Expecting Mom

Have you ever wonder what it felt like to be an expecting mom? An expecting mom goes through different mood changes like being completely okay one moment and then next you know she is getting irriating by something really fast. She also has all these different cravings for food. She might even crave for something out of the ordinary. She might even crave for the same food over and over and not ever get tired of it. An expecting mom really has to watch out for her health because what ever she does can affect her baby. If she doesn't take good care of herself, then it could affect her and her unborn child.

Sudden mood changes is one effect that comes along with being pregnant. Her hormone is constantly changing which triggers her to have these different mood swings. As for me, I am expecting my second child and I can pretty admit that I have mood swings. When I am trying to study and someone bugs me or the environment that I am in is too loud I get irriated and annoyed really fast. That is probably because I am tired and stressed out from studying. Can tell that the hormones are triggering my mood changes? Although an expecting mom should not be angry, sad, or upset all the time because she could be suffering from depression. If she is depressed during her pregnancy it could harm her baby and risk her losing her baby from not being healthy. If she is depressed she should tell her doctor so that they could treat her or even give her medication.

Cravings for all sort of foods is normal for an expecting mom. She can't explain why she is craving for a certain food because it is just part of her pregnancy. She might crave for foods that she hasn't had in a really long time and go out her way just to get those food that she wants. She might even crave for a lot of junk food such as cakes, cookies, and sodas. These are the foods that she should try to avoid as much as possible because it is not healthy for her. She might even crave for something that she doesn't like. For example a pregnant woman might hate peanut butter and jelly sandwich before she was pregnant, then all of a sudden just craves for it and it becomes her favorite snack to eat while being pregnant. She might even go back to hating it after the baby is born. That is just part of her pregnancy symptoms that she goes through.

Eatting healthy and staying healthy is a very important factor for an expecting mom. If she doesn't eat the right nutritions that she needs then it is affecting her baby because her child is not getting the right source of nutritions that he needs. She should definitely not smoke, drink alcohol, or do any drugs while she is pregnant because it can really harm her baby. If she smokes, her baby could be born premature and even have breathing problems. She should not do drugs because her child can become dependant on the drugs that she is using. If she does drugs such as smoking crystal meth throughout her whole pregnancy, and when her baby is born he would most likely want the drug too right after coming out of her womb. He has become so dependant on the drug that he craves and need it. So be healthy and staying healthy is very important. Expecting moms goes through all sort of different things and changes. This is some ideas of what she goes through.
