Tips To Get Through Summer Pregnancies

in health •  7 years ago  (edited)

1.Swimming
If your pregnancy has begun along with your summer, swimming is an ideal way to let go off the steam. In the initial stages of pregnancy, swimming would be a good physical exercise and also helps reduce stress on the sciatic nerve. So, beat the heat with a swim in cold water.
2.Reduce salt intake
The sodium present in salt contributes to bloating during pregnancy. Reducing your salt intake during this time will slow down your bloating or swelling too. However, don’t completely refrain from salt in your food. Consume a few pinches of salt because you and your baby need iodine.
3.Keep yourself Hydrated...Summers mean drinking more water and keeping your body hydrated. When you’re pregnant, the best way to get through the hot days is drinking hydrating yourself often. Fresh juices, buttermilk, and other liquids too can be good alternatives to water. But, avoid sodas, carbonated drinks, and pops. If you want to build on some minerals, tender coconut water is the best. Summers can exhaust you, so ORS is a good choice if you feel tired.
4..Eat healthy food
Consume foods that lower your temperature and avoid foods that increase your body temperature. Cucumbers and citrus fruits are helpful in fighting the summer heat.
