3 Things You Don't Need To Do

• Worry about that drink you had before you missed your period. It takes about seven days for the fertilized egg (zygote) to travel through your fallopian tube and implant in your uterus. The placenta begins to develop at about 12 days after conception, which is just before your period is due. Before then, there's no e xchange of blood between mother and baby.

• Worry that having morning sickness will rob your baby of nutrients. Generally, nausea and vomiting taper off by the end of the first trimester. During much of that time, the embryo and, later, the fetus will leech what it needs (which isn't a lot) from your body. Just make sure to take a multivitamin containing at least 400 micrograms of folic acid daily.

• Worry that something you do will cause a miscarriage. Most early miscarriages are the result of chromosomal abnormalities within the developing embryo; many occur even before you know you've conceived. Smoking, drug use and very heavy caffeine consumption increase miscarriage risk, but normal activities, including exercise and sexual intercourse, do not. Once the fetus's heartbeat is detected by ultrasound--usually at around six weeks of pregnancy (counting from the first day of your last menstrual period)--the risk of miscarriage drops to less than 10 percent.

Riding Out the Waves

Riding Out the Waves I'd read the books, I'd consulted the girlfriends, and still, I wasn't expecting morning sickness to be the nightmare it actually was. Sure, the books briefly mention that it could last all day, but who would believe that? Common sense tells you that someone experiencing "morning" sickness all day long is eith er lying, or just terribly unlucky. It's also common knowledge that nearly half of all pregnant women sail through their first trimester completely puke-free, and so I naturally assumed I'd be part of this lucky group. I couldn't have been more wrong if I assumed Vanity Fair wanted me to pose for their cover in all my pregnant glory.

Morning sickness arrived during my fourth week of pregnancy, and I quickly learned that the nausea of morning sickness is not the kind we are all used to -- apparently it's a mutant strain of nausea, impervious to vomiting and time restraints. You could throw up for hours and not feel the slightest bit better; and you could go to sleep feeling queasy, and wake up the next morning just as green-tinged. The nausea of morning sickness was more than just nausea too -- it was an all-encompassing, overwhelming feeling of wanting to crawl into a hole and die, 24 hours a day. I certainly had not expected this.

Before I conceived, I was a nine-hours-a-night girl. I never had insomnia. Never tossed and turned. Sleeping was one of my fortes. I even put it down on my resume under special skills, right next to my ability to say the alphabet backward really fast. But take that nine-hour girl and reduce her sleep time to about half and watch her mentally wither away.

I Can't Sleep

I was exhausted almost every day during my last trimester. My body was so weary after a day of schlepping itself around that it was in desperate need of forty winks. What with that incredible heartburn, Braxton Hicks, and a bla dder the size of a kumquat, it made it difficult to fall off to slumberland. In addition, my baby seemed to have kick-boxing lessons through the night. And once the lesson was over, she’d hiccup for hours like a drunken sailor. Add up all these factors, and I was up half the night…if I was lucky.

I can offer a bit of advice to help you go off to la-la land. First off, surround yourself with pillows. They actually make a pregnancy pillow that’s long enough to encircle your entire body. You can get these in stores, in catalogues, or on the internet. If you don’t want to make the investment, use several different pillows from around the house. Be sure to swipe your husband’s pillow as well. Misery really does like company. Place these pillows anywhere you need support. I would suggest putting one pillow under your belly, one between your legs and a couple behind your back. Although this will give you relief from some of your aches and pains, it will give your husband very little room left on the mattress (which may actually be one more way to ease the resentment you feel from having to carry the baby all by yourself).

The Continuum of Childbirth Options

As you slide across the continuum of birthing options from one extreme to another, you’ll come across all the different options, each one a shifting equation between the two different realms of control...

The one thing that remains constant is that the women who make each choice believe that they are planning the safest possible birth for their baby. Here are the major stopping points along the way:

Home birth: Women who choose to deliver in the most old-fashioned, low-tech way possible have the luxury of writing all their own rules for their labor and birth, and they put a personalized stamp on the experience by dictating their surroundings. They believe that their baby is safest with the fewest possible medical interventions. But by choosing this path, they are also giving up the comfort of knowing that a potentially lifesaving operating room or NICU is just an elevator ride away.

Colostrum: Not Just for Body Builders Anymore

Colostrum You may be most familiar with colostrum as the supplement that Buff McHardbody liked to down first thing in the morning to juice up those muscles. The reason that Buff is so devoted to those supplements is th e same reason that the special milk you produce at the onset of lactation is so vitally important to your baby’s health.

While you are still pregnant, your breasts will start to produce colostrum -- a special milk that is super high in carbs, proteins and antibodies. This milk is usually yellowish or orangey in color, and is thick and sticky. Sounds appetizing, doesn’t it? Well, it is -- to your newborn. So what does it do for Baby McHardbody?

• It’s nutrient-dense, but it’s also highly digestible, making it the perfect first food for your baby.
• Has a laxative effect on babies -- we all know what that means! It’s important for new babies to rid themselves of excess bilrubin though, and the laxative effects of colostrum are perfect for that -- which means your baby is less likely to develop jaundice.
• It’s the perfect immunobooster -- it provides large amounts of living cells and the concentration of leukocytes is much higher than in the milk you produce later. These leukocytes protect baby from various microorganisms, bacteria and viruses.
• Contains secretory immunoglobin -- antibodies that protect baby’s mucous membranes in the throat, lungs and intestines.
• Helps establish beneficial bacteria in baby’s digestive tract -- because who wants a baby who is birthed shopping at the health food store for his probiotics!
• Coats baby’s digestive tract with a barrier to prevent foreign substances from penetrating.

You will likely produce this liquid gold for three or four days, after which you will start producing mature milk. At this point, your milk production will increase in volume and your milk will change to a whiter, more opaque color. In the days leading up to this change, it’s important to breastfeed 8-12 times in each 24-hour period, and even more if you can! This gives your baby the chance to absorb as much of that Breastmilk Cristal as possible, and stimulates the production of mature milk.
