Water retention during pregnancy: we have the solution!

One of the most common, and most annoying, symptoms of pregnancy is water retention.

This discomfort, mainly brought on by the changes in hormone levels and the pressure that the foetus is placing on various points of your circulatory system, is accentuated as gestation progresses, even more so during hot months.

In order to avoid water retention, you can perform special “hacks” within your daily routine which could help you avoid this discomfort, or at least delay it. One of these hacks is to maintain your levels of hydration by drinking all the water needed throughout the day.

How do you know what your adequate levels of hydration are?

Given that one of the main ways to combat water retention during pregnancy is to be correctly hydrated at all times, Solán de Cabras has created an application specially designed for future mums, through which they can control and maintain their levels of hydration during gestation and breastfeeding as well.

Somum

It is the app for smartphones, created by Solán de Cabras, that, together with a smart bracelet (wearable), will allow you to control your daily levels of hydration in a personalized and real-time manner.
