Plane or train?

Most often, expectant mothers are concerned about the question: how to get to the place of rest? The most comfortable type of travel for a pregnant woman is by rail. But the train does not always go in the right direction for you.. Are pregnant women safe to fly Modern airliners have a sealed cabin, which is supplied with artificially oxygenated air, so that you can not be afraid of changes in barometric pressure and rarefaction of the air..

If your pregnancy is already visible to others, when boarding an airliner, they may be asked to present a medical document certifying the duration of pregnancy (a good reason not to forget the exchange card at home, which a pregnant woman should always have with her! ), and if the period is more than 36 weeks - then the written consent of the doctor for the flight. Try to take a seat in front, near the aisle, so that if necessary you can quickly walk to the toilet.

It is better to travel by car over relatively short distances, not exceeding 800-1000 kilometers.. Every 2 hours you need to make a 15-minute stop and take small walks. Important: fasten the seat belt below the abdomen.

hello sea!

The main natural wealth of most resort regions is the sea.. Bathing in sea water has a restorative and tonic effect.. Ions of potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, as well as seaweed phytoncides, penetrating through the skin into body tissues, have a positive effect on the body.

Sea waves produce a gentle hydromassage, beneficial for a pregnant woman. In addition, this is a wonderful tool for the prevention of edema and late preeclampsia.. As for swimming, moderate physical activity is very useful, but it is important that the loads are habitual, and not excessive (the same applies to walking).
