Up to 80% of pregnant women experience circulation problems during pregnancy. Swollen ankles and feet. Tired, aching legs. Varicose and spider veins. Your blood volume increases 50% during pregnancy while your growing uterus presses on pelvic veins, slowing blood flow. Medical grade compression socks solve this. They apply graduated pressure - highest at your ankle, decreasing up your leg - to push blood toward your heart and prevent pooling. Our Cake Maternity copper-infused compression socks provide 20-30mmHg medical grade compression proven to reduce swelling and prevent varicose veins during pregnancy.
Compression socks do more than reduce swelling. They increase blood flow to your placenta, improving oxygen delivery to your baby. They reduce morning sickness in some women. They prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and blood clots - critical during pregnancy when blood clot risk increases 5 times. They help during flights - pregnant women should wear compression on any flight over 4 hours. They reduce leg cramps and restless legs at night. The copper yarn woven into the soles is antibacterial, prevents odor, and stimulates circulation while fighting fatigue. Start wearing them in your second trimester before problems develop.
Buy compression socks with 20-30mmHg medical grade compression. This therapeutic range treats moderate to severe pregnancy swelling without requiring a prescription. Wear them daily when standing, sitting, or traveling. They should feel snug but not painful. You may need help putting them on in late pregnancy - this is normal for effective compression. Remove at night unless your healthcare provider advises otherwise. Shop pregnancy accessories at Mumgerie with free shipping over $150.
