Unsafe Work During Pregnancy
QUESTION
Dear Midwife,
I'm working as a club singer, and had recently found out that I'm 3 weeks pregnant. I'm excited about it, so is my boyfriend.As happy as I am with my job, I know that it's not the best condition for my baby. You see, every time I think I moved too much, or force my voice too much while singing, I feel uncomfortable where the baby is.
Is this really harmful for my baby or is it just me being paranoid? And if it is harmful, how does it affect my baby?
Worried sick,

QUESTION
Dear Midwife,
I am now about 9 weeks pregnant. I found out I was pregnant in the second week. A day or two before I discovered I was pregnant I was using a tek belt. It's a vibrating belt used on the stomach as a work out. I used it for about half hour on the stomach at high intensity and about half hour on my back part or as they're called love handles. I wonder if this could have affected the baby's development in any way?Benefits of Pregnancy Massage
The pregnant body undergoes numerous changes physically as well as physiologically and spiritually that can cause stress and or discomfort to the mother. Massage is a wonderful way to help alleviate many of these discomforts, as well as promotes a sense of well-being.
