Healthy Pregnancy Tips

Healthy Pregnancy Tips




• Get plenty of rest, take it easy on yourself~ you are growing a human being!

• Eat to nourish your baby~ I recommend Dr. Brewer’s Pregnancy Diet

• Drink enough water~ your body weight divided by 2 in ounces everyday

• Loving exercise everyday~ walking, swimming or gentle yoga are best

• Squats help open your hips for an easier birth, sit/roll on a birth ball to loosen hips

• Relax~ your body needs to OPEN and RELAX for an easier birth

• Get sunshine everyday! Sunshine is also a great way to prevent post partum blues

• Breathe~ deep cleansing breaths

• Remember~ all a newborn really needs are parents that love him, warm snuggles, clean pants and mama’s milk

• Enjoy every moment! Enjoy this special time with your partner before your life changes forever. You will never be in this special place again.

• Don’t rush~ be patient with yourself and your baby. Your body and baby know when it is time to labor~ don’t rush~ Your body is wise. Even though every part of your being wants to see that sweet little face as soon as possible!
