Take a very hot shower or bath. The point, of course, is not in water (it is useful for pregnant women), but in its temperature. The expectant mother may have high blood pressure and pulse, dizzy. In addition, fever often causes involuntary contractions of the uterus, which is dangerous in the first trimester. Nobody bothers you to take pleasant warm baths! Drink pain relievers. In the first trimester, ibuprofen and its derivatives are prohibited: they have been proven to increase the risk of miscarriage and an open oval window in the baby's heart. If you suffer from migraines or other pains, consult your gynecologist: the doctor will tell you what medications you can take. In any case, it will not be superfluous to try self-massage and essential oils. Sunbathe for hours. Overheating is harmful for both mom and baby, and in addition, under the influence of hormones, you can become covered with age spots. There is also a high risk of dehydration after prolonged exposure to the sun. Forget about vitamins. In the first trimester, vitamins are especially needed - now all the baby's organs are being actively formed. It is almost impossible to get the right amount of trace elements from food. If you find it difficult to swallow large capsules or the taste of vitamins causes a gag reflex, tell your doctor - he will select another form of release. Sit for a long time. At the initial stage, the volume of blood in the body almost doubles - this is a large load on the veins. And sitting for a long time inevitably increases the risk of varicose veins and edema. Every two hours you need to get up and do a little exercise or just walk for 10-15 minutes. There are raw foods. Sushi, medium rare steaks, soft cheeses - all this is very tasty, but prohibited for pregnant women. These foods may contain bacteria that are harmful to the unborn baby. Be patient: after nine months, you will be able to enjoy your favorite dishes again. Work with paints. In the first trimester, the placenta has not yet formed - a reliable shelter for the baby from the outside world. That is why any chemicals are very dangerous for him. Try to use only natural cosmetics and resist the desire to paint the walls in your future nursery! Do extreme sports. Activity is very beneficial at any stage of pregnancy, but within reason. It is better to refuse parachuting or freediving. Yoga, walking, dancing are ideal fitness in the first trimester. Overuse coffee. Doctors do not recommend that pregnant women drink more than one cup of invigorating drink per day. Excess coffee threatens miscarriage and low fetal weight. For energy, you can drink spiced tea, ginger water, or natural chicory. Starve and overeat. It is impossible to live on the same water and pollen when a baby is growing in you. However, ice cream and pickles are also not worth it. Try to eat healthy foods and keep track of your weight gain, but in no case try to artificially slow it down! Drinking alcohol. There is no evidence that a certain amount and type of alcohol is absolutely safe for pregnant women - even one glass of wine. Doctors advise expectant mothers to completely abstain from alcohol, as the consequences can be very serious - from underweight to brain damage in the baby. Clean up after the cat. Cat feces can be contaminated with toxoplasmosis, a parasite that is extremely dangerous to the fetus. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for you to come into contact with the pet's tray: during pregnancy, entrust this work to someone from your family. Something prompts, you won't upset
