According to Dr. Tibrewala, pregnancy makes you prone to common problems like acidity as well. Digestion is slower during pregnancy. So, make sure you don't eat heavy meals.

Eat lighter meals throughout the day. However, if you have to have some medicine, antacids are safe. Also, drink lots of water so that you don't get dehydrated.

Nausea Nuisance

Nausea and vomiting are also quite common pregnancy problems. Remember, before you pop a pill by yourself, get your doctor's advice on what kind of medication to take.

And to Say the Least

According to Dr. Tibrewala, you might think that any medication will be harmful for your baby. But, never deprive yourself of medication while you are ill, thinking that it might not be good for your baby.

Remember, if you don't get treated, you risk complications. Although it is a bad idea to self medicate, don't neglect your health either.
