Staying properly hydrated during childbirth, in recovery and if you decide to breastfeed, is of critical importance. However, it can be difficult to reach for drinks without help and with everything else a new mum has to think about, drinking enough often slips down the priority list. The hydrant solves this problem throughout the entire maternity process. The Hydrant hands-free drinking bottle is invaluable for keeping new mothers properly hydrated. It is crucial:
- During pregnancy, when mobility can be uncomfortable and tiring
- During labour, when women often experience prolonged periods with little or restricted mobility
- In recovery following the birth, when soreness and discomfort can restrict mobility, particularly following a caesarean section
- At home, when the ongoing demands of recovery, caring for a new born and breastfeeding can mean staying hydrated is a chore
What makes the hydrant so clever? It hangs, hooks or clips onto almost anything: beds, nursing chairs, push chairs etc. For these reasons this refillable and BPA free water bottle is the must-have item on your maternity hospital baby bag check list. Here's what new mums have to say about the Hydrant:
“The Hydrant was an absolute lifesaver. It was brilliant to just grab the tube and drink. What a superb product! – every new Mum would love it both during and after birth… invaluable to those who have had Caesareans.” - Lizzie
"I took The Hydrant into hospital to use during labour and for afterwards – it was a total godsend. Just to have both of my own hands free to be able to squeeze my husband’s hand to pieces was worth it!" - Joanne
"Although I had a planned Caesarean, I didn’t appreciate the discomfort or difficulty I would have reaching or lifting a drink afterwards. I was in hospital for a week and without my Hydrant I would certainly have become dehydrated" - Dianne
