Mini + Me | Hydramama

Designed by parents and backed by science, Hydramama®  is the drink you’ll need to support you through conception to postpartum. A new age isotonic drink, Hydramama®  uses bioavailable water-soluble forms of vitamins to help ensure the best level of absorption. Think of it as a tasty drink that has the added benefits of Electrolytes, Folate, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin C.

This liquid aid will help ease all those “head in a bowl” moments during pregnancy aka nausea, sickness, headaches and extreme dehydration. During labour, our drink works beautifully as an alternative to promote energy and after birth, acts as a tasty beverage to keep the milky goodness flowing. These easy-to-digest, quenching and sugar-free drinks will help to fill your cup (literally).

Mix one sachet in 250-450mls of water. Enjoy as required.

30 X 8G SACHETS ($1.33 per sachet)

 

The Benefits:

Replenish essential electrolytes
Efficient, quick hydration
Helps to combat nausea and replenish energy levels

Electrolyte Mineral Salts Blend: Magnesium Chloride, Sodium Chloride, Mono Potassium Phosphate, Sodium Citrate. This blend helps to ensure you are hydrated to the optimal level.

Vitamin C is vital for both mama and bub during pregnancy and for postpartum recovery, we chose to use a fruit-based ascorbic acid which is very quick absorbing.

Vitamin B6 is often prescribed for treating nausea and vomiting (those head in the bowl moments) and is a key ingredient in our formulation. We use a water soluble form of vitamin B6 called Pryidoxine Hydrochoride.

Methyl Folate Calcium (Methylated Folate) a form of folate which can be absorbed by everyone. This one is great for bub, their brain and spine whilst growing in your belly.
* Please note Hydramama is not designed to replace your prenatal vitamin.

Natural Sweetener (Erythritol - natural food grade derived from vegetable), Mineral Salts (Magnesium Chloride, Sodium Chloride, Mono Potassium Phosphate, Sodium Citrate) Natural Flavours derived from vegetable and fruits, Natural Colours derived from vegetables and fruits, Vitamins (Ascorbic Acid, L-Methyl Folate Calcium, Vitamin B6 - Pyridoxine Hydrochloride).

Directions:

Chilled:

Refrigerate for at least one hour before use. Insert each pad into a cotton sleeve before placing on your skin.

Frozen:

Keep in freezer for at least one hour before use. Once frozen, insert each pad into a cotton sleeve before placing on your skin. Do not apply frozen compression pads directly to the skin, as this can cause ice burns.

Heated:

Hot Water Method - We recommend heating your pads by submerging carefully in hot water for 3-5 minutes. Do not use boiling water. Drain water before removing pads. Once heated, handle pads with caution and insert each one into a cotton sleeve before placing on your skin. Do not apply hot compression pads directly to the skin as this can cause burns.

Microwave Method - Please be aware that microwaving pads can cause uneven heat distribution. Place pads on a clean, dry plate in the microwave for 20 seconds, then in five-second increments if needed. Ensure that the pad does not brush against the walls or ceiling of your microwave as it spins. The microwave carousel must be able to spin throughout the heating cycle. Once heated, handle pads with caution and insert each one into a cotton sleeve before placing on your skin. Do not apply hot compression pads directly to the skin as this can cause burns.

 

Care Instructions:

Hand wash compression pads regularly in warm soapy water. Wash cotton sleeves by hand or in a washing machine on a cold, delicate cycle. Hang to dry.

 

Caution:

Check product condition regularly. Replace if product shows any damage. Keep away from sharp objects. Only soft bristle brushes or soft sponges should be used to clean compression pads. Hard scourers may scratch the surface. Do not use this product for anything other than its intended use. Store product in a cool, dry place and avoid direct sunlight. Do not forcefully squeeze or shake at any time. Do not open or puncture pads. If pads leak, dispose of them immediately. For external use only, do not ingest. Do not apply to sensitive skin or open wounds. Do not fall asleep using pads. If gel comes into contact with eyes or skin, rinse thoroughly with warm water. For extreme, prolonged or chronic pain, contact your physician. This product is not a toy - keep out of reach of children and pets.
