Pregnant women should stay active during pregnancy. Pelvic floor muscles are important for strengthening your bladder, uterus and bowel and preventing problems in future pregnancies and life. 

Pregnant women should eat a variety of foods from the 5 main food groups.

Gaining the right amount of weight during pregnancy is important to prevent gestational diabetes and other health problems for both you and your baby. 

Active play should be encouraged from birth and will change as babies grow into toddlers and preschoolers.

Breastfeeding can be difficult in the first few weeks. Getting help early is important if you have problems with milk supply, engorged breasts, and sore nipples.

Skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding within the first hour after birth is recommended as it helps with breast milk supply, bonding, and baby's development.
