Kegel8 Mother Nurture Labour TENS & Electronic Pelvic Toner

Kegel8 Mother Nurture has been especially designed as a 3-step system for pre-conception, labour and beyond.

Combining the power of a clinically-proven Kegel8 pelvic toner with a powerful labour TENS machine for when the big day arrives, Kegel8 Mother Nurture will help you in 3 great ways and is a must-have for any woman trying for a baby.

Pre-Conception

If you are thinking about trying for a baby, Kegel8 Mother Nurture features fantastic programmes to help you to get your pelvic floor muscles into their best ever shape before conception. During pregnancy, your pelvic floor has to carry the weight of your growing bump for 9 months, so it’s important that your pelvic floor muscles are strong to provide the best support for your baby and help with a smoother delivery. What’s more, with a strong pelvic floor you’ll have better bladder control and will be less likely to experience embarrassing leaks during pregnancy too. Kegel8 Mother Nurture features 2 brilliant pre-conception exercise programmes which work in just minutes a day to get your pelvic floor muscles strong and healthy for when you do become pregnant.

Labour

Kegel8 Mother Nurture features a powerful TENS machine pain relief programme, which helps to provide drug-free pain relief during labour. The labour TENS programme works with 4 skin electrodes placed either side of the spine. Mother Nurture sends a small electrical current to these electrodes, and this works to block pain signals from being sent to the brain and help to stimulate the body’s own natural painkilling endorphins. Between contractions, the TENS programme gives a soothing massage sensation, then during contractions you can press the BOOST button for an extra burst of pain relieving power.

Postnatal

Giving birth puts a great deal of stress on your pelvic floor muscles and Kegel8 Mother Nurture can help you get back in shape. Once you’ve had a successful 6-week midwife check-up, Kegel8 Mother Nurture’s unique ‘recovery’ programme will help your muscles to regain strength and help you to get back in pre-baby shape in just minutes a day.

Leaks after giving birth are incredibly common, with 1 in 3 new mums suffering to some degree. If you are one of these women, Kegel8 Mother Nurture feature programmes for stress incontinence, overactive bladder, urge and more to help you to take control and treat the problem quickly and easily.

What’s more, once you’re happy with your results and know that your muscles are strong and healthy, you can maintain your results with the easy-to-use weekly maintenance programme to keep your muscles strong and healthy for life.

Studies have shown that vaginal delivery induces urinary incontinence, especially following your first childbirth experience. The likelihood of a pelvic organ prolapse - this includes cystocele, rectocele, and uterine prolapse - and anal incontinence is increased as a result of vaginal delivery.  

Most often, urinary incontinence appears during pregnancy and remains postpartum. There factors that increase the risk of developing this troublesome condition include: 

• Urinary incontinence during pregnancy
• Twin pregnancies
• Gestational age at birth greater than or equal to 37 weeks
• Constipation during pregnancy

Stress urinary incontinence is the most common form of incontinence in women following natural childbirth. It is the most common form of incontinence in women after giving birth, followed by mixed incontinence and urge incontinence. Up to 75% of women suffer urinary incontinence during pregnancy and up to 31% of women continue to suffer postpartum. Over 75% of women who reported urinary incontinence three months after birth were still incontinent 12 years later.  

These stats and facts are not what you want to hear, but it's better to know early so you can prevent suffering later.
