Hi Everyone!! Last week i shared with you, in Part 1 ,the steps you should take after getting a Positive Pregnancy Test.
This week i'm sharing with you things you will need/want to have on hand while pregnant.
Let's get started shall we!
1. Prenatal Vitamins - I talked a little bit about this last week, you will want to start taking them right away.
2. Saltine Crackers - They really to help with morning sickness. Munch on them throughout the day to keep nausea away.
3. Peppermint Hard Candies - They also help with morning sickness and further on in your pregnancy they will help with heartburn. (I've also heard peppermint tea helps too.)
4. Toilet Paper - Seriously, stock up on this big time, cause for the next 9 months you will be going and going and going.
5. Heating Pad - Comes in great having one of these, to help soothe your sore back. (Just make sure you don't put it on your stomach.)
6. Books, Journals, etc. - Books on pregnancy, breastfeeding, parenting, etc. all come in handy to have while pregnant. A journal is also good to have to write down thoughts and feelings on your pregnancy.
7. Healthy Snacks - Lots of fresh fruits and veggies are great to have available to snack on. Nuts are a good snack too! Do you love smoothies? Check out my recipe for a healthy Green Smoothie HERE!!
8. Pillows - They sell these whole body pillows, which i have heard are great, but i haven't tried them yet. Having extra pillows is great support for your belly and also to lift your feet with them to reduce swelling.
9. Maternity Clothes - Sure you could get away with just wearing regular clothes, but maternity clothes are way more comfy and they fit better!
10. Lotion - To help prevent stretch marks.
So that's my list of things to have while pregnant, what's your favorite thing to have available while pregnant?
