Many women end up having a couple of showers, especially for the first baby. Her family may throw a shower and invite only family members, and then her co-workers may want to throw one as well. The mother-to-be may find that her husband or significant other is surprised with a shower or gifts by people with whom he works as well. It all depends on the size of the families involved and the extent of your list of friends and co-workers.

Remember the name you choose for your baby will be with them for the rest of his of her life. Names that may be trendy or cool now could go out of style as quickly as they came in.

Dizziness during or after your pregnancy workout that is persistant or accompanied by blurred vision and/or headaches may be a sign of anemia or other serious illness. Cool down and advise your doctor or midwife.

If smells are the main cause of morning sickness, carry around a hankerchief with a non-offensive odor on it. Put it over your nose when smells become unbearable and you cannot get away from the area.
