Previously, you didn’t deny yourself anything: you jumped with a parachute, conquered mountain peaks, came off in disco clubs, dancing all night long. Now, when a new life beats under your heart, you will have to forget about old entertainments. But don't worry: pregnant women don't have to lock themselves in four walls for 9 months. There are quite a few places where you can go for the benefit of yourself and your little one.
Instructions
Step 1
Sign up for courses for pregnant women and new mothers. They will teach you how to breathe correctly during childbirth, they will tell you how to easily survive the contractions. They will show you how to care for a newborn after discharge from the hospital. In addition, during the course, you will get to know the same future moms as you - you will have someone to chat with on current topics, ask for advice, or just have a cup of tea together.
Step 2
Practice yoga. It is believed that yoga classes for pregnant women are a very good way to prepare for the process of childbirth. Special exercises help to strengthen the spine, back muscles, teach to control breathing. They also improve blood circulation, so that the baby will receive more oxygen.
Step 3
Do you like to swim? Go to the pool. There are also special groups for pregnant women. Many obstetricians and gynecologists recommend swimming for their patients. Water perfectly relaxes muscles, helps to improve metabolism.
Step 4
When you go on maternity leave, when there is more free time, it is a good idea to go shopping - buy the necessary clothes for your baby, choose a crib, a stroller and much more. If you think that buying things for a child in advance is a bad omen, you can just look for the necessary items in the store, ask the price. You can also ask the seller to postpone the product for a certain time. In some stores, customers are accommodated in such cases.
Step 5
It is not bad for a pregnant woman to go to classical music concerts. It is believed that beautiful melodies have a beneficial effect on the development of the baby in the womb. Music can influence a child's intelligence as well as creativity.
Step 6
Among other things, a sacred cause for the expectant mother is daily walks in the fresh air. Make it a rule, for example, to walk for an hour or two in a public garden or park next to your house before going to bed. This will benefit both you and your little one.
Step 7
Also, no one prohibits pregnant women from going to cafes, restaurants, cinemas, concerts of modern performers and other places where you liked to be before your “interesting position”. The main thing is to stay away from people who smoke, exclude alcohol from your menu and monitor your well-being - if you feel good, then your child feels good too.
