Recommendations and Tips for the Future Mom

Continue to fulfill the general recommendations that you followed on previous weeks. Do not stop watching your nutrition, sleep and rest mode.

At the seventeenth week, it is necessary:

• Monitor. Appetite at this time can play no on a joke, so it is important to restrict yourself. Be sure to weigh out. Do it need at least once a week, in the morning on an empty stomach and preferably in the same clothes. Record changes in the weight in a special notebook, so it will be easier for you not to miss a sharp weight leaving and watch out for your changes;
• Continue to follow nutrition. Do not forget that overeating may result in serious consequences. As mentioned above, with a sense of hunger, you can cope with frequent food intakes with small portions. Refuse flour and sweet in large quantities, fried, oily, acute and salty food. Exclude the use of coffee, strong tea, carbonated water, non-alcoholic beer. From time to time, of course, you can pour yourself, but healthy nutrition should now be your mandatory habit;
• Sex requires choosing convenient posture. Currently, technical restrictions appear. Be extremely attentive and careful;
• Take care of convenient shoes, Heels are better to exclude generally, also try to choose shoes without shoelaces, you will probably be surely tied them at all;
• Do not take a hot bath, you don’t need to bathe in the bath. Your heart works much more active than before and additional load will be completely nothing to do. You are unlikely to feel good. So give preference to the warm soul;
• Control the condition of the urinary system. The kidneys of a pregnant woman work literally to wear, as they now have to filter out of the blood not only the products of its livelihoods, but also the waste of the baby, which are removed into the blood of the mother through the placenta. Sometimes pregnant women can have stagnant urine, and this in turn can lead to a number of inflammatory diseases, such as cystitis, bacteriuria, pyelonephritis and t.D. For the prevention of any of these diseases, it is necessary to empty the bladder more often, not to drink a very strong line brushing decoction and exclude salted and sharp dishes from the diet.

Many again worries toxicosis. Someone is nauseous, unfortunately, is not going to pass. Women complain and on Signs of late toxicosis, Namely female legs, fingers, faces.

We have gone 17 weeks, movements are already feeling very well. If at this time to look directly on the stomach, then you can feel how he repeats and moves a little bit. I give my husband to touch at such a moment, but he says that he also feels, but of course not as much as I. Feelings are just indescribable!

Nata:

I have the 17th week, for me it is the first pregnancy. True, toxicosis has not yet passed. Often there are pain at the bottom of the abdomen, and so everything is in order. Start yourself feeling a future mom. Very often there are rings of joy, and sometimes I start to cry, if something is upset. For me it is strange because I used to never cry.

Evelina:

We have the 17th week, the stresses so far do not feel, although it seems from time to time that it is it! Toxicosis passed as soon as 1 trimester ended. Sometimes the truth puts out, but quite a bit, stopped roaring 5 times a day as before. I am very looking forward to when the baby starts to move, as a confirmation that everything is in order with him.
