No one enjoys giving up things they like
or having an interest to do. But if you are trying to conceive, there
are quite a few things you should NOT do that can complicate or hamper
your chances of getting pregnant. Below are the things that help you to
improve your pregnancy. Your doctor may have already advised you not to
do things during your pregnancy. Here we will let you know the things
you should avoid while you are pregnant.
It would have been better if you have
already quite smoking. According to studies, smoking is not only
detrimental to your health but it is also harmful to the baby. It has
been observed smoking increases the risk of miscarriage and leads to
ectopic pregnancy. Infact, females addicted to smoking have wrecked
havoc to the fertility. The exposure of smoking leads to spontaneous
abortion, pre-term births, low-weight full-term babies, and fetal and
infant deaths. Your partner should quit smoking too.
Consumption of large amount of
caffeine is connected to infertility. Some studies suggest, you should
not consume more than 200 mg of caffeine. It includes all sources of
caffeine like coffee, tea, chocolate and soft drinks. You have to also
make sure that you are not consuming enough soda that can impact on your
heath. During pregnancy, it is important for you to switch to a drink
that does NOT contain caffeine.
You should not drink Alcohol
Your lifestyle habits can have long term
effects on your fertility. There is an increasing evidence that says
even the small amounts of alcohol can reduce your chances of conception.
During pregnancy, consuming alcohol has negative effect on your
developing baby. In some cases, it has been found, the baby born from an
alcoholic mother has congenital birth defects leading to severe
retardation and other abnormalities.
Fair amount of fish may not have any
problems but for healthy pregnancy, cut back on your consumption of
high-mercury fish (tuna halibut, swordfish). Fish concentrate
methylmercury, which can affect the developing child’s brain and nervous
system. So avoid it, and increase your chances of a healthy pregnancy.
Depression is an illness that affects
the thinking of a person. Sometimes pregnant women don’t realize they
are under depression. Depression during pregnancy can lead to
miscarriage, delivering before the due date (preterm), giving birth to a
small baby (low birth weight). It’s important to live a stress free
life to maintain your healthy pregnancy
