Why an adjustable bed is a pregnant woman’s best friend?

Pregnancy is a beautiful and transformative journey, filled with anticipation, milestones, and love. However, pregnancy is also full of many trials and tribulations that take various forms and affect women to varying degrees. The miracle of childbirth and the joy of bringing a healthy baby into the world is undoubtedly worth the challenges experienced along the way, but at Solace Sleep our mission is to help people sleep better and pain free. We are confident our beds can help ease the burden on expecting mamas and this article will tell you how.

Heartburn Ease 

One particularly persistent symptom for many expecting mothers is heartburn. The burning sensation in your chest can  make the simplest of tasks feel unbearable. And unfortunately, unlike other pregnancy symptoms, heartburn often lingers for the entire duration of a pregnancy. If you’re struggling with pregnancy reflux, there is hope! Our adjustable beds can act as your knight in shining armour by offering the raised head function, to discourage stomach acid from making its way up your oesophagus. This gentle incline function helps keep stomach contents at bay, reducing the uncomfortable burning sensation, allowing for a better night’s rest.

Aches and Pains Relief

Heavy pressure, additional weight, and restricted sleeping positions leads many pregnant women to suffer from relentless aches and pains when in bed. A Solace Sleep bed, however, allows you to customise your sleep position for optimal comfort. You can raise your head to ease heartburn or find the perfect position to cradle your growing belly. Our beds mould to your everchanging conditions, providing tailored support exactly where and when you need it most.

Swollen Ankles and Feet

During pregnancy it is common to experience swelling or ‘oedema’ in the ankles and feet due to the extra fluid in the body and the pressure from the growing uterus. Swollen ankles and feet make walking and other daily activities challenging or painful for an expecting mum. Solace Sleep beds offer the raised legs and massage function that boost circulation and promote blood flow back to the centre of the body, alleviating the swollen ankles and feet, making both rest and activities more comfortable.

Shortness in Breath

A rise in progesterone early into pregnancy often causes pregnant women to breathe faster and experience shortness of breath. This shortness of breath can be worrisome but is typically harmless and will fade out as the pregnancy progresses. However, to alleviate shortness of breath, sleeping in a more upright position can open the lungs and encourage better air flow throughout the body, minimising the apparentness of shortness in breath.

The best part about our Solace Sleep Beds? A Solace Sleep bed is a partner for life, and your journey to a better night’s rest does not have to end once your pregnancy is over. Purchasing a Solace Sleep bed is investing in your long-term comfort. As you cycle through the various stages of symptoms that come with each trimester of pregnancy, the adjustability of your bed allows for continued support.

You can count on a Solace Sleep bed to ease your shortness in breath, your back aches, your heartburn flare ups, and your swollen ankles and feet. And furthermore, in the early stages of parenthood, your bed will act as the perfect spot to nurse your little one. A Solace Sleep bed is the bed that grows with you, adapting to whatever stage of life you’re in.
