On many occasions, pregnant women are recommended, especially in the last weeks of pregnancy, bed rest to prevent complications such as premature labor or vaginal bleeding. Although this may be a positive thing for you, many women find this anxiety-provoking, feeling isolated and bored. At Copaping we want to do our bit, giving you 6 activities to keep you clear and distracted during this stage. Let's start!
Read books
This is a great plan for those who like to read! You can take advantage of the free time to read the new books that you wanted so much and had not had time until now, or continue with the one that you left halfway. Reading will make you grow personally, it will make you feel happy, motivated, and productive.
Games
Take advantage of free time to play, alone or with yours. You deserve it! Board games, on computers, mobile phones, in magazines (such as sudokus or crossword puzzles), etc. You have endless options to choose from, think of yourself and choose the one you like best.
Hobbies
It's time to put your favorite hobbies into practice: paint, sing, make healthy pastries or any dish in the kitchen, listen to music... do what you feel like at all times.
Make albums
What better than investing your time in looking at photos of past memories, and creating an album with all of them? You can make an album of family, with your co-father, of trips, of friends, of last Christmas, of you! You will keep yourself entertained during the process, and when you have it it will be an unforgettable memory. You can do it both digitally, or the old-fashioned way! Buy a physical photo album, and start filling in the pages.
Relax with movies and series
This idea could not be missing. Put on Amazon prime, Netflix, HBO, Disney plus, or your favorite streaming service. Invest your time enjoying that movie or series you wanted to see. You can also educate yourself on all kinds of fascinating topics by watching documentaries. This will make you distracted and busy for at least a couple of hours. Do it alone or with company!
Take care of yourself
What better time than taking care of yourself while pregnant. Take a slow shower, with music, and when you get out, smear your favorite creams all over your skin, apply your favorite hair products and feel like new. With this, you can be distracted and busy thinking about yourself and pampering yourself for a long time.
With this, you already have some ideas to rest and prepare the arrival of your baby in the best possible way.
