Preparing For Pregnancy

Tips To Help In Preparing For Pregnancy
- Women should always check that their vaccinations are up to date. The main one is Rubella, if you contract Rubella during pregnancy this can cause your baby to have abnormalities such as deafness.
- If you or your partner are taking medications check with your Doctor that they are safe if you get pregnant. Some are not.
- If you have been on the pill sometimes Doctors will suggest waiting until you get your first normal period before trying to get pregnant.
- You should look at your eating habits and make sure you are eating a good balanced diet. Plenty of fresh vegetables and fruit. Also make sure you are drinking 6-8 glasses of water per day.
- If you are over weight it is sensible to try and get to your ideal weight before getting pregnant. Remember you will be putting on weight during your pregnancy and you will have to be very careful you do not get high blood pressure. Also you want to avoid diabetes whist pregnant. When you are pregnant you should not go on a diet as this can harm the developing baby.
- Smoking should be stopped once you decide to try to get pregnant. If you wait until you are pregnant those first 6 weeks of the baby’s development can be affected.
- Any form of drugs and alcohol should be stopped. Again this is important that you stop before you try to get pregnant. As both drugs and alcohol will impact on the baby’s health.
- It is now recognized that taking folic acid before getting pregnant and for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy is a very good idea. The folic acid will help prevent neural tube defects.
- Try to limit any stress. Exercise and any form of meditation will help.
