3 Tips Expecting Mothers Should Know

Are you pregnant with your first child? Are you worried about what to expect? Not sure if you should eat for 2 or 1? I know exactly how you feel! In this article I will discuss 3 tips every expecting mother should know!

1. Morning Sickness: This is usually the first indicator that you're pregnant. Most women get really bad morning sickness while some get it mildly and others don't get it all. Remember that you might not have morning sickness in the same way with all of your pregnancies.

2. Gaining Weight: Weight gain is inevitable with a pregnancy, however not to worry, I have gained weight with every pregnancy, and I have managed to lose it again. Just be aware that you will gain weight. However, do not believe the myth that you need to eat for two, because you don't! Just eat your normal portions and stop when you're full. This will prevent excessive weight gain. One way to keep yourself from gaining weight will be to go walking for 30 minutes a day.

3. Cut out Caffeine: Unless you're drinking green tea, cut out all other caffeine drinks, like soda, coffee, tea, etc. This will be better for you and the baby; caffeine can increase the risk of miscarriage, the risk of low birth weight and premature birth, and can cause your bones to lose calcium, as well as increase both blood pressure and heart rate! Not to mention keep you awake at night!

I want to leave you on this note; motherhood is a blessing and a joy. No matter what happens during your pregnancy, always remember that it is gift inside of you, and accept it as you do all of your other gifts, with joy and delight!!
