It is a time when women try to take particular care of their health. Getting plenty of rest exercise, and good nutrition are all aspects of a pregnant woman's health.
Drug use is another important aspect of a woman's health during pregnancy.
Some prescription drugs can also be a problem during pregnancy, so discuss this with your doctor as soon as you know you are pregnant. Drugs can be harmful to a developing foetus throughout the pregnancy but the first three months is considered the time of most risk because the major organs and limbs of the baby are forming. How often the drug is used and the dose taken. Whether one or more drugs are used. Some drugs have a cumulative or combined action which is more likely to be harmful for the baby.
