Help Your Wife Manage Stress During Pregnancy

Do not think that stress management during pregnancy is the ordeal for the woman only. To look at the stressed face of the spouse is in itself the cause of stress. Though for the man, it is the mental stress only. For the woman it is the physical and mental stress combined together! Say, a new dimension to the family is in the process of growing. Therefore, it is a sweet, peculiar type of stress, full of anxiety and aspirations.

Your spouse is undergoing one of the novel, crucial experiences of her life. Her body has given the solace to the creative force of Nature which is working through her. At this time, what she needs is all out support, understanding and love.

Man, if you are capable of loving her, give her the utmost at this time. It would be great psychological boost for her. The woman, if she is pregnant for the first time, will have lots of anxieties about the level of pain during the delivery.

If pregnancy is at the advanced stage, the anxiety would increase by each passing day. The woman has to be strong physically as well as emotionally to face the final part of the pregnancy leading to the birth of the child.

From the psychological point of view, the family support is the best. It is not uncommon for the women to attend ?birth classes?. Attending such classes is the first step for her psychological boost. The birthing coach will help your spouse with matters related to pregnancy and delivery.

Even before the third month of pregnancy, your spouse is expected to attend such classes. She will be taught the advantages of the better blood flow with oxygen and how the growing baby can get more nutrients. The company of classmates helps to raise the level of her confidence. At some stage of the classes, she would be taught the relaxation techniques.

Another important stress management tip for the pregnant woman is related to food. You need to be clear about her diet chart, the list of to be given and not to be given things. Bear in mind that she is eating for two individuals.

Regulating hormones is critical so that there is no mis-happening during the pregnancy. So, those fruits and vegetables that contribute to maintaining the levels of hormones, need to be given to her.

Her feelings need to be well-cared for, and even if there are some complications at any stage of the pregnancy, she should not be encouraged to take a grim view of the situation. If she knows the art of meditation, it is much better for toning down the little bits of stresses she is bound to have!

Give her the best in everything. For the best of both of you is going to arrive soon!

Cord Blood Banking

If you are an expecting parent, it could be a once in a lifetime opportunity to bank your baby's cord blood. This blood is rich in stem cells that could potentially save your child or other family members from serious diseases and conditions. Stem cells can develop into any type of organ or tissue such as liver, heart and neural cells. They can also repair tissue and organs damaged in strokes and heart attacks. There are more than 70 diseases and disorders that have been successfully treated with cord blood stem cells. With the advancement of stem cell research, the future of stem cells look promising as more of its uses are discovered.

Cord blood banking is non-invasive and not harmful to the mother or baby. The cord blood collection process is safe, painless, simple and fast. There are two ways it can be done, either of which can be decided upon by your doctor. There are in utero and ex utero. The difference is in where the placenta and umbilical cord are during the collection process. The first collection method, in utero, takes place when the umbilical cord and the placenta are still inside the mother. After the baby is born, there is about five to ten minutes before the placenta is discharged from the mother. The cord blood is collected while waiting for the placenta to deliver naturally. In ex utero, cord blood collection takes place after the placenta has been discharged and placed in a sterile container.

In order for a cord blood transplant to work, there needs to be at least 75 mL of blood collected. This amount of blood ensures that there are enough stems cells available for the transplantation process to happen. The next step comes in storage of the cord blood. Since it is a biological material, it will be tested to ensure that there are no diseases such as HIV or hepatitis and other problems. Once this is done, the storage process can take place through cryopreservation. A cryopreservant is added to the blood, which will allow the blood to slowly begin to freeze. The slow process is needed to keep the cells alive throughout the process. Once it is cooled to -90 degrees celsius, it can then be added to liquid nitrogen tanks that will keep it frozen at -196 degrees celsius.

It is important to learn the facts about cord blood banking to help you make an informed decision. Speak with your doctor, ask questions, research on various cord blood banks and assess the financial costs involved. Whether you decide to bank your baby's cord blood or not is a personal decision. Bear in mind that there is only one opportunity to do so for each child.

Dr. Linda Miles

By Dr. Linda Miles

Using simple techniques Moms can learn how easily they can whisper relaxing phrases to their babies during pregnancy, delivery, and post-partum.

Dr. Linda Miles, inspires and instructs Moms, using a practical, proven effective method, which calms both the child and Mom, while building a stronger emotional and physical bond between the two. And Dads can join in, too.

