5 Pregnancy Myths You Should not Listen To
Can you remember when you were pregnant and then you heard a whole lot of stuffs about your baby? Well what are some of the myths that people say? We have prepared some for you. Please note that the below are some of the myths that i experienced and i decided to share with you.
1. You have heartburn because your baby will be hairy
Yes, my son was born very hairy, but it was not because of heartburn, but because it was related to our genetics. All my family and his father’s are hairy.
How much heartburn and nausea are results of the uterus pressing on the stomach that cause stomach acid reflux. This is just the beginning.
2. You have to eat for yourself and the baby
My luck is that as very little and i have always been like that, however, i was directed to eat a lot so my baby did not starve inside me. Yes, it was important that I consume protein and carbohydrates, since they are the main sources of the energy that I sent to my son in my womb.
However, all the other exaggerations that I consumed would only cause me problems, so I did not, but if I had, I could become obese and suffer premature birth. Maybe my son did not survive, could also get diabetes, hypertension and many other ills that poor nutrition causes.
3. The size of your stomach determins the sex
During my pregnancy I was thin with a small, pointy belly. Some told me that I would have a boy, others said to be a girl, but the worst thing was always to hear people say that my son would be small and weak because I did not eat the way they expected and also because of the size and format Of my belly.
According to many doctors the belly of a pregnant woman will grow according to their genetics and anatomy, and this will not influence at all whether it will be boy or girl.
4. You will not be able to exercise with your baby
When you are not aware of things, you become ignorant of certain things. Thank goodness that today there is technology and people well qualified to guide us as well.
Physical exercises make a lot of safer work for you. Your body is more prepared, however, you need to see your doctor to see if there is any risk or not. Usually they indicate quieter sports like swimming, yoga, walking. As for intercourse, there are membranes on the placenta that will always protect the fetus.
5. Do not let a menstruating woman visit the baby, otherwise the milk will dry
This myth is a very ancient one, and difficult to erase from history, despite being one of the most ridiculous, since this kind of thing has never influenced or will influence breast milk.
Breast milk is produced under the command of several hormones that begin to act in the woman’s body during pregnancy, that is, the milk follows the orders of the mother’s own body and can not be changed by other factors.
This are just myths that seversal people have said wen you are preganant. You must have heard more than the ones in the article. Try as much as possible to consult your doctor as the health of yoiur baby is very important.
