Tips On How To Stay Healthy During Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a time when your whole body undergoes change and your skin and hair will not stay unaffected by the hormonal  changes but it is important for you to stay healthy to carry through.

Here are tips to keep you healthy during the period of pregnancy.

Get adequate sleep

Try  to sleep for a minimum of eight hours each night. Sleeping well will help keep puffy eyes at bay and prevent your skin from looking pale. A relaxing night will keep you looking beautiful inside out.

Deal with stretch marks

Stretch marks are inevitable be it your first pregnancy or your last. Using cocoa buttercream from the moment you find out you are expecting can, to a certain extent, help dull the marks. Massaging with castor oil or aloe Vera gel has also been suggested.

Take care of your teeth

Pregnant women are prone to dental problems and this has been found to have an impact on the birth weight of the baby. So, make sure you practice good dental hygiene and have the perfect smile in place for your baby photos.

Keep moving

Strenuous exercises are a strict no-no during pregnancy, but be sure to take a short walk each day. Let the blood circulate through the body, and you’ll look much fresher! Be mobile even if you feel like you are moving in slow motion. Too much sitting or standing can lead to backaches.

Acne flare-ups

If you are one of the unfortunate ones who have not been blessed with glowing skin during pregnancy, do not fret. Wash your face daily with a soap-free cleanser twice a day. Be gentle when washing and drying your skin. Do not scrub or try to squeeze the zits. Opt for oil-free moisturizers and make-up during this period.
