Putting Moms First: The Right Care For The Mother – During And After Pregnancy

When a woman finds out that she is carrying a life inside her womb, both her mind and body experience several changes. Most of these changes are new to the expectant mother, and some of these changes might even be unsettling or embarrassing for her to talk about.

But we believe, dear mum – that caring for yourself comes first. Because if you’re happy, you will have a happier and healthier pregnancy, and be better prepared to accept motherhood. So to understand your journey of pregnancy, listen to your body and mind and share what you’re going through!

The first change begins with the knowledge of your pregnancy. You can receive an accurate report with a home pregnancy detection test, like the Cipla Mamaxpert pregnancy detection kit.

Once you’re pregnant and when you deliver, your body will undergo tremendous changes. You can deal with them with the right care. Some of the problems might include:

Excessive vaginal discharge and irritation

Hormonal changes during pregnancy leads to excessive vaginal discharge, irritation and itching. This can cause discomfort. To reduce discomfort, women must maintain intimate hygiene with a product like Mamaxpert Intimate Wash, by Cipla.

• Maintains vaginal pH balance between 3.5-4.5 and reduces unpleasant odour

Heaviness in legs and feet

With the increasing pressure of a growing baby, there’s a growing pressure on the legs too, leading to heaviness and discomfort. Which is why it is essential to use Mamaxpert Legs Relaxing Gel during pregnancy, to soothe and relax fatigued legs.

Stretch marks

Weight gain and hormonal changes during pregnancy can cause the skin to give way and form narrow, discoloured lines on the body, called stretch marks. Stretch marks can cause irritation and redness. This can be controlled by moisturizing the skin during pregnancy with Mamaxpert Stretch Mark Cream. It has carefully selected ingredients that minimise the appearance of stretch marks while hydrating and nourishing the skin.

Cracked and sore nipples

Hormonal changes during and post pregnancy can make nipples sore and the breasts feel tender. This especially holds true for nursing moms who experience pain during breastfeeding. Mamaxpert soothing nipple cream , a nourishing formula filled with natural oils, soothes sore and cracked nipples and keeps them moisturised.

Cipla Mamaxpert Soothing Nipple Cream:

• Moisturises the skin, soothes sore and cracked nipples.

Sagging breasts

Pregnancy brings about a lot of changes in the breasts, causing them to feel heavy, tender and tingly. With the loss of skin elasticity, the breasts tend to sag, but Mamaxpert Breast Firming Gel can help. It nourishes and hydrates the skin, increasing its elasticity while being safe to use.

Throughout the nine-month pregnancy journey and as a new mother, everyone asks the mom to prepare and care for the little one, but hardly anyone asks her what she’s going through. It’s time to put her first and be a part of a happy, smooth-sailing pregnancy journey!
