Our starting point is; Being physically and psychologically ready for pregnancy! The ideal preparation period starts 2 months in advance. Weight comes first in physical preparation. If we calculate that you will gain approximately 10-12 kilos during pregnancy; Losing your excess weight will protect you from the risks that may occur during pregnancy and will make you physiologically better and more comfortable. Again, by increasing your body's flexibility and muscle strength with disciplines such as pilates and yoga before getting pregnant, you can take precautions against pain that will occur in the following weeks of pregnancy and prepare your body for birth. In psychological preparation, this is the period when you get used to the idea of pregnancy. You should rearrange your habits, work tempo, circle of friends and most importantly your soul according to the baby. A balanced diet, increasing fluid intake, avoiding bad habits such as smoking, and maintaining sleep patterns will contribute to both your psychological and physiological preparation.
