Pregnancy Preparedness: Top 10 Rules to Live By

In This Feature

Be a Good Mother NOW

Your obstetrician can give you a list of medications acceptable in pregnancy. Weeks six through nine (weeks four through seven after conception) are crucial to your infant's organ development, so this is the time of highest risk. Avoid alcohol, drugs, and smoking. It is also prudent for you and your unborn baby to be evaluated as soon as pregnancy is expected. (Check out our Pregnancy No-Nos slideshow for tips on lifestyle adjustments.)
