Neha Marda Instagram – These myths can make a pregnancy very difficult and even cause complications later. So, let’s bust these myths : Which myths would vou want to add to this list? Myth 1 : You can’t have tea/coffee when pregnant Women can safely have tea/coffee in moderation (1-2 cups a day). More than 200ml of caffeine a day can increase your risk of a miscarriage since caffeine can penetrate the placenta barrier, so be careful not to exceed your limit. Myth 2 : Eat for two In fact, overeating can result in maternal weight gain and child obesity. Your baby will get everything they need from you for the first six months without you needing any extra calories. Once you get to the last trimester, you may need about 200 extra calories (on top of the 2,000 daily recommendation), per day. Myth 3: You should not travel when pregnant It is ok to fly or take a car ride during pregnancy. However, you’ll feel the most comfortable in the second trimester. When traveling by car, limit the drive to no more than 5 to 6 hours. While driving or flying, be sure to walk and stretch every couple of hours. You should also drink enough water to stay hydrated. Myth 4: Do not exercise when pregnant Exercising is good for you, your baby’s health, and your mental health. Just avoid any new, strenuous activities like jumping, bouncing, and sudden jerk motions, advanced abdominal moves, and hot environments like hot yoga. Aim for 30 minutes of physical activity for at least five days of the week (or a total of 150 minutes per week), all throughout your pregnancy. Myth 5: Morning sickness is just a morning thing Nausea (and/or vomiting) during pregnancy can occur at any time of day, due to changes in your hormones. For most women, it’s more common in the morning and begins to improve after 3 months. But for some women, it’s different.
