If you are pregnant, you will no doubt be buying new furniture ready for your new arrival. However, you may not have considered how new furniture could improve your health and well-being during your pregnancy. One item of furniture which can massively improve the quality of your life during pregnancy is an adjustable bed. Read on to discover three benefits of investing in an adjustable bed when pregnant.
An adjustable bed can help you to sleep
One challenge for any pregnant woman is finding a comfortable position to sleep in. As your bump grows bigger, you may find it increasingly difficult to get comfortable in bed. This can lead to disrupted sleep at a time when you need all of the rest you can get. A great solution to this issue is an adjustable bed. Once you have climbed into your adjustable bed, you will be able to adjust the headrest and lower sections of the bed until you find a position which supports your body in a comfortable way.
An adjustable bed can improve your circulation
During your pregnancy, your body will divert blood from your extremities towards your growing baby. While the blood plays a key role in carrying oxygen and nutrients to your baby, it can lead to circulation problems which affect your feet and hands. You may notice that your hands and feet feel cold or that they feel numb. The poor circulation may also cause your feet and ankles to swell as fluid begins to collect in this area which isn't carried away. An adjustable bed can help you to combat the issues associated with poor circulation. All you need to do is to lie flat on the bed and then lower the head section and raise the lower section so your feet are raised above your heart. This can help to reduce swelling and improve circulation to your extremities.
An adjustable bed can improve your mobility
As your bump gets bigger, you may struggle to climb in and out of bed due to your increasing size. However, with an adjustable bed, you can lower the bed, which will make it much easier to climb onto the bed and to clamber out of it every morning.
