• While talking don’t blame each other for anything. Pregnancy is your decision as a couple so if any ups and downs come during pregnancy try to solve them without fighting with each other.

• If it is your love marriage then don’t fight for the traditions and rituals of baby birth. Sometimes arrange marriages also have to face the same thing because of the different cultures. Discuss it yourself and go for both the rituals. This will show your respect for each other.

• Physical relation is again a common matter to fight. Sometimes the possessiveness for a baby turns you to avoid being intimate and then it’s no matter whether your partner needs it or not. Talk to your doctor openly about sex and ask her which is the right period and position of sex during pregnancy.

Frequent bathroom user: If you are pregnant then make sure that one of the washrooms should be booked for you. During pregnancy, a woman experiences a lot of loo time and uses the bathroom very often. This happens because pregnant women’s body is producing more of the hormone HCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin). This hormone increases urine, and may also contribute to nausea during the first trimester.

Increasing Weight: The body weight of a woman gradually increases because of the weight of the baby in the womb. If you feel that your weight is increasing so much then talk to your doctor about a healthy diet and some exercise to stay fit.

Lack of sleep: The biggest change you will experience is the lack of sleep. You will be tired but you will not be able to sleep because of your changing body shape. You will not find a comfortable position to sleep and thus resulting in a lack of sleep.

Congestion: During pregnancy, the hormones of the body increase and you may experience frequent nasal congestion. Some women even suffer from nosebleeds. If the situation is getting worse then talk to your doctor for treatment.

Daily life schedule change: After some months of pregnancy, you will feel that your daily maintained schedule had changed. Mostly your planning will fail and you have to re-arrange the whole schedule again.

Healthy foods: As soon as you will get pregnant, you will be advised to eat healthily. The outside junk foods are harmful to your health and even though you love the street foods you have to avoid them for your baby’s health. However once or twice in ten days can be counted healthy but daily intake will harm your baby’s health.

Nightlife: You have to leave the nightlife for some days to prevent your baby from any type of harmful thing. The disco nights and dance steps can lead to a miscarriage. You have to adopt a simple lifestyle of staying home at night for some months.

Alcohol and smoking: After being pregnant you have to leave the smoking and drinking for a couple of years because while breastfeeding your baby can affect his health.
