Expectant mom’s guide

Treat yourself right

That alien creature you’re carrying doesn’t just take over your belly: Your back, shoulders, feet, skin—even your relationship—will feel the effects of your extra weight and raging hormones. Here’s how to pamper yourself back to a state of maternal bliss.

Pregnancy woe: Postnatal blahs! You’re sleep-deprived, covered with spitup and still packing 20 extra pounds.
Pampering plan: Take your mother up on her offer to babysit, and splurge on a few hours of aquatic bliss at the Great Jones Spa. The postnatal massage—which focuses on new-mom issues such as distended muscles and sore shoulders—will be your reason for going there, but make sure you leave time to groove out in the indoor water lounge. This hidden tropical paradise features a three-story indoor waterfall, a hot tub (you couldn’t use it while you were pregnant, so enjoy it now!), a cold plunge pool and a smoothie bar. You’ll come out feeling as pampered as a supermodel—or at least a supermom. 90-minute postnatal massage, $190. Great Jones Spa, 29 Great Jones St at Lafayette St (212-505-3185, gjspa.com)
