Planned Pregnancy is Good for You and Your Baby (2)

Avoid the Three Devils

Please stop if you drink alcohol or you are a smoker or do drugs. These three devils can be counterproductive to the health of the growing infant within the womb.

Medication

A planned pregnancy is good for you and your baby. Imagine if you didn't know about the negative effects some of the over-the-counter medicines that you unwittingly took can have on your unborn child. This can be very dangerous. It is better not to take any medication without checking with your doctor first. And if you are on medication for any other illnesses- please inform him, he will want to know in your best interests.

Genetic Counseling

Genetic Counseling as a part of pre pregnancy planning is important because there are diseases that our genes carry that may be passed on to the baby. Genetic counseling can help you avoid the trauma of having a baby with birth defects.

Financial Planning

Having a baby can be quite expensive especially if you are unprepared for it. From regular visits to the doctor to shopping for baby products, the long list of bills can be daunting. If you have health insurance, have saved and planned for the future of yourself and the little one, you will find things much better.

Reading Good Books and Magazines

Besides seeking professional help it's important that you read good books and magazines to help you cope with getting pregnant. Aren't you quite sure now that a planned pregnancy is good for you and your baby?
