Pregnancy Do's And Don'ts

For when you need the facts&;not fear&;about what food, drinks, activities, and procedures you should avoid during each month of your pregnancy. Over the years, Dr. Elisabeth Aron has soothed the worries of many soon-to-be moms who have come to her with questions such as:&; Can I exercise during my first trimester? &; Is canned tuna safe to eat throughout my pregnancy? &; Do self-tanners contain chemicals I should be worried about?&; I have to fly for work during my second trimester. Is this safe? &; Is cookie-dough ice cream safe to eat? &; Can I wear an underwire bra during my pregnancy? &; I&;m six months pregnant. Is it alright for me to have a glycolic peel facial? &; Are peanuts safe to eat or will my baby develop a peanut allergy if I eat too many? &; There is a lot of chlorine in my health club&;s pool. Is that a good or bad thing? Pregnancy Do's and Don'ts includes hundreds of entries on possible concerns&;from apple cider to zinc and everything in between. In each entry, Dr. Aron identifies the item, the possible cause for concern, and explains the bottom line&;whether it is something a woman should avoid completely, something to take a better-safe-than-sorry approach toward, or something that is perfectly fine.
