I love wearing Indian ethnic wear on special occasions or festivals. A Saree is one of my favourite ethnic attire to wear during Puja or family get-togethers. Again in sarees, I have a soft corner for handloom sarees. The beauty and feel of these handwoven slow crafted sarees are truly mesmerizing. It was Durga Puja time and Diwali is also approaching in few days, hence I thought to buy a beautiful handloom saree to celebrate all these festivals with extra joy. Huts and Looms Tissue Silk Saree In case you are wondering what a handloom saree is, then let me tell you in brief. Handlooms are basically handwoven fabrics made on a weaving machine called a loom. Hence, the name comes from HandLoom. It is a slow-crafted process, as it needs the utmost patience, creativity, and physical strength to create a masterpiece. Handloom sarees are generally priced because of this reason. I feel every woman looks graceful, powerful and amazing in a saree. Handloom sarees are representing our cultur
During pregnancy one of the main concern is getting a proper and comfortable sleeping position. We normally love the back or stomach sleeping postion and it is really comfortable too. But during pregnancy we can't sleep in those positions, it might be harmful for the baby inside the womb. To be very honest, I am still struggling to get a proper sleep during night (I am on my third trimester currently ). And I know it is not gonna possible in any way now. But we can take few precautions to make the sleep pattern comfortable and that's the topic of today.
* Sleep on your back - It is advisable by the doctor to not sleep on your back during the time period of pregnancy . When we sleep on our back ,it puts pressure on the growing uterus which compress the main artery and other blood vessels. Because of this the blood and nutrition supply to the baby will not be sufficient. Along with that you might face indigestion issue, constipation, low blood pressure, laziness, etc. So do avoid sleeping on your back during pregnancy.
* Sleep on stomach - I love sleeping on my stomach down but unfortunately we can't sleep like this during pregnancy. It is very clear that, when you are sleeping on your stomach, it will put pressure on the baby directly which is not good at all.
* Sleep on left / right side - Sleeping on sides is the safest way of sleeping during pregnancy. Moreover sleeping on left is more beneficial for the baby and the body than sleeping on right side. It allows maximum blood flows to the placenta and nutrition to the baby. It doesn't put pressure on the kidney. You also don't face any kind of swelling on feet, ankle, etc.
To get a comfortable sleep, the only way is to put pillows to support your back, under your belly, under your feet. Using loads of pillows make your body comfortable . You can use special kind of pillows which are meant only for pregnant women . Sometimes we sleep and not able to carry the same sleeping pattern whole night. In case you find yourself sleeping on your back, then no need to feel guilty , just change your sleeping pattern and sleep again.
Note : These are the information which I am sharing on my own experience and also according to my gynecologist's advice. Do refer your gynecologist before adopting anything to get a smooth pregnancy...
Hope you found this post helpful . See you in the next post with another exciting topic.. Till then stay beautiful.
