Be sure to stay active while pregnant. Use low-impact exercises - walking and swimming - that keep you moving without putting too much stress on your body. This will help prevent excess pregnancy weight gain, improve the quality of your sleep, and increase circulation to your lower limbs, all of which can be a challenge when pregnant.

 

If you experience any vaginal bleeding when you are pregnant, it is important that you go to your doctor or to the emergency room right away. Although it may be nothing, vaginal bleeding could be a sign that the baby is in distress, or worse, that you are having a miscarriage.

 

Try not to wear clothing that is too tight when pregnant. This kind of clothing can actually cause your fetus to not get enough oxygen and make you uncomfortable. There are maternity jeans available for pregnant women. Also, when at home, try to wear sweatpants or pajama bottoms with a loose T-shirt.

 

Walk around the facilities of the place that you will be giving birth. If you are comfortable in a facility, your labor goes easier. If it's an option, look into a couple different places. The facility should be comfortable for you, as well as your partner.

 

Take the time to investigate what premature labor looks like and when you need to go to the hospital. Of course, hopefully, you'll never have a need to actually use the information. But knowing how to recognize early labor, and what to do about it, could save your baby. The faster your response to preterm labor is, the better the overall outcome will be.

 

If you want to know the sex of your baby, you have to wait until you are about 20 weeks pregnant. This is around the time that the ultrasound technician can get a clear picture as to what gender your baby is. But be aware, ultrasounds are not 100 percent accurate!

 

Make sure you are getting enough protein in your diet when you are pregnant. This healthy nutrient is beneficial to both you and your baby. Some of the foods you can eat that have a high protein content are beans, nuts, chicken, eggs, meats, seeds, and soy products.

 

When you find out you are pregnant the first thing you want to do is go to see the doctor, especially if you feel you have found out late in the pregnancy. This will make sure the doctor has a good look at your health and the child's health and gets you on a program to fit the two of you best.

 

With everything you've got going on during pregnancy, time is probably short so hopefully this article has given you some very useful information that will make your pregnancy a little bit easier and less stressful. Despite the fact that you have so many things to do and so much care to take, pregnancy should be one of the most amazing experiences of your life!
