Pregnancy is a time of anticipation and preparation. Our Pregnancy section offers comprehensive information on the different trimesters, prenatal care, nutrition, exercise, and emotional well-being.

General Pregnancy Health Advice and Hygiene Practices:
Foods and drinks to avoid or limit in pregnancy:
- Avoid fish high in mercury, ready-to-eat chilled foods, soft cheeses, raw eggs, and raw seafood.
- Avoid double-shot espresso and energy drinks.
- Limit caffeine intake to 1 espresso, 2 instant coffees, 4 cups of tea, or 4 cans of cola per day.
- Limit sugary and fatty foods.
Smoking, alcohol, and other drugs, and medicines:
- Don’t smoke or vape during pregnancy; avoid second-hand smoke.
- Avoid alcohol consumption as it can cause serious health problems in babies.
- Consult your doctor or midwife about the safety of any medicines or supplements you’re taking.
- Avoid recreational drugs and seek assistance from your healthcare provider to quit if needed.
Daily health and hygiene:
- Maintain dental hygiene to prevent tooth decay and gum disease. Drink tap water, brush with fluoride toothpaste twice daily, and use floss or interdental brushes. Regular dental check-ups are recommended.
- Practice good hygiene by washing hands regularly, especially after using the toilet and before preparing food, to prevent illness and infection.
