When I first got pregnant all I could think about was the
intense health risks that could potentially bring complications to my
pregnancy.My physician and I sat down
and talked out a plan to get my health in the right track.It wasn’t about getting my weight down so I
would no longer have to wear plus size clothing but getting my body strong
enough to be able to nurture my unborn baby.If you are pregnant or plan to be here are few helpful tips on staying
healthy during pregnancy.

8-10
glasses of water per day.
Regular Meals
You
should only be eating breakfast, lunch, dinner and two small snacks.
Keep
your meals well proportioned.
You
should only be consuming up to 2,400 calories per day.

Exercise
You
don’t have to do an intense cardio workout but even a 30minute walk
around the park will make a difference.
Food Journal
A
journal is a perfect way to keep track of what and how much you eat.

the health of your baby.
Five middle schools in New York City are trying out a new fitness program for their students. Four hours a week, 25 students do yoga and other fitness activities after school, seeing if incorporating the Nintendo Wii into a fitness program is viable. Nintendo is backing this trial, donating all of the necessary equipment. If the program is a success, it can spread state-wide, with the help of private funding.
