Tips On How To Have A Better Pregnancy

By Mommy's Joy

Remember, during pregnancy you are carrying another life in your hands. With that being said you want to make sure you are as informed as you can possibly be so you can nourish both, you and your child to the best of your ability. Here are some tips in this article to help you during your pregnancy.

You should change your eating habits to include healthy choices. If you change the way you eat now, when you become pregnant you will continue to eat healthy. You should eat a variety of foods but make sure they are healthy choices. Proper nutrition is important while trying to conceive.

Engage in Kegel exercises each day. This activity can improve your pelvic muscles, which affect your bladder, bowels and uterus. Kegels will help with your delivery, and they can be done just about anywhere, including in the car or at work. To do them correctly, you should squeeze like you want to stop yourself from using the bathroom. Hold this position for three seconds and then relax for three. Do this in sets of ten.

Don’t feel bad about needing to take care of yourself. You are growing a small person inside of you and you deserve to take a break! Eat more than you usually would, because you will need those extra pounds. Take a break after dinner and let your husband do the dishes. Its those small things that will add up and make you feel much better.

During your pregnancy it is important to get a full nights rest. Stress can be a major cause of not being able to sleep. If you are feeling stressed, find someone that you can talk to about the problems that you are having. Pregnancy can be a stressful thing and you should always talk about the things that are causing you stress.

If you are working at a desk job during your pregnancy, you will need to make sure that you have lots of times during the day that you can get up and walk. Sitting down will put extra stress on your tailbone and hips, which are already absorbing a great deal more weight. Taking walks and moving around frequently will help keep this from becoming a problem.

Make sure that you communicate with your partner (if you have one) about your feelings and your needs. You may know that you need to be touched or loved more often to feel supported, but they don’t. You have to tell them what you need before you can expect to receive it.

Pregnancy enhances the sense of smell and this new sensitivity can make previously pleasant smells become unpleasant triggers for nausea. To reduce the effect of smells that make you queasy, try carrying a hanky moistened with some lavender or lemon oils. You can use the scent as a buffer against odors that cause you to feel nauseated.

Start a journal or a pregnancy blog and post this online. Sharing your experiences can be very beneficial as the people who are reading your blog can offer you advice that is unique to your stage in pregnancy. Also, this will give you documentation of how you felt during each step of the process.

Keeping in mind you are dealing with not only your life but another you want to make sure you really digested all that you have learned. Pregnancy tips aren’t something you want to look over, so if you have to come back and reread this article from time to time until you feel like you remembered all the information in it, in the end you only want what’s best for you and your baby, and this article is trying to help you do that.
