Another unusual year with new normal continues its course with Halloween knocking on the door behind the bridge of Pillars. After these celebrations and more in a year as turbulent as this, Christmas appears. The golden age for children and enjoys time with family and friends. From belly bandit blog we are going to offer you some tips if you are enjoying your pregnancy this holiday season.
Enjoying A Christmas Meal
And, as we well know, most celebrations are held around large tables full of food and delicacies that are difficult to resist. Binge eating and whims are the order of the day in these parties that usually last 15 days, so the main recommendation is moderation for our well-being and not to load ourselves excessively of weight.
It must be clarified that the restrictions will be more or less strict depending on the time of pregnancy, since it is not the same to be 3 months than 8 months, but even so, it is advisable to take it in a calm and relaxed way. This in part also depends on the character of each one, but it is worth it to be calmer these 9 months.
Here are our main recommendations:
In good weather it is always advisable to walk through quiet places, ideally in nature and as long as the cold is not severe we can walk in relative comfort and confidence.
Our great ally, exercise
It is best to avoid places with a high saturation of people, as they can be stressful and overwhelming like the crowds of the dates, and can even lead to a fall. At Christmas everything is decked out for these dates and very cool and cozy markets are set up, we can take the opportunity to take a walk and soak up the Christmas spirit, as long as they are not with many people as we have said.
Reduce social events
It is normal that on these dates he goes out since it is also a vacation period that he usually takes advantage of to be with friends and family. It is time to share good moments, stories, memories and reunions in a place that gives us warmth. These are good, magical and endearing moments that only usually happen at this time of year.
As we have commented, everything depends on the time of pregnancy, if not, we will be able to stay in bars, hotels or other relatives' houses, but if the pregnancy is advanced, the best thing will be at home and with peace of mind. Here we will be able to attend most of the appointments and reunions and they will surely understand and make that effort.
We must understand that at this time our main priority is to take good care of ourselves and especially the well-being of the baby. In this way we will be calm in our home, avoiding noise and stress that travel can cause us.
Buy online or place orders
Christmas is one of those periods par excellence where many purchases are made. Toys, clothes(including pregnancy shapewear and postpartum shapewear) and large amounts of food along with gifts often make up a large list of details that can end our long-awaited relaxation and cause us extra stress.
But we should not worry, we can always choose the hours with the least influx of people to the markets or delegate the purchases to the couple, a family member or friend. If we want to do the shopping ourselves to choose the products and avoid the crowds, we can always choose to shop online.
