Things to think about if you’re moving while pregnant

If one of the reasons why you’re moving is because you or your partner is pregnant then you have a few additional things to consider when it comes to your move, and here at Removals Unlimited we’re very happy to help. Of course, it’s very exciting to be growing your family and moving to a new home, but this can also cause stress.

As an article for Newsgram noted, stress is not good during pregnancy, so it’s important to minimise your stress levels as much as possible. We know that moving home is one of the most stressful life events we experience, so consider how you can make the experience less intense when you’re pregnant.

Making sure that you book your removals firm in Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch or Ringwood well ahead of your moving date is a great idea to reduce stress, for example. When you know that you have a team of trained professional movers ready for the big day, you will feel a lot less anxious about the move itself.

It might sound obvious, but it’s also important to avoid heavy lifting when you’re pregnant. As Parents.com explained, when you’re pregnant your body produces a hormone called relaxin to loosen the ligaments ahead of labour. This means it’s not safe to put too great a strain on your body, even in the earlier stages of pregnancy.

If you are set on assisting with the packing and moving, make sure you only lift light items and smaller amounts of your belongings in one go.

However, you could sit back and relax (quite literally) if you choose our full packing service. We pack, move and store, so we can take care of every aspect of your move for you without you needing to lift a finger.

All you’ll need to think about is packing your overnight bag so that you have everything you need for a comfy first few nights in your new home. We can do the rest. Our team of trained professional packers and movers will make sure that all of your possessions are neatly and securely packed ahead of your moving day.

We’ll provide all of the packing supplies too, so you won’t need to worry about finding the right number of boxes or making sure you have tape and bubble wrap to hand.

When you’re ready to move to your new abode, we do all the heavy lifting, taking all of your boxes, furniture and other possessions to your new property. We can even dismantle and reassemble furniture if this is something you also need assistance with.

At Removals Unlimited, we take great pride in making every move as simple as possible and providing our customers with the best possible service. We are also all non-smokers, so you can rest assured that whether you’re in your current home or waiting at your new one, you’ll be in a clean and safe environment.

Whether you are preparing for a rental to rental move in Bournemouth, or a sale to purchase move in Christchurch, get in touch with us today to find out more about our services and to arrange for a free, no-obligation quote so that you can start planning your move.

Let us do the heavy lifting and reduce your stress so that you can focus on getting your new home ready for your baby’s arrival.
