organic Shea butter; both are excellent natural moisturizers.

PREGNANCY COURSES
Everyone has an opinion about what you should be doing during your pregnancy and it only gets more intense when you give birth. Information from reliable sources can prepare you to make your own informed decisions. There is no greater comfort than knowing you made the best choice available with the resources available to you. It starts with knowledge.
THE ULTIMATE BREASTFEEDING COURSE
I wrote a full review on this breastfeeding course and truly believe there are tremendous benefits to learning about breastfeeding during pregnancy and before giving birth.
SHOPPING CONSIDERATIONS

PRICE– You shouldn’t have to spend tons of money during pregnancy to get comfortable. I’ve offered several options in each category but please don’t think you need every item. You don’t. Find what works for you within a price range that works for your budget.
DURABILITY– Most often, we get what we pay for. In lieu of purchasing lots of low-quality items for the price, it’s more beneficial to purchase quality items that last. It’s difficult to know from a picture which items are the most durable, so I recommend reading reviews and shopping carefully.
SHOPPING ONLINE– I enjoy shopping online but when a product doesn’t live up to the expected standards, it’s nice to know you can return the product. Before purchasing, check the retailer’s return policy.
I hope that this list helps you find products that can make pregnancy more comfortable for you or a loved one. If you have a product that has helped you tremendously, please share it in the comments. It could help a fellow pregnant mom.
