People do not want to leave a baby shower until you’ve opened their presents, so make sure you are doing this no later than an hour to an hour and a half after the party starts. That way, if someone needs to leave a little early, they can. Keep in mind that it takes a while to open presents (at least 30 minutes) and that is why you should start this as soon as the eating and games are done.

If choosing a family name is important to you, but there are none that you particularly care for, consider using your child's middle name to follow the tradition.

The 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.

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.
