Choose Your Healthcare Provider
You may wish to speak with friends and relatives to pick your doctor. Alternatively, searching online and in forums may be a good way to determine your options too!

Eat Well and Take Your Prenatal Vitamins
Essential nutrients and prenatal vitamins such as folic acid will be key to keeping your pregnancy healthy. Folic acid reduces the risk of your baby developing neural tube birth defects such as spina bifida. It is not necessary to eat for two as too much calories may serve more harm to your body.

Consider Non-invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT)
It is recommended that you do a non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) from your doctor to know your risk of chromosomal abnormalities, there is an option for you to know your baby’s gender as early as 10 weeks too!

Seek Out Confinement Arrangements
It is never too early to start sourcing for a confinement nanny or to plan for someone to take care of you and your infant after you deliver. After all, confinement is a period where your body gets to recuperate and you will need plenty of good rest.
