Your body is changing, your hormones are taking on a life of their own and information is pouring in from all sides - welcome to your pregnancy. Yes, being pregnant is a bit tough, especially in the beginning when your body starts to go through all the big changes. Do you know how to best take care of your pregnant body? For example, that you are recommended to take folic acid during your pregnancy? Natalben Gravid is a food supplement that contains vitamins, minerals and Omega-3. All in one capsule!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here are three simple and upbeat tips to help you navigate your pregnant body forward.<\/p>\n

\"Handla<\/a><\/p>\n

1. activity - move in your own way<\/h3>\n

During pregnancy, your body is working at full speed, your hormones are changing and your body is getting heavier. Your stomach muscles stretch and your center of gravity shifts, but your body can handle this better if you stay active.<\/p>\n

Choose a form of exercise that you enjoy. It could be walking, swimming, light weight training or just dancing in your living room. It doesn't have to be perfect.<\/p>\n

2. diet - boost your body with good energy<\/h3>\n

As a pregnant woman, you need more nutrition! The Swedish National Food Agency has clear recommendations on what you can eat and what you should avoid. The amount of energy you need is individual, and you have to find out for yourself what your body needs and feels good from. Remember to give your body nutritious and good food for the best conditions to support your child's development.<\/p>\n

Your midwife can always help you with personalized advice if you feel unsure or want help finding a good balance.<\/p>\n

3. supplements - capsules full of nutrition<\/h3>\n

Eating a varied and nutritious diet provides you with most of what you need, but sometimes it is not enough. The Swedish National Food Agency recommends that pregnant women take a supplement of\u00a0400 micrograms of folic acid daily<\/strong>. Folic acid deficiency increases the risk of a baby being born with spina bifida. In addition, folic acid is essential for all cell regeneration and the need is particularly high in a growing fetus.<\/p>\n

If you don't eat enough fish, supplementing with omega-3 can be valuable, especially as the fatty acid DHA contributes to the normal functioning of the brain and eyesight.<\/p>\n

\"Handla<\/a><\/p>\n

Natalben Pregnant<\/strong>\u00a0is a food supplement specially adapted for pregnant women. It contains Quatrefolic\u00ae, a form of folic acid that is easily absorbed by the body, Omega-3 and 17 other vitamins and minerals. All in one capsule!<\/p>\n
