    Re: worry to give birth

    Weight has nothing to do with delivery..couple of my friends who were on higher side had normal delivery while those who were thin (incl me) ended up in section....Normal/C-section depends on baby presentation, pelvic size and so many factors...
    So dont worry abt weight....Our best wishes to have a perfect normal delivery...

    Re: worry to give birth

    Dear,

    Don't worry about your weight... things will fall in its place at that moment. Some will deliver within minutes ...some takes hours !!
    I had 16 hours of labour and as others say it is painful, nodoubt.

    Don't worry about the pain. Enjoy everyday of your pregnancy !

    Lots of wishes to you !

    Re: Health tips after delivery

    Hieee,

    I too gave birth to a boy 5 months back. I had a C-section and so my tummy was really big and hanging. Just a few weeks back i went to an ayurvedic centre here in Sharjah and got a delivery massage done. I feel so much better, back pain gone and i feel my tummy too is reducing.

    I should have done these after delivery massages right after my delivery. But in India nothing like this is there, I guess. I think u should try this out. It might be useful.

    Divya

    How Hard Should I Exercise?

    Everyone is different, and it's important to listen to your body. You should be able to sense when you are challenging yourself, when you're not doing enough, and when you are nearing your limit.
    Use the Borg scale to estimate how hard you should work. The numbers on the left of the scale describe how hard you feel you are working.
    For endurance activities, you should gradually work your way up to level 13-with the feeling that you are working at a somewhat difficult level. Gage this according to your own comfort level. Some people might feel this way when they are walking on flat ground; others might feel this way when they are jogging up a hill.
    Strength exercises are higher on the Borg scale. In order to build muscle, gradually work your way up to level 15 to 17 (hard to very hard exercise). You can tell how much of an effort you are making by comparing it to your maximum effort. How hard does your current effort feel compared to when you are lifting the heaviest weight you can lift? Once you start exerting more than a moderate amount of effort in your muscle-building exercises, your strength is likely to increase quickly.
    As your body adapts to different levels of exercise and you become more fit, gradually make your activities more challenging. If you feel that your level of effort doesn't match the numbers you see on the Borg scale, check with an exercise professional. These experts can help you match your level of effort with the right number on the scale.

    Re: Im Worried

    You can walk everyday fr abt 20-30min, its a good for your health. I go for swimming its very good and refreshing and you also get a good night sleep... you can try this as well.

    But for sure you should have some sort of exercise.:)

    Re: Help me with ur opinions...

    mothers first then mil-s.. theres always the PHase 1 OF DELIVERY & THEN A PHASE 2.. so split the moms into p 1 and p2.. thats all.. personally I prefer my mom around with whom I'M MOST COMFORTABLE ON EARTH rather than a stranger. later on for bonding or whatever theres always that Phase 2.. ALSO 4 some help around.