When Moms are anxious, babies feel that anxiety. Research has shown that a stressed Mom creates a stressed baby, causing the fetus’ heart to beat faster. When levels of stress hormones are too high for extended periods of time, both Mom and the baby’s mental and physical health suffer.

In 1973 Dr. Miles used natural childbirth with her son, Christopher Brett. She found Lamaze helpful, but after that pregnancy she wanted an even more stress free birth. She wanted less stress for both her and her child.

Quickly, she realized the tremendous benefit listening with headphones to individually recorded, soothing music with a familiar voice would have. Here was a simple way to remind her to relax.

When she was a bundle of nerves, there was an easy comfort with just the flip of a switch. Then, she could share, gently whispering, what she heard with her baby. To her surprise the relaxation practice brought deep calm not only to her, but to baby Brett, too.

With her initial personal success as a Mommy Whisperer, Dr. Miles studied and has used these relaxation techniques successfully for over 30 years with her clients and friends. After the stress of the pregnancy with her first child, a client of Dr. Miles used the Mommy Whisperer technique for her second child with entirely different results. She was calm throughout the experience, with less stress on her.

Therefore, there was less stress on her child. She had a peaceful pregnancy and delivery. Because Mommy Whisperer's reduce stress on themselves and their child, they can enhance the mother-child bond after the baby is born.

Using simple relaxation strategies, parents actually affect the physical structure of the baby's developing brain. The patterns we learn, affect how we cope with stress and with life.

While soothing her baby, Mom is actually teaching her child to self-soothe. When you soothe your baby with whispers, they may develop a pattern of self-soothing that works under stress.

And the opposite happens too. If Mom or anyone is loud and reactive under stress, the child develops that pattern and responds that way to stress. The brain loves the familiar, so how we train our children, becomes their coping strategy.

So, whisper to your child, "I am so happy you are here." “I love you so much.” “You are so beautiful.” “Everything is okay.” This gives them safety to learn and explore.

Jackets on the floor

Jackets on the floor, missing hats and mittens, and the raincoat that always disappears when it’s pouring outside and he’s about to miss the school bus…

Does this all sound familiar? The solution is pretty simple (in which we mean, it’s as pretty as it is simple): a child clothes stand.

Made at exactly a child’s height, they’re perfect for holding jackets, hats, and schoolbags. The moment they enter the door, they can hang their things (as opposed to dumping them on the floor, for Mommy to pick up). It takes just seconds for them to do that—but it saves everyone so much trouble!

You don’t waste time in the morning looking for lost things. He doesn’t miss the school bus, you aren’t late for work helping him find that stray jacket, and you don’t spend the morning nagging or lecturing him about why he should take care of his things. You don’t have to worry about a messy hallway; you don’t have to think about where to put his stuff away. The child clothes stand waits, and all he has to do is reach up, and hang them.

The child clothes stand also makes a charming decoration, as cute and playful as your own sweet (if sometimes messy and forgetful) child. Choose from a wide selection of shapes and colors, to compliment your child’s age, personality, and your own decorating style.

Some child clothes stands look like animals, your “special pets” standing guard at the door, waiting to greet him when he comes home from school. How about a child clothes stand that looks like a friendly dalmatian? Or a child clothes stand that looks like a cute little giraffe? (How many kids can say that they’ve got a giraffe at the door?)

For girls, there are child clothes stands that look like flowers or dainty ballerinas. For boys, you’ve got child clothes stands in baseball or fireman themes. You can even complete the look with a handy rack for keys, wallets or small treasures. The playful designs, the charming colors, the small details (like wee knobs shaped like soccer balls!) all make it a child clothes stand above the rest.

If you want a more classic theme that will blend with the rest of your interiors, there are also child clothes stands that are shaped to look like lamp posts, with different varnishes to compliment your other furniture. Or you can choose from child clothes stands painted in different primary colors, still very childlike but “cool” enough for a tween who’s “over” her ballerina phase.

These child clothes stands are sturdy, and at just the right height. There’s no danger of your child slipping as he reaches up to hang his clothes on an adult clothes stand, nor will his clothes be hidden under a pile of other overcoats. This is his own special child clothes stand, and there’s nothing like that sense of ownership to make him take responsibility for his things!

But child clothes stands can be used for other things as well: for displaying a teenager’s assortment of bags, or decorating a themed nursery (hang teddy bears, towels or nursing blankets instead of jackets and scarves).
