Because pregnancy can be stressful by itself, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists offered some ways for pregnant women to deal with the added stress of expecting during a global health crisis, as well as staying healthy.
“Pregnant women can stay healthy by following the usual recommendations during pregnancy, including, ‘eating healthy meals, exercising regularly, getting plenty of sleep, and avoiding alcohol and drugs,’ the ACOG reports.
“Being home a lot and avoiding other people can be hard,” the ACOG continued. “The above tips for staying physically healthy also can help your mental health. A few other things you can do to stay mentally healthy include, “staying connected with your friends and family, over the phone or online, taking breaks from coronavirus news and social media, and telling your ob-gyn or other health care professional if you are feeling sad or anxious.”
