  • Prenatal Classes:

are a huge trend these days, where you will be guided about every step and specific requirements, dos and don'ts about pregnancy. Prenatal or antenatal classes have a lot to teach you. You can enrol yourself during the second trimester of your pregnancy as that is the time when you need maximum training on preparing yourself for delivery. They teach you about all the discourses pertaining to pregnancy and post delivery.

Cloudnine antenatal classes- These are expert guided and very informative.

  • A Yoga centre :

or a gym for regular pregnancy exercises. In corollary to the above mentioned classes, a yoga centre will also be able to help you with many exercises that can be done under a gym instructor, more carefully and with prudence.

  • Cloudnine Yoga Classes
  • A Chemist store :

close to your place with home delivery services. Your doctor has prescribed you medicines that need urgent intake and otherwise also a chemist shop which can do home delivery can be a helpful resource.

  • A Grocery/ Departmental :

store with a home delivery facility if possible, since having to shop for groceries within half a mile from your place is a very cool hangout for a small yet important visit especially for the pregnant you and if it can help you out with home delivery, it’s going to be a win-win situation for both them and you.

  • A Store :

that caters to shopping for pregnant women with maternity clothes and even for the newborn. You already have a lot to ponder upon and in the middle of all this you need to shop for yourself and prepare for the newcomer in your life becomes a mammoth task. All you need is a one stop shop for all your maternity shopping.

  • Emotional and financial support :

The emotional and of course financial support of your family members and their presence is quintessential. The most important person around you would be your husband, mother, mother-in-law, etc. but there are some other essential people and things that may or may not be counted as essential according to your choice and requirement, if found around you, can be of great help.

  • Someone with a firsthand experience :

That person could well be your mother, mother -in-law, your elder sister or perhaps a friend who has already experienced this stage.

  • A helper :

One person to be around you, to aide you in chores for e.g. with picking stuff and keeping them at places, wherever you are not allowed to sit and stand and specially bend. This purpose could also well be served with the presence of any paid or voluntary services.

  • Conveyance at every hour :

Husbands have to specially take care of their wives in pregnancy during second and third trimesters especially since the belly bump becomes significant hence, special care is needed. If your pregnant wife is supposed to get out of the house due to any reason, you will have to make sure that they always have a conveyance that you can afford. Could be the personal vehicle or hired transport like a cab or something that is under your budget since the trips might be frequent
