How to be prepared for your big day

Ever worried about what to carry in your hospital bag. How to be prepared for someone you waiting to meet for 9 months. I too had gone through all this stuff. I had so my questions, how would I know if it's time will I be prepared or not. Stop worrying I would suggest because you would just know when the right time is and when you are going to get those crams or if it's just a false alarm. The best part leave it to God and time to decide when is the right time. Let doctors decide, what to do and when what not to do. Cues are many if it's time like water breaking, bleeding, or a cram. I had gone through bleeding. The pain is horrible when I tell you to trust me, it's really horrible. You just want to end your pain and get over with it. Check with your hospital or doctor if they provide clothes for the newborn, sanitary pads and any other stuff they provide, if not do carry the below stuff.

Eat for two?

A most common phrase I heard was during my pregnancy was you should eat more as you eating for two. Thanks to my doctors is all I can say. Pre-delivery I was 43 which then changed to 65 in those 9 months. It's an old saying eat for two, what I followed was on my doctor's say of course. Eat to your hunger, let your hunger decide how much you should eat. Have small meals or snacks at small intervals. You don't need extra calories intake, you definitely need extra nutrients in your diet, it doesn't mean adding more calories. Post-delivery I had lost 12 kg in a week all thanks to breastfeeding. When we say we feel like eating sweet or something else it's just your body's way of demanding they are getting short off some vitamins or some other calories. You might feel like eating chalk or mud it's just the body way of asking for more calcium. Take on queues eat and treat yourself with what you feel like eating don't think of your weight gain.

Motherhood-which noone told you about

Those two red lines change your world upside down. Happiness and fear which takes place with total excitement. Just someone doesn't tell you, what all it comes with. Your mother who you feel is very healthy or has so many health issues were just given by you. Which she just accepted it happily and lovingly without complaining about it to you ever. She was as beautiful as now just with maintained body weight without even going to a gym. So pregnancy never tells you nor someone never tells you, your body is never going to be same ever. The wasit which was always cherished and proudly fitted into your skinny jeans won't be able to fit in for 9 months or may be never after that. Sleepless nights deciding to sleep on the left side or right side is what is the struggle on. As the months pass the need to urinate increases,  ever-increasing need to use the washroom. The hormonal changes which are at the highest and strongest point in your whole life are going to make you cry at any poi

You could definitely add -on after concerning with your doctor.

Small Talks which can be a better start

Ideas to make them help in the kitchen with vegetables. In a week decide a day they going to clean these vegetables or peel it Tell them we going to use these cleaned vegetables which they cleaned to cook and let everyone know they helped with the cleaning of vegetables. Praise them, children love when they are praised, appreciated, applauded and given attention Pick a game such as counting, name the colour, parts of plants, racing, and make them sit. Make them put each vegetable in the container and let them open and close those containers. Children love to play with containers and open and close the lid many times. This will keep them occupied much more time. Let them carry those containers and keep them in the refrigerator or designated place. They enjoy doing these tasks of carrying as well. Give them two containers one is for waste and one is for vegetables. This will improve their analytical skills and sorting activities. Make mistakes and see how they correct you. E
