Adopt a healthy lifestyle

Your body is changing and gradually transformed as it houses and built another body, it is absolutely essential to keep a good balance early adopting a healthy lifestyle.
In some sections ( "Power", "beauty") the subject is already completed; therefore I will not repeat what I have previously explained. Indeed, adopting a healthy lifestyle needs to eat well and take care of his body. However, other patterns should be taken early in your pregnancy.

Rest

Namely household is crucial because you soon feel that you are more tired than usual. However, this does not mean that no more should be done. Indeed, some women under the pretext that they are pregnant, stop all activity and refuse to make any effort! Adopting this kind of behavior may annoy and weary very quickly around you.
Other women, however, act as if nothing were continuing to conduct business at a breakneck pace.
Wisdom needed to adopt a balance. The excess in one direction or another, is never good.
It is recommended to sleep about 8 hours a night and take naps whenever you feel the need: Know listen to your body, it is your best guide.
Avoid endless evenings with friends or nightclub. Do not stand several hours away.
During your pregnancy, you will feel often oppressed; nothing more normal because you consume oxygen for two. If this lack of air becomes unbearable, ventilate all parts of the house, sleep with an open window and walk at least once a day.

The toilet

You sweat more because your body expels all that baby rejects. Therefore, wash your multiplying more baths and showers. I have a clear preference for baths that promote relaxation and baby seem to love (in fact, soon as I get in the bath, baby multiplies its movements).
When you feel your time of birth to get to the corner and only if you have not yet lost water, immerse yourself in a warm bath before going to motherhood.
Your vaginal secretions are more abundant and sometimes embarrassing. They are due to pregnancy hormones.
The best is to do two to three external toilets daily with a suitable soap (neutral ph) because your vaginal flora is particularly fragile.

Sex

It is very common to hear some couples say they are afraid of hurting the baby.
N 'Have no fear, baby in a bubble is perfectly protected and feels nothing.
For the rest, everything is a matter of envy!
And, as is well known, the cravings of pregnant women vary ...
At one point, it is the libido exploding (to the delight of dad!), Another is flat calm (note use the well-known alternative ways to not frustrate dad ... ) and finally, it is the ups and downs period (a great lover tonight and at all the next evening: dad will not know what to think!).
In the third trimester, you will have trouble moving and every sexual prompted an effort. At this stage, the tenderness is required and it is time to find new more comfortable positions.
However, be careful if you threatened miscarriage in early pregnancy or if there is risk of preterm delivery.

Bad habits: alcohol and tobacco

It is so well known that it seems almost unnecessary to repeat that tobacco, alcohol and pregnancy do not mix at all.
In fact, your baby absorbs the nicotine and alcohol by the exchange of the placenta. Some studies have shown the problems that are likely to have babies "smoking": premature birth, lower weight of 10% compared to normal ...
That is why doctors advise to quit or significantly reduce tobacco consumption.

The sport

A practice regularly and not excessively sport is good for your health; Indeed, you will feel much better and more quickly recover your silhouette.
Walking, gymnastics and swimming are the most suitable sports to pregnancy.
However, abandon violent sports and those that can lead to falls such as horseback riding, skiing, windsurfing, and team sports.
From the 6th month, tennis is highly discouraged.
