Ever hear of the hormone relaxin? Should a dad ever talk to mom about getting back to her pre-pregnancy figure? In this episode, Daddy Clay talks to Julie Jumonville of UpSpring Baby, makers of Walking Wings and Milkscreen, about their new product called Shrinkx Hips which is designed to provide constant, even pressure to guide a mom's hips back to their pre-pregnancy position.
CLAY Hey there, welcome back to the Lab. I’m wearing Julie’s girdle.
CLAYHey there, welcome back to the Lab I’m Daddy Clay and I’m here with Julie Jumonville creator of milk screen and walking wings. But they got a new product that for some reason I’m wearing.
JULIE And that product is called Shrinkx Hips Daddy Clay. As we are standing here your hips might be shrinking.
CLAY I shouldn’t be wearing this should I? Because it’s not going to do me any good.
JULIE But for mom it’s an amazing product. Where your in your last trimester there is a hormone called relaxin that releases into your system.
CLAY And that helps mom be calm and not be crazy about nesting.
JULIE It actually helps the bones and joints loosen up for birth. The interesting thing is that relaxin stays in your system 8 weeks after birth. With shrinkx hips and the hormone relaxin you’re going to be able to narrow your hips by wearing this belt at home under your clothes or over your PJ’s while you’re in that first 6 to 8 weeks of post partum.
CLAY So this is a nice way for mom’s to recover the pre-pregnancy body. It is ever ok for a dad to express concern for post partum weight gain?
JULIE Just to be honest I would rather hear that from a girlfriend.
