Pregnacy MythBuster #2

Myth: A common notion is that pregnant women need to eat double
Fact: Pregnant women need not eat double, but need to consume about 40 to 50 per cent more over the nine month duration. Every pregnant woman needs between 2,200 to 2,500 calories as compared to a normal woman who needs just 1,800.

This morning I woke up all of a sudden and I could feel immense emotional pain.
I've been trying to normalize myself after whatever happened last weekend. But I am not able to forget things that caused me so much pain and stress.
Though, I am not stressed anymore but I just cannot pull myself out of it.

Oh God! please take me out of this troublesome trap so that I get back on track and put my focus back on beautiful, spiritually & emotionally happy angel that I am expecting to enter my life soon. Oh God! give me the strength to stand this test of time.

I love you my little Angel !!!!

It’s that time in life when I'm going through a mixture of emotions — excitement, happiness and anxiousness. As a soon-to-be-mother I want to try and do everything right in order to have a safe and healthy delivery .
But the endless advice that people are giving leave me perplexed. Right from the doctor to parents, friends, relatives and even strangers; everyone has an opinion on what I should and shouldn’t do.
A lot of pregnancy myths are created through hearsay and need to be sifted out from the truth.

Myth: A common notion is that eating papaya, eggs and other 'heaty' foods may result in an abortion
Fact: There is no such thing as 'hot’ foods and if eaten in moderation it will cause no harm to the baby
