Just found out im expecting and im honestly overwhelmed with so much advice coming from every direction. can someone tell me the real basic dos and donts i should keep in mind right now? want to start on the right track.
Dont stress too much over the endless lists yaar. Basic stuff, eat healthy, no smoking drinking, take your vitamins, rest. Everything else just ask your doctor and chill.
Eat well, sleep well, walk a little and stay happy, those are the real dos. Avoid stress, heavy lifting and self medication. Dont overthink every food and rule, just take gentle care of yourself.
Dos: eat balanced home food, take your folic acid and iron, stay lightly active, rest well and keep your check ups. Donts: no smoking or alcohol, no random medicines, dont skip meals or over exert. Beyond that dont stress yourself with every little rule, common sense and your gynac are enough.
I followed a pregnancy app that gave weekly dos and donts, it was really handy to not feel lost. It reminded me of appointments and what to avoid. Just pick one good source and your doctor, dont read ten different lists or you will panic.
