The Good and the Bad

Good prenatal care is one of the most important elements in making a healthy baby. Expectant mothers should take this time to sleep as much as you can, baby yourselves, relax, eat often, go for a walk or a slow jog, stay hydrated, and keep stress to a minimum stressing yourself will only cause stress on your baby. I wouldn’t say that I had very much stress during my pregnancy, but with work four days a week, and internship and school two days a week I had no time to sleep. The first trimester was the worst trimester although the third trimester ran a very tight race. Although I had no baby bump for a few months the symptoms were there. I was always hungry but could never eat, I remember getting dinner from La Granja, and Chicken Kitchen, taking two bites and not being able to eat the rest. I stopped going out as much as I did before, I would still go to lunch and dinner with my friends as usual but I had to stay away from the night life. Although you may have to give up things that you once enjoyed, your baby makes it all worth it in the end.
