How To Stay Healthy During Pregnancy

Having a healthy pregnancy period is one of the best ways to promote a healthy birth. Getting early and regular prenatal care improves the chances of healthy pregnancy. This care can begin even before pregnancy. For the right advice and guidance always choose the right health care providers like Rao Hospital.

What is prenatal care?

Post pregnancy visits to gynaecologist usually include physical exam, weight checks and providing a urine sample. Depending on the different stages of pregnancy, the health care providers will also do blood tests and imaging tests, like ultrasound exams to understand the condition in a better way. These visits will also include discussions about the mother's health, infant's health and any questions and doubts about the pregnancy.

With regular prenatal care women can:

• Reduce the risk of pregnancy complications. This can be done by following a healthy and safe diet, getting regular exercise as advised by a health care provider and avoiding exposure to potentially harmful substances such as radiation and lead. Controlling existing conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes, is important to avoid serious complications in pregnancy.

• Reduce the infant's risk for different complications. The use of tobacco and alcohol during pregnancy has been shown to increase the risk for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Alcohol use also increases the risk for foetal alcohol spectrum disorders.
• In addition, taking 400 micrograms of folic acid everyday reduces the risk for neural tube defects. Most prenatal vitamins contain the 400 micrograms of folic acid as well as other necessary vitamins that pregnant women and developing foetus require.
• Help to ensure the medications women take are safe. Certain medications, including some of the acne treatments, dietary and herbal supplements are not safe during pregnancy.
