All Mums have been a Mum to be, we understand everything that pregnancy throws at us. From finding out we are pregnant, to the sickness, the emotions and much more. As we do all we can to ensure our baby grows. Here we look at Keeping Cool With Mamas Moments Essential Kit.
When I was pregnant with C, I was pregnant through out the summer. Once I had got over the 24/7 sickness and could finally return back to work. I had to endure the hottest days of summer with what felt like a hot water bottle strapped to me. I would literally walk in from work, strip off and sit in front of the fan to try to cool down.
Forecasters are predicting that the UK will have one of the hottest summers in a decade, which is great, but not so great for any mum to be. The Natural Birthing Company understand how this affects pregnant mums to be and have the perfect kit to help keep you cool during the long hot summer days and nights.

Have you seen my other great giveaways
A partner with a fan 🙂
Lots of essential oils and fans.
A cold flannel
I actually think not over-prepping helps. A lot of the time things don’t go to the birth plan, so it’s best not to be too focussed on having things a certain way during the birth!
A face spritzer is great for keeping cool.
Wet a towel, carefully fold it up a few times and place inside a freezer bag. Keep in in the freezer for the times you really need it!
A nice fan and lots of water!
My partner had multiple fans, and also used cooling sprays.
A handheld fan, it not only cooled me down but also gave my husband something to do(he was a great fan holder)
I’d love to win for my daughter. Her second baby is due October, she would love this set
essential oils on my wrists and temples – but, not all essential oils are suitable, so do your research before using. tangerine essential oil in a coconut carrier oil is good to prevent stretch marks ,prior to birthing, too x
A fan at night and always carry a bottle of facial spray in my bag. Lifesaver xx
I would love this for my friend – already stressed with a surprised lockdown baby.
Got to be my Mum could not have got threw it without her
What an incredible bundle ❤ this would be perfect for my first birth in October
This would be lovely, I’m expecting in November and this would be so beneficial, thank you!
A handheld fan
I love a cold wet flannel, and my husband to look after me
pain relief
My top tip to staying cool, is buy one of those spray water fans add a few ice cubes to it and spray on the points like the back of your neck, your wrists and its also very good to soak your feet in bucket full of ice and water. It’s helped me alot when I had my twins in the middle of a heat wave.
A Nice Big Fan to keep Cool
drink lots and lots of water!!
Entering for my best friend who is due on New Years Eve with her first, eeek!
Keep a spray bottle next to your bed so you can spritz your face if you get hot in the night
WOW, looks great.
keep flannels cool in the fridge and use a hand held mini fan
My daughter is due to have her second baby in August. Not a good time of year to be pregnant or having a baby … any help is appreciated
A huge bottle of water by my side – small sips of cold water throughout the day helps me keep cool!
My daughter is due next week and have been told no fans allowed because of the pandemic so will have to be good old damp flannel to keep her cool. She would love this set
I loved my birthing ball!
I’ve never had children but my sister said she had a hand held fan and some lavender spray that really helped her
definitely a fan!
Mini flapjacks were an absolute lifesaver in previous births, perfect to munch quick between contractions to keep your energy up 👍
Lucozade energy tablets – I couldn’t eat much else during my long labour
My partner’s hand so I could squeeze the life out of it!
Keep a spray bottle of water to cool down your face and body
mini hand held fan!
I used all the gas and air possible!
This sounds like such a good set for to be mums, anything to help relax mums and be calm x
Music – it’s always good to have the tunes you love to distract with a little singalong xx
My first baby is due in October, fingers crossed all goes to plan and a few items like this would come in handy.
I use a a spray bottle filled with cold water to spray myself with and with a fan on aswell it’s extra cooling.
I had a waterbirth and, despite the water being quite warm, dipping into that cooled me down!
i loved my pregnancy pillow
A face spritz is a must, my daughter is due later this month so this would be perfect
I’m due to give birth to my first in July. I intend to keep cool by getting my partner to spritz me cool water 💧😎This looks great!
My husband calmly reminding me how and when to breathe, whilst hypnobirthing in our bath at home meant I had the most beautiful births with my two children
My must have birthing aid was Lucozade sport to keep my energy levels up
Looks so fab!
A flannel / little mini fan
My top tip for keeping cool is to soak a towel in cold water and then lay on it.
looks like a handy kit
Loved having an electric handheld fan with little stand
brilliant im expecting my little one in August x
I am pregnant with my first child so reading these comments for advice is helpful
Had to have the fan going in the bedroom. It was cooling, but also produced white noise which was very soothing and induced sleep.
A fan on at all times
Would love this for my sister who is expecting her first baby in August. I don’t have any birth tips but my top top for keeping cool is drink lots of water!
My aid was the radio playing soothing classical music, it helped me concentrate on breathing through each contraction
This would be amazing for my expectant daughter who is always late for everything thanks
Taking a bit of time for yourself!
I remember being pregnant with my first during the summer and my husband went and bought me an air con unit and I spent so much time in my bedroom stripped off with the air con unit on 🤣
Stretch mark cream ! So soothing pre and post pregnancy
My sister couldn’t live without her pregnancy pillow when she was pregnant she said it helped her have a more comfortable sleep 🙂
I’d love to win this for my pregnant wife. We’re expecting our first child in September and anything to help us through this crazy time would be great.
