The host should be the one who decides the approximate number of people who will be invited, based on the venue and budget. A good suggestion would be to have the main party at the home of the mother-to-be because that way, she does not have to haul all the great gifts back home…she just puts them in the baby’s room.

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.

Spicey and fried foods are hard on your stomach when it isn't pregnant, when it is, they are much worse! Try to avoid spicey foods until you are looking to start labor (just a myth)! Stay away from fried foods completely if you can.
