Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water (at least 2-3 liters a day) to prevent dehydration, which can lead to complications like preterm labor and urinary tract infections (UTIs). Include electrolyte-rich drinks like coconut water or ORS (Oral Rehydration Solution) to replenish lost salts.
Beat the Heat
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, especially between 11 am and 3 pm. Wear loose, breathable clothing and stay in air-conditioned spaces as much as possible. Take cool showers or baths to regulate body temperature.
Nutrition Matters
Eat small, frequent meals to prevent dehydration and maintain energy levels. Include hydrating foods like watermelon, cucumbers, and leafy greens in your diet. Avoid spicy or heavy foods that can trigger heartburn and discomfort.
Exercise Safely
Engage in gentle exercises like prenatal yoga or short walks to maintain physical and mental well-being. Avoid struyouous activities that can lead to overheating and dehydration.
Prevent Infections
Practice good hygiene, and avoid contact with people who are sick. Take regular breaks to rest and avoid overexertion.
