Some tips to follow for a healthy pregnancy are as follows;

• • Eat healthy food: Eating healthy is important for every pregnant woman. Your baby needs these nutrients to develop and grow healthy. Eat plenty of colorful fruits and vegetables, whole grains, calcium-rich foods, and low in saturated fat.
  • Take a prenatal vitamin regularly: Taking a prenatal multivitamin regularly can help you get the right amount of essential nutrients for you and your baby during pregnancy.
  • Stay hydrated: The body of a pregnant woman needs more water than before. Make sure to have at least eight or more glasses of water each day.
  • Go to your prenatal care checkup: Women should seek regular prenatal care from a health care provider. Those who do not receive regular prenatal care are more likely to have a child with low birth weight or other complications.
  • Avoid certain foods: There are certain foods that women should avoid during pregnancy such as Raw meat, Liver, sushi, raw eggs (also in mayonnaise), Soft cheese, and Unpasteurized milk.
  • Avoid alcohol: Do not drink alcohol before and during pregnancy and during breastfeeding. It increases the risk of having a child with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). FASD can cause abnormal facial symptoms, severe learning disabilities, and behavioral problems.
  • Do not smoke: Smoking is unhealthy for you and your unborn child. It increases the risk of sudden infant death syndrome, premature birth, miscarriage, and other poor outcomes.
  • Be physically active: Being active in daily exercise or other ways can help you stay healthy during pregnancy. Check with your gynecologist to find out how much physical activity is right for you.
  • Get the flu shot: Fever can make a pregnant woman very unwell and increase the risk of complications for your baby. The flu shot protects you from serious illness and helps protect your baby after birth.
  • Get enough sleep: Getting enough sleep (7 to 9 hours) is important for you and your child.
