Pamper yourself and allow yourself to have "me" time.. get a massage, pedicure, or even just go to the mall and get your make up done at least once a month or so.  When you feel good about yourself it shows, and others will notice.

Take time for yourself and learn to love the small indulgences - strawberries floating in your mocktails, etc. Splurge a little on maternity clothes when you are feeling especially not your best. Sure, you can't wear them forever but you might as well love them while you are wearing them!

Take a nice shower with candels and try not to think about all the stress in your life. Put on a nice CD of soothing music. When you get out just take your time and really lather up with lotion till you feel relaxed.

Get a pedicure!  Even though you can't see your toes anymore, it feels good to know that they look nice!

pamper yourself by having your significant other fill your tub with warm water and candles by the side of the tub and sit with a candle light water bath and dont forget the bubbles and fruit or chocolate or heck even both and soak and enjoy your favorite treats as you do so!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Make a date with yourself for some tranquil "Me Time."  Turn off your cell phone, put on some of your favorite tunes and take a nice, long shower full of pampering.  Indulge in the peace and quiet of time that's just for you, while you scrub, buff and wash away all your stresses.  Then, put on something that makes you feel extra sassy and do whatever you desire- read a book, sit outside on the porch with a tasty drink, dance in your living room.  It's all about you!

Make sure you don't leave stuff for the last minute. That's something I'm bad about. Take time to do things when you think of them. Also, take some time during the week to do things you really love. Allow yourself to have a mini shopping spree or just relax by the pool.

Let your other kids and your hubby take care of you! Don't say no when your daughter wants to paint your toenails, or your son want's to cook dinner, or your hubby wants to iron the clothes! Remember to tell yourself that you don't have to be in charge of everything, and that you may not get these great offers once everyone's attention shifts to the new baby.

Take any spare time you have and take a nap! Turn everything off to remove the possibility of interruptions. You may not even fall asleep, but just laying down and relaxing can be really refreshing.

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

I think that the most relaxing thing to do is let other people help you out with things.  It's okay for DH to do the laundry and dishes if he offers; even if he doesn't do them the same way you do. It makes you feel like his princess.  Also a little spa time never hurt anyone!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

I thought the best relaxing thing while I was pregnant was to take a long bubble bath.  I also loved geting a pedicure (b/c I couldn't reach my feet) & getting my hair done, I love when people wash my hair for me!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

make sure you have me time even if it's just running to the store while dc is at home with dh. get a massage while pregnant. they're wonderful.

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

The best way for me to relax now that I am pregnant is to take a nice warm bubble bath and read a good magazine.  It would be even better and more relaxing if my husband would clean the house and do laundry so I can take that nice warm bath.  

Posted by abbygrizzle    Wednesday, April 23, 2008 3:54 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

I took bubble baths all the time while I was pregnant, even when I didn't quite fit in the tub anymore. After my daughter was born I told my husband all I asked for was an hour each night to have "me" time which consisted of relaxing and unwinding in my bubble bath.

Posted by Heather&Bill    Wednesday, April 23, 2008 5:26 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

a great way to relax is to find a comfy position (sometimes it's hard while pregnant!) and read a book or get hubby to give you a foot massage!

Posted by MC2nCA    Wednesday, April 23, 2008 5:31 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

A good way to relax is to go to dinner and have the hubby help you by doing some cleaning.

Do anything that calms and relaxes you. Also, for new moms-always find time to share a smile and giggle with your baby.

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

The most relaxing thing to do when you are pregnant is to have a day for yourself... sleep in late, warm bath while reading a book, lunch with girlfriends, pedicure and a nice massage from your significant other to end the day~

Posted by kenterin19    Friday, April 25, 2008 2:20 AM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Day at the spa, whether it be a prenatal massage or a body massage, mani and pedi and a facial. You can't go wrong with either of them.

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

I like to make my surroundings very soothing with candles, music, write in your pregnancy journal, talk to  your unborn child, meditate, do some prenatal yoga to relax muscles..and then gently doze off to a good mid day nappy nap..zzz..

Posted by ModernMommyD    Friday, April 25, 2008 9:22 AM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Take time to yourself everyday.  Sometimes you get so caught up in making sure chores are done, taking care of your lover or other kids and forget about yourself.  Take an hour each day to yourself.  Shut the bedroom door and take a nice nap, go for a walk around the park, play fetch with the dog, watch your favorite tv show or take a good book out on the patio and enjoy the book and the sun.

