NICU Graduate Tshirts & Gifts

Posted by kim on August 4, 2010

When my girls finally got to leave the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, the nurses gave them cute little shirts saying “NICU Graduate” with the hospital name and year on them. They have since stopped giving them away due to budget restraints which I totally understand – I’m all for keeping healthcare costs down. But I love the whole “NICU Graduate” concept, so I was happy to see that CafePress offers dozens of designs to order your own NICU Graduate Merchandise where you can get such items as a bib, custom tshirt, ornament, onesie and more.

CafePress also offers a huge selection of personalized gifts and unique t-shirts (including sports tshirts featured on the blog “Death by T-Shirt“), clothing, mugs, art & posters. They have millions of designs from shopkeepers around the world that range from funny to cool to promotional.

Compression Stockings for Pregnant Mothers

Posted by kim on March 26, 2010

During pregnancy, especially high-risk pregnancies such as carrying multiples, women may experience many changes to their bodies. Pregnancy can add pressure to the veins and legs causing circulatory symptoms such as swelling, spider veins and varicose veins. Maternity stockings / compression hosiery addresses these circulatory symptoms that are most prominent in ankles and lower legs by increasing blood flow from the legs back to the heart. Maternity compression stockings control swelling in ankles, spider veins and varicose veins that occur during pregnancy. Maternity hose support stockings feature materials that are knit with specially covered yarns for added softness, stretchiness and moisture-heat management. An expandable body section fits your body as your pregnancy progresses.

Some tips for healthier veins during pregnancy include elavating your legs above the level of your heart while you rest, avoid long periods of standing or sitting, take breaks and do some healthy leg exercises. Also avoid tight-fitting undergarments and hot temperatures, such as hot baths, sauna and sunbathing.
