What's the best age to have a baby?

Biologically, your twenties should be the best for you. However emotionally and financially, it may be at a later date. Risk of a difficult pregnancy increases when you are over 35. In addition you're also more likely to have a Down's syndrome baby. On the other hand, if you are under 18, you have a greater risk of having still-birth or low-birth weight baby.

Can I choose my baby's sex?

Biologically, your baby's sex is determined by your husband's sperm that can be either male or female. Some research suggests that certain food can influence the sperms to have more Y chromosomes which increases the chance of having baby girl.

How can I be sure if my baby is all right?

The chances of the baby being abnormal are very small. Most abnormalities occur in the first weeks, and end in an early miscarriage. If you have a healthy life style, you can reduce this risk.

Is it okay to take a long journey?

You should not travel alone in your pregnancy, especially if you drive yourself.

What's the best bra?

You need to give your breasts the support they need in pregnancy. So choose a cotton bra with deep band under the cups with broad shoulder straps and adjustable back. You should check your size regularly as your breasts will continue to swell throughout your pregnancy.

Is it safe for the baby if I'm having sex during my pregnancy?

You should consult your doctor first if you have any concerns. Usually it's safe if your pregnancy is normal since your baby is protected and cushioned by the bag of fluid surrounding him.
