When you first become pregnant you may go through tons of different emotions. You may be sad, happy, scared and maybe even stressed. So, just how does stress affect your unborn baby?
Research has proven that acting like a stressed out person will have bad affects on your child. Its really important to keep your stress during pregnancy down as low as possible. Its okay to have the blues every now and then, but always dwelling on stressful thoughts for example money and relationship problems will most likely have lasting effects on your baby.
Scientists have proven that stress during pregnancy can cause problems for your child later on in life. Stress during pregnancy has been linked to altering the behavioral development and could lower their birth weight. Tack that onto the affects that stress during pregnancy can have on your childs immune system and you have enough reason to do your best to keep away the stress out of yours and your baby’s life.
Now that you know that your child has a lot to lose or gain from your thoughts and feelings, you need to learn how to keep the stress out of your life. Well, if you are anything like myself when I was pregnant, than you could have a really hard time trying to trick yourself into being stress free. The secret is to find activities that make you really happy and keep repeating them. Here were my 2 best activities that helped my be stress free.
1. Exercise. I know that the majority of you think I am nuts for saying this, but trust me when I say that exercise is the best form of stress relief. I personally know from experience that when your tired and in a bad mood, the last thing you want to do is exercise, but it works. Exercise will help release the endorphins that you need to give you more energy and lift your spirits.
2. The second is Meditation. This is a really good form of stress relief. Proper meditation will put your mind in an awesome mood and let you love the quiet times of being pregnant. One of the best thing you can do is to go online or your favorite bookstore and look for meditation CDs and then read the reviews and pick out the one that fits you best.
Now I hope this can help you to keep the stress during pregnancy out of yours and your babys life. Good luck and enjoy your pregnant moments.
