Having a big baby bump can be very restrictive physically. You can’t sunbathe properly over the summer or chill out on a lilo in the pool. Sleeping is also difficult and ways of relaxing like massages and yoga are very limited because of your bump.
MummyPages has come across a fantastic product that will make your pregnancy so much easier, whether you’re lying in the pool over your holidays or trying to get some much-needed sleep at home. The holo is an inflatable airbed with a hole in the middle – such a simple idea!
The holo was developed to use in pregnancy so women can lie on their tummies. It has been suggested by many experts that lying on your tummy is a great way to get baby into the optimal position for birth, but is impossible for women once they reach their 3rd trimester. This genius product will allow you to lie on your tummy and has been approved by midwives, osteopaths, yoga teachers, physiotherapist and obstetricians, so you know it’s perfectly safe to use while pregnant.
What we love about holo is that it can be used for a variety of purposes – not just for hanging out in the pool. You can deflate the head section and use a pillow instead if you want to lie on your belly while sunbathing. You can also use the holo if you are finding it difficult to sleep. Many women use pillows and cushions to enable tummy sleeping – the holo is a modified, more practical version of this method. If you are going for a massage, physio or osteopathy, simply bring your holo with you and you will be able to lie on your tummy no problem! It’s also great for yoga so you can still get some exercise even in the late stages of your pregnancy.
The holo is one size fits all with dimensions of 185 x 65 x 18cm (max 21cm at hole) and hole diameter is approx 30cm.
The holo is £39.99 and is available to purchase by visiting www.holo-lilo.com/index.html
