If the mom-to-be has a large family, whomever is hosting may decide to rent a hall or church that has a large area for parties. That way, the mother-to-be can have a bigger guest list. In this instance, it may be better to have a cover dish arrangement with the guests, but this must be organized so that there are enough main dishes, side dishes, drinks and desserts to make a full meal. If the hostess has a bigger budget, she may choose to have it catered.

Try to avoid names that could be mispronounced or misspelled easily. There is nothing more frustrating to a kid than having to correct people, like his or her teacher, every time they say the name for the first time. Or having to say "no, that's spelled with an 'I' not a 'Y'" a thousand times! Plus, if you like to buy things with your child's name on them, you'll never be able to find anything with the correct spelling unless it's specially made for you.

If you have heart or lung disease or hypertention, it is not advisable to exercise while you are pregnant. In addition, if you are pregnant and have placenta previa, multiple fetuses, preterm labor, incompetant cervix, bleeding, or other problems/conditions related to your pregnancy you should not exercise.

If you eat something salty before your main meal, it may help you "stomach" the food and keep morning sickness at bay.
