Any suggestions for overall health during pregnancy?

[Guest guest]

Just wondering on more natural suggestions on nutrition, supplements, oils,

nutrient rich foods to help along my journey here? One thing I have been

having a problem with is dry, red, patches on my face, and body. Only thing I am

taking right now is Nature's Life, source of life prenatals. I would like to

get into some fish oil, not sure if I would be able to take the liquid though.

Does anyone know if Carlson's have swallow caplets? I would have no clue how

much is safe to take during pregnancy. I do not eat a lot of fish though. I

think I could start though.

 

Oh, and Christene I have been eyeing the belly balm, sounds wonderful! Very

nice that you include pregnancy, and baby products on your site.

well, since it's ad day anyway, check out my pregnancy articles and products

(and thanks Christine for putting up with the impromptu " ad " ):

 

I think Snowboard Mommy's Bodacious Belly Butter may help with the patches.

It is a very gentle balm for pregnancy ... it was designed to minimize

stretch marks but we also use it for everything from diaper rash to getting

tar off hands these days. Try it on a non-affected part of your body first,

then on one of your patches on your body, and then try it on your face in a

similar two-part trial fashion (it's not really designed for faces and will

be rather heavy). I suppose I should add to take the list of ingredients

and ask your doctor first, too.

also ask Christine if hers can be used for same thing ... I am not sure how

she makes hers depending on what's causing the red patches we should

probably compare ingredients.

 

I don't know about the fish oil stuff, but I encourage you to read all about

herbal infusions for pregnancy which are indispensable for overall health

during pregnancy:
