Things you must know about PREGNANCY

The moment you see those two positive lines on the pregnancy kit, your heart is filled with 1000s of emotions. It is the best part of a woman's life. The thought of carrying a life inside you fills you with excitement, terror, stress.....and the list of emotions one goes through is never ending.

Being pregnant is only a start. You have to take care of yourself more. You have to eat, drink, sleep....and even sometimes pee in a correct posture. Women these days are so busy in their lifestyle that they forget to take care of the life which is growing inside them.

We are going to discuss the major things that women ignore in pregnancy....which can leave a scar on their pregnancy.

• EAT HEALTHY---- Eating healthy does not mean that you have to eat all those green vegetables and soyabeans and all the stuff that you have never even tasted all your life. But eating healthy means that you should eat whatever you want to eat and your body can happily consume it. A food that is of your choice and not of someone else's. Remember whatever you eat 70% of that is consumed by your baby and you don't want to give birth to a malnutritioned child.

• LEAVE STRESS FOR OTHERS----The biggest enemy of your pregnancy is stress. The moment your pregnancy is confirmed , just leave the stress for others. Just enjoy each and every moment because this time once gone will never come back.The more you take stress the difficult it will be to deliver a healthy baby. Leave everything behind and share your emotions with your partner. laugh if you want to laugh, cry if you fell like but don't hold your emotions. Let them flow easily.

• TAKE PROPER SLEEP---- Your body is working 24X7 and, it needs rest too. The moment you sleep your brain can focus itself in the growth of your child. Take small naps whenever possible. Try to sleep for at least 9 hours. Lack of sleep will make you feel more and more uncomfortable and fatigued. Don't let it hamper your daily routine. Leave all the assignments aside. Forget about everyone and take out time for yourself. Spend quality time in resting and doing your favourite things.

• KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOUR DOCTOR---- Here I am especially referring to the first timers. Do not ignore any problem that you are facing. Just go and talk to you Gynecologist or mid wife about the issue. They are the best people to examine and prescribe a solution. Never opt for medicines over the counter or without the permission of your doctor.

• THINK POSITIVE---- It is very difficult to stay focused on the positive things only but try and be positive about your pregnancy. Whatever will happen will be the best for you. Do not let any negativity hamper your happiness. The women who think negative are seemed to have worse experiences in pregnancy. Try meditation and yoga and try to focus on the best things and memories.
