Question 1

what is the normal temperature for a pregnant woman?mine has been 96.8/ 98.6for two weeks

Accepted Answer

Normal: It is normal to have a daily fluctuation in your temperature even if you are not pregnant and when pregnant you can expect mildly elevated temperatures as your metabolic rate speeds up. The range you have mentioned is fine.

Question 2

if a woman has been smoking for 8 years and stops prior to pregnancy, will have any effect on the child?

Accepted Answer

Positive effect: The primary known effects of maternal smoking include decreased final weight/size. This is thought due to destruction of some placental blood vessels from the chemicals involved. There are conflicting ideas about attention deficits.Stopping "clears the air" and allows mom to be the best nest for baby. The fact she is a former smoker seems not to affect the outcome as long as she is healthy.

Question 3

during months of pregnancy how long woman can do intercourse with her husband? i heard till to 8 months, kindly explain me easily!

Accepted Answer

No restrictions: Sexual activity is not restricted at any point during pregnancy unless there are certain complications of pregnancy. If your doctor has not restricted intercourse for some complication then sexual activity is ok.

Question 4

Question 5

what are all the ways that its possible to be pregnant for a woman?

Accepted Answer

In or out of uterus: Either the fetus implants in the uterus properly, or not.  If not, it could be in in the abdomen, in a fallopian tube, or perhaps someplace else.  As to numbers, anywhere from one to as many as eight, or even nine, at one time.

Question 6

can a pregnant woman go kart?

Accepted Answer

Not the best idea: Gokarting can be safe if there is minimal jostling and noone runs into you while racing.  Given that this is almost completely impossible to control, you should not go gokarting during pregnancy.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Yes: There is no medical contraindication to eating dates during pregnancy.  They supply niacin, folate, (folic acid) vitamin B-6, pantothenic acid, zinc, manganese, fiber and magnesium.  One study found that the consumption of date fruit in the last 4 weeks before labour significantly reduced the need for induction and augmentation of labour, and produced a more favourable, but non-significant, delivery outcome.

Accepted Answer

Eat your steak!: A pregnant woman can definitely eat steak, but it should be cooked all the way through. Some may think this ruins the steak. To have a steak that is cooked well-done but still tender, try a thinner cut.
