Aerobic exercise such as walking and professional guidance such as yoga should be moderately selected. Regular prenatal checkups should be conducted according to medical advice to monitor the condition of mother and baby, and harmful substances such as smoking, alcohol, and radiation should be avoided.

1、 Reasonable diet ensures balanced nutrition

During pregnancy, it is necessary to consume foods rich in protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. In early pregnancy, it is advisable to increase foods rich in folic acid, such as green leafy vegetables, beans, etc., which can help prevent fetal neural tube defects; In the middle and late stages of pregnancy, it is necessary to ensure a high-quality protein supply, such as lean meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, etc., while consuming sufficient calcium (which can be supplemented through milk and soy products) and iron (supplemented through red meat, animal liver, etc.) to meet the needs of mother and baby. Daily intake of fruits and vegetables should be reasonable to maintain dietary fiber balance, promote intestinal peristalsis, and prevent constipation.

2、 Moderate exercise maintains physical and mental health

Pregnant women can choose suitable aerobic exercise, such as taking a 30 minute walk every day, which can enhance cardiovascular function, promote blood circulation, and facilitate childbirth; Yoga is also suitable as it can help pregnant women relax their body and mind, enhance their flexibility, but it should be done under professional guidance to avoid intense exercise or overwork. During exercise, it is important to adjust the intensity according to one's own physical condition. If discomfort occurs, stop immediately.

3、 Regular prenatal check ups to monitor the condition of mother and baby

During pregnancy, regular prenatal check ups should be conducted according to medical advice. Generally, prenatal check ups are conducted every 4 weeks in early pregnancy, every 2-4 weeks in mid pregnancy, and once a week in late pregnancy. The prenatal examination can monitor the growth and development of the fetus (such as the size and position of the fetus through B-ultrasound examination), the health indicators of the pregnant women (such as blood pressure, blood sugar, etc.), timely detect and deal with pregnancy complications, such as pregnancy hypertension, pregnancy diabetes, etc., to ensure that the health of the mother and baby is under control.

4、 Stay away from harmful substances and maintain a safe environment

Pregnant women should avoid exposure to tobacco and alcohol. Nicotine and alcohol in tobacco can affect fetal development, increase the risk of premature birth, fetal malformations, and other conditions; Stay away from radiation sources, such as reducing the frequency of prolonged use of computers and mobile phones; Avoid contact with toxic chemicals such as certain cleaning agents, pesticides, etc. The living environment should be well ventilated to reduce potential harm to mothers and infants.

5、 Maintain a positive mindset to promote harmony between mother and baby

Hormonal changes during pregnancy may lead to emotional fluctuations in pregnant women, and long-term negative emotions such as anxiety and depression may affect fetal development. Pregnant women can regulate their emotions and maintain a calm mindset by communicating with family and friends, participating in maternity courses, and other means. Family members should also provide sufficient care and support to pregnant women, create a warm family atmosphere, and promote the healthy development of mother and baby's physical and mental health.
