3 Things You shouldn't do during pregnancy.


''No one else will ever know the strength of my love for you, After all, you are the only one who knows what my heart sounds like from inside'' Anonymous Mother

Being a mother is a blessing, a rare gift,an everlasting relationship that doesn't die, becoming a mother is much more than just giving birth to a baby. There's a human being inside you that depends solely on your actions and activities for survival.

Motherhood and giving birth is really a miracle, it's sometimes surprising how God does these things, it a blessing. it really is. As a mother-to-be, there are some things that are detrimental to your own health and that of your unborn child.  What are these simple yet dangerous things you do/take?

1.- Unbalanced Diet- well, you might think you got this covered but think again, does your food contain at least a minimum amount of all categories of food everyday? Not consuming a balanced diet can lead to  a low optimum fetal development, that is below the normal fetus development.
this can be risky to your own health too.

2.- Caffeine-  excess consumption of caffeine during pregnancy has been said to be dangerous. caffeine is an addictive stimulant that flows easily from the placenta  to the developing fetus. it can be found in energy drinks, tea bags, coffee, chocolate bars,

 Pregnant women have been advised to take no more than 300mg or less of caffeine, that is approximately six cups of tea, eight cans of cola, three cups of coffee. can you try and lower your caffeine intake? please do, thank you.

3.- Stress-  Pregnancy itself should be enough stress, those swollen legs and finding it hard to sleep in a comfortable way should be enough stress. stress can't lead to so many unexpected things. so please, less stress.
