I just found out I'm pregnant and it's very early days. What kind of care should I be taking right now? I want to make sure I do everything right for my baby.
I can't give medical advice, but personally, I just made sure to eat small, frequent meals and stopped lifting heavy items. I also made sure to stay hydrated and took a lot of rest during the afternoon. Always check with your doctor for what suits your body best.
First of all, sleep as much as you can right now because once the baby comes, sleep is a luxury, haha! Take your folic acid regularly, avoid lifting heavy buckets, and rest whenever your body feels tired. Seriously, sleep is your best friend right now!
I went to stay at my parents' house during my first trimester, and my mom made sure I got complete bed rest. She didn't let me do any heavy chores and made fresh ginger tea for my morning sickness. Try to stay relaxed, eat warm home food, and let your family pamper you.
I am in my early months too and currently staying super careful about not climbing stairs too fast. I also stopped eating outside food completely to avoid infections. Are you guys also feeling super sleepy all the time, or is it just me?
In early pregnancy, keeping your mind calm and positive is very important for the baby. Wake up with a peaceful mind, do light prayers, and eat fresh home-cooked food. Trust in God and take care of your physical health too.
