Each month
during pregnancy is very important. Your baby will change and grow in a very
special way.
Your new baby
will get all of the food it needs from you. It is important that you are aware
of what you eat and drink. Also, ask your doctor or pharmacist for a prenatal
vitamin. These vitamins are for pregnant women and unborn babies and prevent
certain types of birth defects.
Avoid smoking,
alcohol, recreational drugs and certain medications because these things can
harm your growing baby. The following website will explain why this is
important.
Contact a
medical doctor as soon as you think you are pregnant. Medical care while you
are pregnant is necessary. The doctor can make sure that you and the baby are
healthy. They will also tell you which medications are safe for you to take.
If you do not have a regular medical doctor or cannot afford one, contact your
local health department. There is low or no cost prenatal care available to new
mothers.
