Therefore, in order to create self-reliance and full readiness to confront the responsibilities of pregnancy and childbirth. Pregnant women to take care of themselves and their health before anything else.

Sleep and rest:

A pregnant woman should sleep eight hours to ten a day at night, and for an hour after lunch at noon, women feel much urgent need to sleep in the first months of pregnancy, and this is a natural phenomenon holder can sleep where as you want, but during the last months of pregnancy. It has to sleep on her back or on a Jnbhe so as not to disturb her.

Bathing and swimming:

You can shower and standing in a bathtub, and get Hadhira feet slip or fall in the bath or dish is on the blink, because the balance is to be fixed in the last months of pregnancy. With regard to swim, it is harmful to cradle her health condition to be intact and complaining of pregnancy complications. And swimming should be engaged in quiet pools clean water in abundance are acceptable and should not be exposure to the sun for only a very short time.

Sir Sports:

You can engage in physical exercise in the open air and walk on the most important stages at the rate of one kilometer per day. Sir for half an hour a day increases the amount of oxygen in the blood. The sport stressful and cruel Evger undesirable. It is also the duty to refrain from carrying heavy things weight and exposure to violent in the car for some shakiness and amusement games.

Alcoholic beverages:

A pregnant woman should be aware that the amount of alcohol you eat whatever slim in its view, it quickly reaches the blood of the fetus through the placenta and affect it in another matter.

Also, a lot of alcohol or addiction because of serious complications in pregnancy, such as premature birth, early miscarriage and diabetes.

Baltdaan willing to take care of breastfeeding:

Cleans breasts daily with lukewarm water and soap throughout pregnancy, and palliative Ameshan ointments to prevent cracking of the skin and nipple. I would also recommend exposing the breasts to the air for ten minutes a day before noon and after preparation for breastfeeding.

Pregnant teeth and irreversible:

A pregnant woman to take care of her teeth during pregnancy and to consult with a physician on the damaged snorts. And pregnancy does not prevent the dental drill or Achtlaa rotten ones Contrary to popular belief that it affects the life of the fetus and in danger of being dropped, but the opposite is true, provided that dental pick out only under local anesthesia.

Pregnant food

It should be clearly understood that the mother eat an adequate amount of food types that are in need, is more important than eating much of any food was pregnant .ually not trust the advice of anyone that they should eat twice what they eat before pregnancy, because the double eating not only been to obesity is natural that lead to complications of childbirth.

The carrier says:
What if we, the women, are at greater appetite during pregnancy, and the need for more than the amount of food?

It is true that the mirror pregnant appetite for food and their need for food more than a little bit about the ability of ordinary women, but that the amount of calories that you need are the same that pregnant women need is pregnant, ie by 250 calories a day. No one believed that overeating may increase the size of the baby or that I said to lead to weakness and death, this is a serious error, as the pregnant women need a balanced diet to provide him her baby everything it needs from the necessary materials without harmful to their health or deformation strength.

The food you eat mother go to the properties of blood, and when necessary for the body-building substances are present in the blood of the mother, the fetus can grow natural growth, but if the mother's diet does not contain the necessary materials and vitamins has come down heavily damaged the fetus.

So I emphasize that it should not exceed the amount of food consumed when pregnant quantity that used in normal days or decrease it, with an increase of some essential minerals and vitamins, and if followed pregnant this important principle in the feeding system has succeeded in overcoming various difficulties and problems caused by increasing or decreasing the weight.

The pregnant body needs to six important elements are:

1. water (fluid)
2. Azotobacteraceae (Synovial materials) (Proteins)
3. fats (Fats).
4. starches (Carbohydrates)
5. Minerals (Minerals)
6. vitamins (Vitamins)

All of these elements are necessary for movement, growth and switching cells, which are found in different foods that we eat a day or less. If a lack of food from the Food For pregnant to replace it with another diet, otherwise disturbed body and disrupt fetal growth.

This is divided into six different food items will be addressed, namely:

1. milk and dairy products category:

The milk is the greatest and most useful food for pregnant women because it is a large amount of calcium, protein and minerals needed to build muscles and bones of the fetus, as it contains all kinds of necessary vitamins for pregnant body. The necessary quantity of milk for pregnant is one liter per day, or the equivalent of four regular cups not to mention the cheese that contains ample amounts of calcium, phosphorus, vitamins every ounce of cheese equivalent kilograms of milk. So you must have milk is the primary food during pregnancy.

