Pregnancy Myths (Part 3)

Posted by Kero at Wednesday, November 07, 2007
I feel sleepy now. For the past two days, I sleep until 12 noon hihi. That is why my blog babies had been very quiet. Anyway, i am back on my feet again so we continue with my entries on pregnancy myths.



Pregnancy myth #6 -- You cannot dye your hair in pregnancy
Medical experts say there is no data available to support the harmful effects of hair dye. Accordingly, very little dye reaches the scalp, if there is any at all.

Pregnancy myth #7 --
Eating nuts and saffron is good for intelligence and the complexion of the baby, respectively
Nuts are definitely good for pregnant women due to their high vitamin and calorific content. However, their role in helping to produce a baby that is smarter or more intelligent has not been proven scientifically says medical experts. In addition, skin color is dependent on parental genes and familial tendencies.

Pregnancy myth #8 -- Do not drink coffee unless it is with milk
Most studies show no problems with two or three cups of coffee a day., though large amounts can lead to low birth weigh
t babies. Also there are minimal harmful effects from the use of artificial sweeteners such as aspartame found in diet soda. Like everything else, moderation is best.

That is a relief to know because though i am not a coffee person, i do indulge on drinking coke maybe once a week because i feel very warm and thirsty. It's like only a soda can quench the thirst hihi.

Have to take my nap now. Ciao!!
