Why Natural Pregnancy Skincare is the Perfect Baby Shower Gift!

When choosing a baby shower gift, it’s easy to focus on cute baby clothes and toys. But what about mum? She deserves to feel cared for and pampered too.

Natural pregnancy skincare is a beautiful way to:

✔️ Nourish her skin safely
Pregnancy-safe oils like jojoba, golden jojoba oil, and vitamin E support her stretching belly without harsh chemicals or synthetic fragrances.

✔️ Encourage relaxation and self-care
Pregnancy can bring discomfort and overwhelm. Using a soothing belly oil each evening becomes a calming ritual to connect with her growing baby. It’s also a lovely way for partners to get invloved. A recent testimonial from an expectant mother who uses our Bloom Pregnancy Belly oil said:

‘‘ My partner loves to massage your belly oil onto my belly each evening and it’s become such a gorgeous ritual for baby and dad to connect’’

✔️ Avoid unwanted reactions
Many conventional products contain ingredients that pregnant women prefer to avoid. Choosing natural skincare shows you’ve considered her health and wellbeing.Pregnancy is one of the biggest changes your body will ever go through. Your belly grows daily to make space for your little one, and your skin needs all the support it can get to stay supple, comfortable, and healthy.

At Wild Atlantic Wellness we created our safe pregnancy and post-natal range with mums in mind. Our range of Belly oils and Post- Natal are pregnancy safe and a would make a wonderful gift for new mothers.

What is a belly oil?

A belly oil is a nourishing blend of plant-based oils (and sometimes gentle essential oils) designed to:

✔️ Hydrate and soften your stretching skin
✔️ Reduce feelings of tightness and itchiness
✔️ Help prevent dryness and maintain elasticity
✔️ Encourage daily self-massage to bond with your baby

Why we created our Pregnancy Belly Oil

When I was pregnant with my son, I struggled with feeling disconnected from my changing body. Using a nourishing belly oil each morning helped me connect with my baby, love my body’s changes, and prevent tightness or dryness.

I wanted to create a blend that would not only support the skin through its changes but also provide emotional support through the essential oils included in the blend.

I formulated this blend with:

Organic cold-pressed oils for maximum nutrition
Gentle essential oils for skin health and emotional support
No synthetic fragrances or harsh preservatives – just pure plant goodness

Why use essential oils in pregnancy?

Essential oils can be a beautiful way to support your wellbeing during pregnancy. They can:

✔️ Help calm anxiety
✔️ Soothe tired muscles
✔️ Nourish your skin as it stretches
✔️ Create peaceful moments to bond with your baby

First time mums often feel nervous about what’s safe to use. My handmade aromatherapy products are crafted with care, using only pregnancy-safe ingredients for her peace of mind. Check out our blog post on The Benefits of Aromatherapy during Pregnancy
