Swine Flu and Pregnancy
However, if you are experiencing diarrhea or vomiting along with the flu, consult your health practitioner immediately.
Here are a few tips that can help anyone, especially a pregnant woman deal during this pandemic:
• Clean and wash your hands often with a soap or antibacterial gel.
• If you are going outside, wear a face mask if you can or better, stay safe indoors.
• Have extra Vitamin C supplements; I’d highly recommend drinking orange juice. Other vitamin or mineral supplements will also do.
• If you know someone who is sick, avoid going near them. However, if these are your children, make sure you change their clothes often and you wash your hands even more often after dealing with them.
• Drink lots of water. The more water you drink, the more toxins you eliminate from your body avoiding any risks or chances of any kind of infection.
• Try to have a healthy diet with varied fruits, vegetables and proteins to strengthen your system.
As the saying goes, “Prevention is better than cure” and staying safe can definitely keep the swine flu or any other kind of flu at bay from us.
