pregnancy tips

Hi, I am mom again and I am sharing my thoughts and experiences as a mother and a woman. So many small tips that helped me, though I had to do a lot of searching for it, the first time and this time I am better prepared.

Some tips for pregnancy

1. Easy way to help with morning sickness is some kind of dry less sugary biscuits, like Marie, etc, if no biscuits are available then toasted bread does the trick as well. But they should be had without anything to drink, not even water.

2. Avoid jaggery (gur) as it does increase the sugar levels of the body, take less sugar.

3. Take lots of water, less water means dehydrated body, and higher chance of premature labour.

4. Try natural products like spinach, liver of chicken or sheep /goat to increase iron content in the body as compared to taking medicines, if taken regularly in the last 2 months of pregnancy, it does increase the quality of the skin of the baby, makes it quite nice..

5. Coconut Water is very good feel for the baby, if possible one a day.

6. Sleep well.

8. Wearing pregnancy support belts generally help to take off the weight from the back and redistributes it throughout the body, reducing back ache.

9. regular feet massage helps reduce the water retention in the feet, sleeping with a pillow under the feet also helps.

10. Staying happy and stressfree during the pregnancy, helps the baby inside to be calm as well, it does help alot after the baby is out, as the baby cries less, throws less tantrums, and is easy to settle.
