So many peoples eagerly wait for rainy season as it helps us to get relief from intense summer heat. But the season can also make us susceptible to various infections and communicable disease. And if you are pregnant, you need to be extra careful to stay away from difficulties.

Here are some tips to have a safe pregnancy:
 
Drink clean and filtered water:
As we know that water play very important role for our body, always drink boiled and filtered water as water-borne diseases are very common in the monsoon. Drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration, which is a common problem during pregnancy.

Wear comfortable and loose clothes:
Wear comfortable and loose clothes during monsoon season as you can sweat more than you do in summer because of the increasing humidity. The foetal stage is considered to be hypersensitive to bear the temperature fluctuations in the mother's body

Avoid street foods:
Avoid street foods during pregnancy as they can be contaminated and pose an enormous threat to the health of your baby.

Wear comfortable shoes:
Wear comfortable shoes that have an excellent grip and won't slip.

Wash and sanitise:
 Whenever you step out in the rain always wash your hands and feet after coming back home and sanitise as often as you can because rainwater mixed with sewage water and dirt can lead to infections.
