Pregnant women have weak immune system. In a time of a pandemic such as what the world is currently experiencing now, pregnant women must take great precaution. Here are some of the tips that I want to share with you:
1. Take vitamin C.
Vitamin C is a great immune booster so it is very important to have loads of it. You can also have lemon juice or other fresh citrus drinks. Although some pregnant women will have aching stomach when drinking lemon juice.
2. Continue taking the vitamins required by your Obgyne.
It is important to continue taking in the vitamins or the medications prescribed by your Obygyne. Do not neglect taking them they are great protection not just to you but also to your little one inside the tummy.
3. Drink plenty of water.
It was said that the corona virus cannot stand heat. So it is advisable that you drink warm water every now and then.
4. Eat fruits and vegetables.
If it is possible that you consume only healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables, please do. You and your baby need them.
5. Stay at home.
It is a must that pregnant women stay at home. If somebody else can do grocery shopping for you, please let them. For your greater protection, please stay away from outdoors.
6. Wash your hands regularly.
Wash your hands with soap and water regularly for a span of 20 seconds. The foamy the soap, the better.
7. Wear a mask if needed to go out.
If you are not sick, it is not required that you wear a surgical mask, they are for the frontliners. A cloth mask is enough, BUT, put a filter inside your mask. In another post I will be talking about what filter you can use for your mask.
I hope this helps. Pregnant women must be very careful at all times, always.
