Pregnancy Cradles
Pregnancy cradles are orthotic supports that help prevent the abdominal and back strain that can occur during pregnancy,
as well as ease the pain caused from hip separation and public symphysis. Much like a woman holding her hands under
her abdomen, pregnancy cradles support the weight of pregnancy without restricting mother or child. By freeing the arms
and promoting proper circulation to the lower extremities, pregnancy cradles allow many mothers to remain active
throughout the third trimester. Covered by most insurances, pregnancy cradles are enthusiastically recommended by
healthcare professionals and women world wide.

Breast Pumps
New parents want to give their precious little ones the very best; and, according to the Food and Drug Administration,
"when it comes to nutrition, the best first food for babies is breast milk." This idea that the "breast is best" usually
entails bringing the baby exclusively to the breast; however, due to difficult labors, illness, premature births,
postpartum depression, decisions to return back to work, and many other situations, alternate feeding solutions are
sometimes needed. Breast pumps allow mothers to feed their little ones breast milk even when it is not possible to
breastfeed their infants directly. Covered by most insurances, Essentials For The Special Woman may be able to
provide these products with little or no cost to the new mother.

Nursing Bras and Camisoles
Many nursing mothers underestimate the importance of obtaining really good nursing bras. These specialty garments
not only allow ready access to a mother's breast for breastfeeding purposes; they also provide the additional support
needed for heavy, milk-engorged breasts. Additionally, a properly fitted nursing bra will help lessen the likelihood of a
mother's breasts becoming constricted, a situation that could lead to plugged ducts, mastitis, discomfort and pain.
Essentials For The Special Woman is pleased provide a diverse selection of nursing bras and camisoles, as well as
professional fitters that can ensure a proper fit.

It is natural, and advisable, for an expectant and/or nursing mother to become concerned about the products she is
putting on her body, after all she is carrying/nursing a growing baby and many of the chemicals found in today's

your baby's health with Essentials For The Special Woman's full line of all-natural and organic skin and body care
products that support the entire birth process - pregnancy, labor, postpartum and c-section recovery, breastfeeding,
and baby care.

Compression Stockings
Generally, an expectant mother's body increases the volume of blood in her body dramatically, while decreasing the flow
of blood from the legs to the pelvis. While this natural process is intended to ensure that the growing fetus is well
supported, it can cause swelling, aching legs and varicose veins - some of the pregnancy symptoms that most expectant
mothers could do without. Compression stockings, which are worn all day, can be the first line of defense against these
uncomfortable conditions. With expandable tummy panels that allow their use throughout the 2nd and 3rd trimesters,
compression stockings gently and consistently add pressure to the legs, helping blood to flow more easily and
improving the leg health of its expectant wearers.
