It depends on what kind of diet they are talking about. If it is just caloric restriction or whether it is specific dietary changes. Some women will actually lose weight during a pregnancy basically because they're eating healthier versus binge eating or eating all the wrong foods. |
Pregnancy is something that we should consider long and hard. If we choose to get pregnant, it is a decision that I encourage people to look forward to and to enjoy. |
We encourage all women who are trying to conceive or who are pregnant that they shouldn't smoke and they shouldn't drink alcohol. This is because we really can't tell people how much or how little one cigarette or one drink can really have an affect on those babies. It's harder on our livers and when we are carrying a child everything has to work extra. |
We should all be practicing safe sex and taking care of ourselves nutritionally. |
