WIN! A Luxury Candle & Diffuser gift Set worth 100 pounds from Warwickshire Lavender Farm

WIN! A Luxury Candle & Diffuser gift Set worth 100 pounds from Warwickshire Lavender Farm.

Warwickshire Lavender Farm started out in 2016, as a dream hobby for retirement, to provide a beautiful environment and to give Ian’s bee hive residents some lovely foraging.

Our farm is on a beautiful site with a lovely south facing sandy slope, facing a natural pond and an old stone stable, and is nestled in the Warwickshire countryside.

We have planted 15,000 lavender plants, three different varieties, and some 3,000 rosemary/peppermint plants. Every plant has been lovingly tended and our dream of having an organically grown lavender farm, with essentials oils distilled on site, is well on the way now.

Benefits of Early Pregnancy Scans

Benefits of Early Pregnancy Scans

If you’ve recently found out that you’re pregnant then you may be thinking about the best time to have your first pregnancy scan. Many women wait until the Nuchal Scan, but there are some good reasons to consider getting an earlier scan first.

What is an Early Pregnancy Scan?

Early scans are ultrasounds that are performed before the first routine scan offered by the NHS, which is the Nuchal Scan at around 12 weeks. Although you won’t be offered an early scan on the NHS, there are still some good reasons to arrange a private ultrasound early in your pregnancy. The best time to arrange your Early Pregnancy Scan is between 7 and 11 weeks. By 7 weeks it is possible to check on your baby with an abdominal scan, so there will be no need for an internal ultrasound. In some cases, it may be necessary to arrange an even earlier scan for medical reasons. This would have to be performed trans-vaginally.

Advantages of Early Pregnancy Scans

You might need to have an Early Pregnancy Scan for medical reasons if your Midwife or Obstetrician recommends it. However, there can be some non-medical benefits to having an early scan too as you get a chance to see that all is well with your baby.

  • Find out how long you’ve been pregnant and get an accurate estimate of your due date as soon as possible
  • Check that the pregnancy is viable and rule out ectopic pregnancy, which is especially important if you’ve had these kinds of issues during previous pregnancies
  • Investigate symptoms such as bleeding or pain
  • Find out if you’re expecting twins or more
  • Confirm that all is well if you’re having a higher risk pregnancy, for example because you are over 35 or have other health issues
  • Reassure yourself that all is well if you’ve been feeling anxious
  • Get your first scan pictures and videos as soon as possible
  • See your baby for the first time, without having to wait until the nuchal scan

Are There Any Reasons Not to Have an Early Pregnancy Scan?

Ultrasound scans are completely safe during pregnancy, so there is no medical reason not to have an Early Pregnancy Scan. However, you might decide that this scan isn’t right for you if:

  • You think that having the scan would make you feel more anxious
  • You’re feeling tired or having symptoms such as morning sickness that mean it is more important for you to rest at home than to visit the clinic for an extra scan
  • You prefer to wait and have the first scan a bit later when we can provide more information about your baby’s health
  • You want to have the first scan at the same time as NIPT, which we can perform after 10 weeks

Best Pregnancy Beauty Products

Going through pregnancy can be one of the most exhilarating and tiring experiences your body goes through. Your skin stretches, changes, adjusts and exhibits incredible strength over 9 months.

We have selected our top beauty products for mums to be along with some top tips from our Pharmacist Hira.

These products will help your body and skin adjust to the changes that can occur. Each product is safe to use for you and your bump, so you can be assured you are not only aiding your own well-being, but your baby is safe too.

Cowshed Mother Stretch Mark Balm

Stretch marks are a very common side effect of pregnancy and are caused by collagen in the skin stretching beyond its elasticity limit.  They usually occur in the later stages of pregnancy as the stomach begins to rapidly expand for your growing baby. The Cowshed Mother Stretch Mark Balm is designed to prevent unwanted stretch marks and contains a plethora of natural conditioning ingredients such as Sea Buckthorn Oil, Coconut Oil, Shea Butter and Vitamin E. These help to improve both the appearance of stretch marks and reduce skin tearing.

 

Follow these top tips from our own in-house Pharmacist Hira to ensure that your skin, body and well-being are all taken care of during your pregnancy.

  • Gentle exercise is great for keeping fit and healthy throughout your pregnancy.  It not only helps to maintain your weight but also helps you to relax, get in a routine and sleep better.  Aim for at least 20-30 minutes daily and choose anything from walking and swimming to pilates, as they are all great activities.
  • Take care of what you are eating. Choose foods high in vitamins, folate and minerals, such as fruit, vegetables and lentils.  Another great food to include in your diet is lean protein, especially fish, which is high in omega 3 and known to help brain development.
  • Listen to your body.  This is the most important part of pregnancy as you will be aware of your body and the changes it is going through more than anyone else.  Change your routine to make life easier for yourself and the baby. If anything doesn’t feel normal or is unexpected, then contact your doctor straight away.
