Prenatal Requirements

BLACKMORES' PREGNANCY & BREAST FEEDING FORMULA (I can't find this in KK and I'm running out of it), KORDEL'S FLAXSEED OIL (good for the skin - there'll be a lot of strecthing)AND WYETH MAMA MILK.


We can't never get enough of vitamins and minerals when morning sickness strikes. Just imagine what you put in comes out in a minute. Even smells will make you puke. Ever heard of Hyperemesis Gravidarum? Its a medical term for exessive vommiting, which may cause dehydration and weight loss in pregnant women. To prevent from that nausea feeling early in the morning. Take small bite of biscuit before you get out of bed and drink warm water. Some says that eat sour things make it better but to me its not working at all.

So, to make sure we get enough vitamins and minerals in our body we need to take some supplements. The most important is that you take your daily dosage of folic acid to prevent spina bifida. Refrain from taking too much vitamin A or better don't take it at all. Eating fruits is enough. The baby is like a parasite (in a good way) it takes all the vitamins and minerals from the mother but it does not mean that we need to eat double. Just eat healthy food and stop eating fast food will be a good start.

p/s: Start taking it before you conceive, during and after delivery.
