Tips for Working during Your Pregnancy
Most women can continue to work during
their pregnancy. Though the first few months of a pregnancy can be uncomfortable due to morning sickness and
other unpleasant pregnancy
symptoms, there isn’t any reason most women can’t
continue to work—provided their jobs aren’t too physically demanding.
Being pregnant can make working less
enjoyable, but it doesn’t have to be unbearable. There are a few things that pregnant women can do to ease their
discomfort:
Bring plenty of snacks. Morning sickness is worse if
you let your stomach get empty. It’s a good idea to have healthy snacks like nuts and whole wheat crackers
nearby for anytime snacking.
Stay hydrated. Your body needs extra fluids during
pregnancy, particularly if you are losing fluids due to morning sickness or diarrhea. Keep a bottle of water or
juice with you at all times.
Get
your vitamins. Make sure that you’re eating healthy and getting enough
of all the vitamins and minerals you need during your pregnancy. In particular, make sure that you’re getting
sufficient iron and protein. If you aren’t, you risk becoming fatigued.
Avoid the things that trigger your nausea. Morning
sickness is often triggered by smells and tastes. If the person who shares your cubicle brings a particularly
smelly lunch to their desk, politely ask them to eat in the lunchroom. Failing that, remove yourself from the
situation. Go for a walk outdoors and get some fresh air.
Get
proper support. If you work at a desk job, make sure that your chair is
comfortable. Bring in some extra cushions if you need some more support for your back.
Take breaks. You’re pregnant, so you deserve to take
some extra breaks! Getting up from your desk and moving around can help you feel refreshed and energized.
Getting outdoors for some fresh air can help alleviate queasiness.
Take a deep breath. If you ever start to feel
overwhelmed, remove yourself from the situation. Go to a quiet place in your workplace, close your eyes and
focus on your breathing for a few minutes. Workplace stress is bad enough when you don’t have the added pressure
of being pregnant. Remember that you control the stress—it doesn’t control you!
Most importantly, be safe! If your job normally
involves performing physically demanding tasks (such as prolonged standing, heavy lifting or operating heavy
machinery), ask your employer to find someone else to take over. During your pregnancy, you should stick to safe
activities that don’t place undue stress on your body.
