LIFESTYLE TIPS to sustain pregnancy

It’s important to prepare your body and adjust your lifestyle to maximize your chances of conceiving. Here are some tips that can really improve your fertility.

Water

Drinking plenty of water (about 8-10 cups a day) is very important when trying to conceive. This helps the kidneys flush waste products out of the body and increases fertile cervical fluid.

Avoid alcohol

It’s a good idea to avoid or strictly limit alcohol consumption as it reduces fertility. The Department of Health advises avoiding alcohol entirely if trying to conceive or during pregnancy.

Caffeine

Caffeine is believed to restrict a developing baby’s growth by constricting blood vessels and reducing blood flow to the uterus. Currently, the recommendation is to limit caffeine intake to under 300 mg per day, which is equivalent to 4 cups of instant coffee, 3 cups of fresh coffee, or 6 cups of tea.

Smoking

According to a report published by the British Medical Association (BMA), women have a 40% reduced chance of conceiving when they smoke. Smoking decreases sperm count and increases sperm abnormalities in men. Ask your GP or office nurse for help with quitting.

Exercise

Women who exercise regularly are less likely to experience the nasty side effects of pregnancy (back pain, hemorrhoids, swollen ankles, etc.), gain excess weight, and are more likely to feel comfortable in their changing bodies. A fit, healthy body also copes better with childbirth. Find a balance, however, because excessive exercise can lead to fertility issues like irregular periods and an ovulatory cycles (cycles without ovulation).

Stress less

There are so many people who worry excessively about getting pregnant and once they release that stress, their body responds to the new peace by creating a new life. So try not to worry and enjoy the fun of getting pregnant.

Addition

Sex
