3 Easy ways for a happier Working mum-to-be!

Work still goes on, even if you're pregnant!

You probably spend the first 6 months smoothly at work... as when you feel like carrying a DHL balloon daily to work; its time to do some adjustments.

The idea is to keep yourself moving, for a better blood circulation and releasing stiffness in the joints. Here's some pointers to take note of:

GET YOUR BUTT OF THE CHAIR AND WALK AROUND THE OFFICE

Sitting any longer than an hour, is just not good! 

I do understand the thought of moving away from your comfort chair, walking about carrying a weight can be a dread.
Keeping yourself active helps to improve blood circulation and releasing the stiffness of the joints ( hips, knees, spine)

- Take chance to visit the toilet

- Have a little "chit chat" breaks with your colleagues face-to-face

- Walk out for lunches

LOOSE IT ALL!

Wear comfortable clothes, especially at around the chest and rib-cage area. We need to breathe! So keep the belts loosely decorated around you.

Time to put your sexy high-heels aside, and embrace comfy flats-soles or even orthopedic shoes/ sandals.

Most pregnant mums do experience some form of water-retention.
Don't worry! You're not getting fat, you're just bloating... at least for a few months. 

As your body gets heavier by days, investing in a good footwear is very essential to protect your ankles, knees, hips and the whole alignment of your spine.

PUT A STOP TO YOUR WORK

Yup! I know...you take utmost pride and priority in your work. But do manage your stress level during this period. As the hormones in the body is fluctuating, you may experience mood-swings and tiredness almost like tossing a coin.

Piling up too much work and stress will affect the healthy growth of both yourself and the little one. 

Leave your work on your work desk when its time to take rest at home. 

Honestly, there's no end to work... have a break!
