    PREGNANCY

    Pregnancy is that can make a mother feel happy. Keeping the baby in the womb to grow
    healthy and born alive is to be performed by a pregnant woman. The gestation period will
    determine the child's growth. Here we provide some tips on healthy during pregnancy.

    Visit a Physician Regularly


    During pregnancy, mothers can visit a physician/doctor regularly. Regularly check the
    baby in the womb is useful to know the condition and growth of the fetus. Likewise, if
    there is anything wrong in pregnancy should be immediately checked by a physician. Do
    this until the last month of pregnancy.

    Important Eat Nutritious Foods


    Begin to eat nutritious foods; it is important for pregnant women and fetal growth.
    Maternal diet usually eats small meals but often, about 5-6 times per day. It's better than
    eating large servings in 3 per day, a diet with smaller portions and more often to reduce
    nausea and vomiting in the morning, and stomach pain.

    Folic Acid and Zinc


    Healthy foods for pregnant mothers are foods that contain folic acid and zinc. Folic acid is
    useful for preventing neural tube defects in infants and spine. Foods that contain folic
    acid present in cereals, brown rice, oranges, green vegetables, beans, broccoli, and more.
    Zinc is useful to prevent anemia during pregnancy. Anemia is very dangerous for pregnant
    women, can cause bleeding during childbirth.

    Avoid Cigarette Smoke


    Cigarette and tobacco smoke are very harmful to the health of mother and fetus. Avoid
    cigarette smoke; try not to become passive smokers. If your husband is a smoker, warn not
    to smoke near you. And if you're also a smoker, stop smoking better. Cigarette smoke will
    make your baby born weighing less, easily hurt, slow growth; it can even cause
    miscarriage and death in the womb.

    Drinking Adequate Water


    Drinking adequate water is another important thing to note for pregnant women. Drinking
    lots of water is very useful for pregnant women, because the incoming fluid will help to
    increase the blood volume that occurs during pregnancy. Drink at least 6-8 glasses a day,
    can be fruit juice, milk, or water.

    Taking Medications Safely


    Be careful when taking some drugs. If you are attacked by a disease or pain, be careful
    taking drugs. You should immediately consult your physician before taking it. If you are
    pregnant and taking medication without rules would be harmful to the fetus in the womb.

    Remain Active During Pregnancy


    Pregnant women should remain active. Pregnant women can also do exercise such as
    walking. Taking a pregnancy exercise classes are also good, in addition to the benefits to
    the mother and fetus, the pregnant women in the class are able to share experiences and
    gain knowledge. In between activities, do not forget to rest

    Vaccination During Pregnancy


    Another important thing is vaccinated during pregnancy. Pregnant women should talk to
    their physicians to figure out which vaccines they might need and whether they should get
    them during pregnancy or wait until after their child is born. Hepatitis B, Influenza and
    Tetanus/Diphtheria are considered safe to give to women who might be at risk of
    infection.
