There are lots of things to do and think about when you’re pregnant. But you should also know about some don’ts to keep your pregnancy healthy.
Pregnancy is an exciting time in a woman’s life, but it can be stressful as well, especially when there are health concerns. The most important thing is to make sure that you are not having any serious problems, such as uncontrolled diabetes or high blood pressure.

1. Confirming Pregnancy

• Take a home pregnancy test using a urine or blood sample.
• A positive pregnancy test is the first step to begin prenatal care.

✅ 2. Schedule Regular Prenatal Visits

• Regular prenatal visits are essential to monitor both maternal and fetal health.
• These check-ups help detect conditions like gestational diabetes or high blood pressure early on.

✅ 3. Fetal Development in the First Trimester

• During the first trimester (weeks 1–12), the embryo grows up to 2.5 cm in length.
• Major body organs begin to form.
• Fingers and toes develop, though they appear as tiny paddles.

• A combined screening test can identify chromosomal abnormalities like Trisomy 18 or Trisomy 21.

✅ 4. Fetal Development in the Second Trimester

• By the second trimester (weeks 13–27), the fetus is about 1 foot long and weighs around 1.5 pounds.
• Lung development becomes visible on an ultrasound.
• The fetus may respond to sound and light.
• The skin is protected by vernix and covered in fine hair called lanugo.
• The fetus can move, swallow, and start to breathe through the nose and mouth.
• Fingernails grow, and the fetus can scratch itself.

✅ 5. Development by Week 27

• At 27 weeks, the fetus is about 1.5 feet long.
• It can move its limbs and neck, make sucking motions, and even clasp its hands.
• Hair growth begins, and the fetus becomes more active.

✅ 6. Nutrition and Hydration

• A balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is vital during pregnancy.
• Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated and support amniotic fluid levels.
• Avoid processed and high-sugar foods that can affect fetal development.

✅ 7. Safe Exercise During Pregnancy

• Regular exercise during pregnancy helps relieve back pain, and constipation and improves mood.
• Consult your doctor before starting any fitness routine.

✅ 8. Emotional and Sexual Health

• Pregnancy can change a woman’s feelings about sexual activity.
• Open communication with your partner is important for a healthy relationship.
• If needed, seek advice on sexual health from your doctor.

✅ 9. Special Care for Multiple Pregnancies

• Women pregnant with twins or more should seek guidance on family planning services.
• Extra care and monitoring may be necessary to reduce complications.
