Baby Names Plus Quick Tips
Baby Shower PlanningIf you or the mother-to-be is superstitious and believes that no gifts should be bought until the baby is born (some religions believe this as well), you may want to have the baby shower about a month after the baby is born. This will give the mother time to heal and get settled into her new role. By this time she will want to show the baby off, and may have a better idea what she needs.
Baby NamingIf 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.
Pregnancy ExerciseIf you feel sick to your stomach after working out while pregnant, you have probably built up too much lactic acid in your stomach. Cool down and realx for a while and if the nausea persists, call your doctor or midwife.
Morning SicknessIf your morning sickness is unbearable, see your doctor. He may put you on vitamin B, which has been shown to help some women. If your morning sickness is severe and you cannot keep any food down, you may need to be given I.V. fluids which contain much needed vitamins and nutrients for you and the baby.
