Baby Names Plus Quick Tips
Baby Shower PlanningMost people feel that the first baby should be the only baby shower that is given for the mom-to-be. However, there are exceptions to this "rule." For example, if the woman has had one or more children at one point in her life, and then sells or donates everything because she is “done” having kids, only to find out several years later she is going to have another baby and will need everything again.
Baby NamingWatch out for cute and cuddly names that may seem very appropriate for a baby, but may not be so great later in life. Cozy or Bubby would be tough names to put at the top of a CEO staff memo!
Pregnancy ExerciseThe best pregnancy exercises are low-impact aerobics such as brisk walking, dancing, swimming and yoga to name a few. Try to avoid potentially dangerous sports, such as outdoor biking, skiing, horseback riding, etc. Never go scuba diving as it can cause dangerous gas bubbles in the baby's blood.
Morning SicknessMany experts believe morning sickness is caused by a mixture of rapidly changing hormone levels, enhanced smell, and increased stomach acids (this contributes to heartburn and acid reflux in some cases as well).
