Dear mum-to-be,

Your skin goes through a lot during pregnancy. Hormones can make it dry and itchy, and it is stretched, especially on your stomach. Our body lotion has a soothing effect thanks to its natural oils, provides plenty of moisture and embraces you in a mild fragrance.

My tip as a midwife is to drink plenty of water and take the time to apply cream every day. And if the skin on your stomach feels especially taut, a sea salt bath can provide relief.

Nurtures and relaxes:
This rich skincare lotion with extracts of rose hip, sea buckthorn and green tea is quickly absorbed, makes the skin supple and prevents stretch marks.

Dear mum-to-be,

A warming shower feels just great, especially as your waistline expands. We developed our shower cream precisely for little moments of respite like that, tailoring it to your skin’s needs during pregnancy. It is replenishing, with a fragrance that even sensitive mums-to-be find pleasant.

My tip as a midwife is to go swimming:
it can be a great relief to take the weight off your legs and stomach and ease back pain. That’s why our shower cream fits perfectly in your bag for a trip to the swimming pool.

Cleans and nurtures:
This soothing shower cream gently cleans your skin, reducing feelings of tautness, and nurtures it with replenishing rice bran oil and valuable sea buckthorn extract.

Dear mum-to-be,

In the early stages of pregnancy in particular, your hormones can upset the balance of your skin slightly. Whether or not this causes blemishes, your skin will benefit from using our cleansing gel on a daily basis.

My tip as a midwife is to cleanse your face thoroughly and then, rather than letting a few spots spoil this exciting time, list at least five nice things about yourself.

Cleans and clears:
This gentle gel with green tea extract thoroughly cleanses the delicate skin on your face without drying it out, making it effective against blemishes, even before they appear.

Dear mum, 

Being able to breastfeed is a wonderful thing. Your own body supplies everything your baby needs at just the right temperature. Especially when you start out, strong sucking can lead to small, painful cracks in your nipples. After breastfeeding, one squirt of nipple balm per breast will cool, calm and care for your nipples. Remember to remove any remaining product with a damp cloth before you breastfeed again.

My tip as a midwife is to concentrate on your attachment technique. 

Cools and calms:
This cooling gel calms and cares for stressed nipples with extracts of aloe vera, chamomile flowers and liquorice.

Dear mum,

A caesarean section cuts through a large number of muscles and nerves. Sometimes, the scarring can feel stiff or even numb. This dermaroller restores the skin’s elasticity and helps soften hard scar tissue.

My tip as a midwife is to massage the scar twice a day for 2 to 3 minutes.

Nurtures and softens:
This dermaroller improves the elasticity and suppleness of scarred skin.

Our TUJU Nappy Bag contains two of our full-sized TUJU products for mums-to-be and growing bellies:

Pregnancy changes our body. It gives this new life a warm bed where it can get rounder and grow. And stretch marks can be part of the process. Our Stretch Mark Oil cannot simply make them go away – but it can strengthen your connective tissue, provide moisture and lower any feelings of tension. It improves your skin’s elasticity and firmness – helping to prevent stretch marks from forming.

With our Cleansing Face Gel, we want to show you that you are beautiful! Take a close look! It cleanses gently, reduces impurities or even prevents them. Most importantly: it does not dry out your skin.

What’s more, each of our products features a QR code which you can scan to gain additional helpful tips from our TUJU midwife Kerstin Lüking.

We’ve also added some samples to the Nappy Bag for trying out additional products. As well as a flyer from our friend, the paediatrician, who dedicates her courses to the topic of first aid for babies and children.
