once again Congrats to you & your husband. Enjoy !! archie replied. Venus,
thanks for your words and I wish you and your spouse very happy and easy pregnancy.

Much is said by Rupa, I will just add a few things.

Don'ts
do not drink tea, coffee or anything contains caffine.
do not eat raw eggs or raw egg containing stuff.
no salad dressings,
only home made hand washed salads,
no cheese in first trimester,
avoid fish
unless warned intercours is safe but why to risk, wait for next appointment and check with your ob about this. This will depends on your cervix situation and also placenta.
do't eat too greasy stuff can lead to nausea and vomitings.

dos
drink milk twice a day, boil and cool by yourself don't take it from aisle and drink like that
eat fresh fruits and fruit juice(S).
Drink at least 10 1-2 glasses of water.

any concern give a call to your OB or come here.

Archie Rupa replied. Hello there,

My hearty congrats to u and ur DH.U r blessed and so will the little angel who will be coming into this world in no time.

Well dear dos and donts..i am not an expert in this..bcos i am waiting to conceive....hvnt been blessed yet....hopefulyl soon with all ur prayers.

Even though i hvnt experienced this...i have heard a lot about this....so here i go...

Dos

1) Eat a healthy diet...including a lot of fruits and vegetables in ur meals (skip papayas, mangoes, pineapples, sesame seeds - these are all heaty stuff, u shld stay away atleast for the first 4 to 5 months).

2) Take 3 meals a day and if u still feel hungry much on something but make sure its not too fatty stuff...bcos putting on too much weight can cause discomfort.

3) Go for a brisk walk for some time in the first 3 months....and then u can increase the time later.

4) Have proper sleep and rest.

5) Enjoy it and think of all the nice things thts going to happen soon.(At times u can get ur hubby to pamper u).

6) Go for your regular checkups and make sure u clear ur doubts with the doc.



Donts

1)Dont lift heavy stuff, jump, run around or do any work tht requires a lot of stress....

2) Dont worry a lot abt issues....anything u hve either consult with ur doc and at the same time write to us for advise.

3) Dont take any medication without enquiring with the docs...bcos some can be harmful for the little one.

4) DOnt take much oily food.

5) Try not to engage in intercourse with ur hubby in the first 3 months and incase u want to check with ur doc first..she will let u knw if its ok to....just to play it safe u knw..wht i mean rite...

Well girl thts abt it....i am sure theres lot of more better advises tht friends can give u.....

search the net....u will knw wht to do...

Hope u hve a smooth pregnancy....and while u r at it..enjoy it...

Regards

RUps
