My back and kamar is paining so much these days and i was thinking of booking a spa to relax. But im 20 weeks now so thoda scared if its okay. Anyone did spa during pregnancy?
Oh, you absolutely deserve that pampering, I remember how exhausting those body aches were! Just make sure the spa people know you are pregnant so they are extra gentle with you. Sending you hugs.
A gentle head massage or foot spa is fine, but avoid lying on your stomach or any deep pressure on your back. My C-section recovery taught me to be very careful with body muscles, so tell them to use mild oils only.
I wanted to go to a spa so badly but I was too scared of the aromatherapy oils and hot stones. If you go, please make sure they don't use strong essential oils or heat, it's always better to be double safe!
I went for a prenatal spa massage in my second trimester and it was so relaxing for my sore shoulders. Just avoid hot tubs or steam baths completely, as overheating is not safe for the baby.
Spa? What is that? I haven't seen a salon since my baby was born, haha! Go enjoy it now while you can, just make sure they don't press any wrong pressure points on your feet.
