Akua-Ba is a well fitting pregnancy top made out of thick and stretchy, fair trade cotton.  Which is nice to start with.
To make it special, it is complemented with an original, small wooden Akua-Ba doll that you can attach to the strings at the back of the shirt.  An old African legend says that ‘the doll brings luck and helps the mother to give birth to a beautiful child, not only in appearance but also in character’.
To make it extra special (and I love this part), for each top sold Akua-Ba gives a mosquito net to a pregnant woman in Burkina Faso (West-Africa).
A pregnant woman is 4 times more likely to get malaria.  In Africa 3,000 children die of this disease every day…   A mosquito net protects the mother and her child against malaria, both during her pregnancy and after.

Check the Akua-Ba website for retailers (Shak-shuka ships internationally).
