Have A Healthy Pregnancy With These Tips

Try not drive alone during the later stages of your pregnancy, just in case you were to go into labor. Being alone in your car when you water breaks can mean you will be yourself when you deliver. This could cause your baby to be born improperly and can cause health problems for you.

Even though you may be tempted to wear heels during your pregnancy, you should probably stick to wearing something that is pretty flat. You do not want to take chances on your legs and feet getting tired while you are walking somewhere and being at risk of falling and harming your child.

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.

Make sure that the extra calories you consume during pregnancy are nutritious ones. Try having a yogurt and fruit as a morning snack, and a sandwich with 2 ounces of chicken to add your calories without overeating. Do go ahead and splurge on a treat every once in a while.

If you have felt your baby moving around in your stomach, and then the movement stops for a few days, you should visit your doctor. Although this may mean nothing, there could be a problem with the baby that your doctor can help fix if taken care of in time.

Although weight gain is perfectly normal during pregnancy, rapid weight gain is not. If you see that you are gaining weight in a short time period (a few days or a week), you should call your doctor. This could be a sign that there is something wrong.

Avoid emptying the kitty's cat box during pregnancy. If there is no way to avoid this chore wear gloves and a mask. There is a small chance of contacting a parasitic infection called toxoplasmosis from cat stool. Since it takes 48 hours for the spores to become infectious, the litter box should also be changed everyday. It is also a good idea to wear gloves when gardening, since neighborhood cats often defecate in flowerbeds.

Having to urinate frequently is something a lot of women experience during pregnancy. As the pregnancy progresses, the need to urinate will become more frequent as well. One tip to help with this is, when you urinate lean forward to ensure the bladder is completely empty, this could help to lessen your restroom trips.

Pack your bags early. Don't wait until you are 37 weeks or later to finally pack your bag for the hospital. Obviously you want your baby to reach full gestation, but you never know when something is going to happen. Having your bag packed will give you peace of mind in case there is an unexpected event.

Let someone else change the cat litter while you're pregnant. Cat feces can contain Toxoplasmosis, which is very dangerous to a developing fetus. If you are exposed to it, your baby is exposed to it. Preventing exposure is easy. Just leave the kitty litter duties to your significant other for the next nine months.