2. Vegetables:

Of the most important vegetables that the holder should be addressed: carrots, beans, cabbage, grape leaves, spinach, potatoes, green peppers, and vegetables eaten the most important elements it is sufficient to put them in boiling water for ten minutes.

The holder can eat vegetables is composed of lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage and green pepper salad.

3. fruit and citrus:

Contains the necessary amount of vitamins for pregnant body, is the most important vitamin (Vit .C.), Which is of great importance in human cells feed so I would advise pregnant a meal or two servings or more of fruit per day.

4. meat, eggs and fish:

Synovial materials are that builds bone and muscle, so named: material manpower. Nor the fetus grows and grows in the womb of the mother, but if you find Synovial materials in their diet, and these are present in meat, eggs, fish, milk. It also must contain food daily pregnant eggs, preferably two eggs have all kinds of fish and marine animals replace meat in terms of nutrition and interest.

5. bread, wheat and grain:

The most important types of vitamin which things, this category of foods is a vitamin (b) (B) There is abundant in wheat, which is what you need for pregnant women more than others. In order to compensate for the pregnant this required amount they should eat a loaf or more per day of brown bread because it contains wheat flour in the crust.

6. butter and margarine:

I would advise pregnant not abound from eating fatty foods, especially in the second trimester, including butter, margarine and oils because they are rich only vitamin (a) (A) only, which is located in the rest of the food, and it should reduce the intake of salt because it raises blood pressure and trap fluid in the body, which helps to occur pre-eclampsia, and that it should avoid canned foods, sauces, pickles and condiments, such as causing stomach disorders and intractable in digestion and swelling in the abdomen and continuous nuisances.

Must also be minimized to drink stimulants such as tea and coffee, and not drinking too much fluid so that no more than a liter and a half liter of water a day.

Weight Control:

After the third month of pregnancy pregnant weight starts growing, gradually increases until the end of pregnancy, including about a dozen kilos. If weight increased the amount of fifteen kilos and above it becomes unusual and non-preferred.

You should note that the greatest threats to your health is obesity and overweight, so you control your weight down and consult your doctor to help you develop an appropriate diet less than the calories and increase the necessities for your health and the health of your child.

That physical exercise - as Marov- soften the pelvic muscles and the vagina and uterus, abdomen and chest, as unrelenting pelvic joints and limbs and becomes more powerful and preparation for movement and contraction and work the open period, and the sport prevent abdominal muscles and breasts of slouch and relax after birth.

In addition, the physical exercise for pregnant women remove nightmares during sleep, mental and neurological disorders that accompany pregnancy sometimes, it is also just a cramping and jittering and neurological and create the body as best they can to relax, which is followed by greater sense of comfort and confidence.

Is not a physical sport to exercise the muscles of the body and by. But it is also, to exercise the muscles that have a special affair at birth. Therefore, it is important to teach the mirror how and when to exercise and relaxation this muscle or those of muscles basin, for example, even draw in the payment of the fetus at birth, or the muscles of her abdomen, which help during labor and pay, and this requires strength and effort by pregnant.

The right to sit and breathe monotonous and move the body softly and lightness and ease during childbirth or by the other psychological and physical balance, is an essential condition of the birth without pain.

But it is essential that pregnant women these exercises and then have full confidence feasibility do not fail to do every day and regularly permanently.

The pregnant these exercises every morning after breakfast for an hour and a half hour, not less, or before breakfast, with the necessity of rest between each exercise and another lest increased breathing and pulse speed. They should undertake this exercise on the terrace or in a room face the sun and well ventilated so that the largest amount of fresh air and oxygen to reach the blood and the lungs.

And each of the periods of pregnancy a special type of exercise, so as not to cause harm to the mother or fetus. You should not use jumping exercises or jogging in the early stages of pregnancy to avoid being pregnant abortion or projector.

So the doctor to determine the exercise that must be carried out by the carrier in each month of pregnancy type ... from many factors, including women's health and life and the development of the fetus and the pregnancy ... etc.

In addition to physical exercise, there are some special exercises to facilitate the birth, which I attach special attention. It would Train pelvic muscles and thighs in order to be more susceptible to contraction and relaxation which facilitates the birth of the child, without being pregnant with pain remember.

There is also an exercise squatting on the ground, which facilitates labor in the pay of the fetus to the outside stage. The latter exercise is to shake the pelvis to the four sides similar to the situation as if it were a mirror you want to clear the land of the room, it softens the joints and strengthens the muscles in the back and abdomen.
