OBJECTIVE activities
• Check your medications. Sometimes a medication
a mother is taking for another health problem can
lead to problems with her unborn baby.
• Eat healthfully. Healthy foods and ample calories
help keep your baby well nourished.
• Get plenty of rest. Rest will help you feel better
and it may even help your baby grow. Try to get
eight hours of sleep (or more) each night. An hour
or two of rest in the afternoon is also good for you.
• Practice healthy lifestyle habits. If you drink
alcohol, take drugs, or smoke, stop for the health of
your baby.
