No one is excluded from coronavirus infection. From infancy to adulthood, even pregnant women are infected. Coronavirus is also found in the body of many newborns. For this reason, pregnant women need to be very careful at this time. Expectant mothers can follow some things to keep their bodies and mind well during the lockdown.
Stop to go to the doctor’s chambers for advice:
All doctors are now available by phone, WhatsApp or video call. If you experience any problem, inform the doctor on the phone. There is no need to go to the doctor unless it is very urgent.
Take all precautionary measures:
Many hospitals are closing due to infection. You may find a few hospitals in case of an emergency. It is important to keep this in mind, especially for the family of pregnant women who will give birth within a short time.
Be aware:
Be aware of your own health. Premature childbirth may also occur. Expectant mothers should keep themselves away from social media at this time. Because fake news from these mediums can scare you. Concentrate on other good deeds at this time to keep the body-mind healthy. Keep your mind away from the bad news.
Stay at work:
Try to walk 30 minutes at home every day at this time. You can meditate as well. You can do online parenting classes. You can also do any other work at home if your body is okay.
Important to eat a balanced diet:
Keep fiber, protein, carbohydrate foods in your daily diet. At this time protein is very essential for the nutrition of the upcoming baby. For this reason, you can keep sprouted gram, mug, egg and cheese in your regular diet. Also put vitamin C rich foods in the diet list.
Spend time with family:
Spend time with everyone in the house. Tell the story. Spend more time with the husband. If you have any kind of mental problem, share it with him.
What not to eat:
At this time expectant mothers should not eat any processed food, packaged food, alcohol, tobacco, coffee, extra sweets, raw eggs, seafood. Try to eat nutritious food. Drink enough water.
