In this era of information overload, pregnancy can be quite daunting for the new mother and her doctor who needs to advise her on safe practices and a healthy life style during her pregnancy. It is often the case that women turn to family, friends and social media for advice, ultimately being presented with conflicting information. This article serves to explore some pregnancy "dos and don'ts" and provide evidence based advice and expert opinion based on established international guidelines where available. Topics covered include the ingestion of soft cheese and the risks of listeriosis, sushi, caffeine, cats and the risks of Toxoplasmosis, hair dye, hot baths, air travel and shift work. Well proven and dangerous habits such as alcohol use and smoking have not been covered in this article. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
