Consume foods and beverages rich in folate, iron, calcium, and protein. Talk with your health care professional about prenatal supplements (vitamins you may take while pregnant). Eat breakfast every day. Eat foods high in fiber, and drink fluids (particularly water) to avoid constipation.
Show affection.Hold hands and give hugs.Help her make changes to her lifestyle. You may decide to give up alcohol and coffee—or cut back—since she can't drink alcohol and may cut back on caffeine.
Emotional support from family, friends, or a therapist can help pregnant women feel happier and more relaxed, which benefits the baby. Pregnant women who get regular emotional support are also more likely to breastfeed their infants, which benefits both the mother and child.
Social support during pregnancy can alleviate emotional and physical pressures, improving the well-being of mother and child. Understanding women's lived experiences and perceptions of social support during pregnancy is imperative to better support women.
Friends and family are crucial for supporting pregnant women and new moms. They provide emotional encouragement and a listening ear during this particular time. Family and friends can help with chores and errands so pregnant moms can focus on their health and babies.
You can support your partner to have a healthy pregnancy by: taking on any physical tasks that they find uncomfortable, such as lifting heavy items. helping them to sit with their feet raised if they have swollen feet. encouraging them to report any changes in the baby's movements to the midwife straight away.
preparing meals – cooking smells can make nausea worse.
encouraging her to snack on a few dry crackers or plain sweet biscuits before she gets out of bed or throughout the day as hunger can intensify morning sickness symptoms.
Communication is yet ANOTHER key to making your partner feel supported during her pregnancy. And the best way to cater to your partner's needs is by talking to her. Each woman will have different preferences for how they want their partner to be involved, so work out a plan that works best for your family.
Social support during pregnancy can alleviate emotional and physical pressures, improving the well-being of mother and child. Understanding women's lived experiences and perceptions of social support during pregnancy is imperative to better support women.
Listen to them talk about how they are really feeling. Share your thoughts when you are asked and remind them that you will always be there for them. Say what you know is true, even if it makes you feel vulnerable. Instead of trying to make them feel better with clichés that have little meaning, say what is true.
