During pregnancy, women have to be very cautious at every step. At the same time, if one has to go on a trip during this time, then the caution increases even more because of the change in weather during the journey, fatigue of the way, disturbance in eating and drinking, or sitting for a long time - all these can affect your and your baby's health.

Therefore, it is very important to keep some things in mind during this time. So that not only you can travel comfortably, but your and your baby's health is also completely safe. Today in this article, we will learn from Dr. Priya Gupta, Senior Consultant Obstetrics and Gynecology, Cocoon Hospital, Jaipur, what things pregnant women should keep in mind before going on a trip.

Get a checkup done before going on a trip.
Dr. Priya Gupta, Senior Consultant says that before going on a trip, get your health checked, especially if you have any chronic disease or you take regular medicines. Also, always keep your essential medicines, a primary treatment kit, sanitizer, and a mask with you. If you have already checked yourself, then keep medicines with you as per the doctor's advice, otherwise if the condition worsens during the journey, the health of both the mother and the child can be at risk.

Take care of food
The senior consultant further says that pregnant women should take care of their diet during travel. Avoid unhygienic food and contaminated water. Drink only clean water and eat fresh, hot food. Often people buy and eat anything from anywhere while roaming outside, which can harm them later, so take special care that you have to keep your diet completely clean.

Get enough sleep
The doctor says that it is very important for pregnant women to get enough sleep during the journey. Fatigue and lack of sleep can weaken your immune system. Due to lack of adequate sleep, you cannot enjoy the journey to the fullest, and your energy may decrease due to fatigue in the brain.

Preparation according to the weather

Dr. Priya Gupta says that plan according to the weather, like if it is hot right now, then keep clothes, sunscreen or an umbrella, and other necessary things ready in advance. Because when you go on a trip, there is a lot of difference between the weather conditions of that place and the weather conditions of the place where you have to go, in such a situation you have to prepare according to the weather in advance.

Maintain mental peace

The senior consultant says that it is very important for pregnant women traveling to remain stress-free. Mental stress also hurts your health. So if you are on a trip, stay away from stress and enjoy the trip.
