How Birth Control Pills Prevents Pregnancy

guest — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 09:42:10 GMT

If you are a woman who is taking birth control pills, you are usually 99.9 percent protected from pregnancy. Birth control pills, however, will not completely prevent pregnancy for women who are sexually active.

These pills are essentially hormones. What they do is alter the body’s natural hormones slightly, preventing an egg from being released from the ovaries each month. When no egg is released, no pregnancy can occur.

CONTROL WEIGHT GAIN DURING PREGNANCY

guest — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 07:24:13 GMT

Weight gain during pregnancy starts around the third month due to an increase in the size of various organs, like the uterus and the breasts. The total weight gain differs from woman to woman, but should not be more than about 10-12 kgs.

The first thing to do is to see that you are eating the foods which are part of a well-balanced diet. The "eating for two" concept is outdated. What is important is that you get adequate nourishment in the form of vitamins, proteins and minerals for your own and your baby's well being. Your doctor will prescribe vitamins, calcium and iron supplements to check deficiencies and the baby will help himself according to his requirements.

Pregnant and training??

guest — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 21:34:10 GMT

Okay,

7 weeks pregnant with first child. Did a half on the 25th and sprint tri on the 7th. Excited, ready for it to be over and visualizing an easy bike transition.. have lollipop type pedals for bike shoes and some difficulty on hooking them on but will still ride with them.

If there are other threads, I have not found them so forgive me, if i repeat myself.

What are all the pregnant athletes doing for training? How has your pregnancy made a difference for you? I fell off my bike about 2 weeks ago , before I knew I was pregnant. Didn't hurt self too bad, scrapes that are healed. A little nervous about falling but will continue to ride and get over it. Swimming is great and running is good.

What weights are pregnant people doing? I am going to be a fit pregnant woman! I didn't lose the 30# that I wanted to but will definitely make my weight goal, after the baby is born.

What weights are good to do? Going back to working out more, since I've been working extra shifts these past 3 weeks.

Anyways, all you ACTIVE, BEAUTIFUL, HEALTHY PREGNANT women, come on and chat!
