6 Golden Tips to Relieve Back Pain for Moms
Whether through repetitive stress, poor posture or tension, there is no way: women who have just become mothers will experience back pain at some point!
To avoid this discomfort, put into practice some tips at various times of the day when you will repeat some situations.
1. When to breastfeed
Prepare the place where you will breastfeed, use cushions to support the back and another to the arms when holding the baby in the lap. Keep your posture upright and have support when you get tired. You need to be comfortable to enjoy this important moment.
2. When placing in the cradle
Remember the squat that you did at the gym? The instructor always said, “Keep your feet parallel and your knees bent,” repeat this mantra as you put your baby in and out of the crib, and remember to use your arms more and less your spine.
3. Lift the child off the ground
Do not bend, but lower yourself to catch the child by flexing their knees and standing erect. So, your spine will hold out until the end of the day!
4. Take and put of the feeding chair
When placing the child, pull the front, sit and close the protection. By putting without opening the front tray you save time but end your spine!
5. When putting in the car seat
According to the specialist, the ideal is to sit with the child in the lap in the back seat and then to accommodate her in the baby seat or baby comfort. This is to avoid putting the child in the car while standing.
6. In the cart
To place or remove the child from the stroller, try to flex the legs to stay in the child’s height and then serve. If you do not do this, your back will be impaired.
Taking these little care, some muscles and ligaments will not be so pressured and you can avoid pains and strains that do not match this moment of life!