Remember to look in the mirror each day and tell yourself that you are a wonderful, beutiful person and that you love yourself!

my best relaxation moments are when I'm at home cuddled up with my husband and two cats... it doesnt' get much better than that right now after a stressfull day at work!!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

I really relax by reading my favorite book and laying on the couch and just taking time to be myself before the baby gets here.  I also relax by sitting in my recliner and watching TV.

Definitely a pregnancy massage maybe even throw in a facial.  Theres nothing better than taking care of yourself for once.

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

As a new mom to relax I go get pedicure, I know, so simple and easy but just letting daddy keep the baby for an hour and having me time is the greatest and I'm always VERY anxious to get home to my 2 favorite people!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

LEAVE YOUR HOUSE (so you won't be distracted by things you forgot to dust or 'just one more thing' you have to put away), go somewhere alone, and be quiet - nap at the beach or park, or just enjoy a really good cookie at the coffee shop.

Nothing is better than a pedicure when you are pregnant.  Treat yourself and pay for "extra" massage time!

Posted by Nicole_33    Friday, April 25, 2008 3:33 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Pedicures are the best!  Also, I have DH run the lotion bottle under warm water and then rub warm lotion on my growing belly.  Even if it doesn't prevent stretch marks, it feels great!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

I have found that a good book does wonders for me.  I also relax by doing yoga & taking a walk, but pregnancy complications are preventing that right now.  So for now, a good book & a day in the sun are my best bets.

Posted by princessjessa2002    Friday, April 25, 2008 3:46 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Take time for yourself.  Go take a yoga class and breathe.  With every inhalation and exhalation, fill your body with positive energy and gratefulness for the wonderful person you have become.  Then, go to bed early and get some extra rest!

Take a long, warm shower with your favorite body wash.  Then just relax and pamper yourself with fun lotions!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Easiest way to relax is to take a nap!  Being pregnant I don't sleep well at night so naps are very relaxing to me... also, just being able to put my feet up anywhere and eat a snoball (shaved ice - flavored!).  

Posted by dlrner    Friday, April 25, 2008 4:05 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

My favorite way to relax is by taking a nice hot long shower with a glass of red wine.  This is a nice way to end the day since I do it after my daughter is sleeping for the night so I get no interruptions.

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Put dad on child duty, grab some healthy munchies (they just make you feel better), and put your feet in the pool or in a bucket of water while relaxing. Start thinking about dreams and goals - meditate on you (not stressful stuff, like bills). Just chill as if you don't have a care in the world.

SLEEP! With pregnancy insomnia in those last few months, a long sunday afternoon nap while dad holds down the fort is the best gift you can give yourself and the little baby you're growing!

For pregnant women- go swimming!!!

pedicures are amazing-esp with the chairs that massage at the same time! just taking a bubble bath once in awhile with some candles and music is very refreshing! you must take care of yourself in order to take care of your family!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

To take 10 minutes for yourself everyday. Whether it is to take a hot shower without anyone screaming "Mommy!!!!", or read a few pages of a good book. It is always important to take just a few minutes to take care of yourself so you can be a happier Mommy to your babies!

Posted by MelissaPete    Friday, April 25, 2008 4:52 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Get a pedicure! And when the baby comes, take advantage of your husband watching the kiddo so you can get away for a bit.

Posted by jananddom    Friday, April 25, 2008 5:03 PM

My best tip would be to take a nap when baby is napping.  A little nap here and there really helps revitalize you.  Thanks for this giveaway.

The best relaxation technique for pregnant women?  Taking time out of the day to think about your little one.  It helps the stressors of the day just melt away.

Posted by dressy    Friday, April 25, 2008 5:04 PM


re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

I just had a baby, and personally, the best way to relax is to just sit back and picture what the little baby will be like! My days were so hectic... Running around buying stuff for the baby, trying to save money, having mood swings, fighting with my boyfriend... But as soon as I would just imagine what her little face would look like and how wonderful it would be to be a mommy, all that stress just melted away!!!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

The most relaxing evening I've had so far was spent with my husband, no TV, no lights, only the fireplace and candles.  We talked about anything and everything...work, the house, about this baby we'll meet in July!  It was a great way to relax together, and reconnect!

Posted by dnekolny    Friday, April 25, 2008 5:11 PM

Put on clothes and makeup that make you feel sexy, get a babysitter (if needed), and go on a real date with your husband.

I have a three month old baby and my husband works 60 hours a week. He took the day off from work and we went and got massages. It was the best way to relax!

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Mama Mio Supermama Kit

Pre-baby, take naps whenever you want because you can't do it forever, new moms, take naps when your baby naps.  As a new mom also be sure to take time for yourself every once in a while.  Have DH watch the baby and go get your nails done, go to lunch with the girls, or get a massage.
