If a

the chances of getting the following conditions would be very rare.
Those who do not take any pre-cautions in pregnancy, might have
complications in pregnancy and in delivery. These tips are to help mothers
who did not have prior information about these health information.
1.
Nausea and vomiting:

discussed in pregnancy section. If you have not then, please

to read about how nausea and vomiting is a detoxification mechanism
to protect the growing child from body's internal toxins.
2. Skin itching: In
the seventh month the body starts itching, the intensity is sometimes so
severe that the skin of the stomach tears off if scratched. This occurs
because of toxic accumulation in the body. This mostly occurs with women who
eat a lot of salt and drink very little water. Plenty of water should
be drunk to flush out these toxins.
For temporary relief,
1. Apply castor oil for 15 minutes before
shower.
2. Apply
a decoction of sandal wood and lotus or
3. A
concoction of oil made from the skin of Acacia Speciosa (siras, shirish,
girishamu) along with mustard and licorice.
Apply any one
of these on the breasts and the stomach-abdomen regions.
Apply Ayurvedic oils given in the
Ayurvedic
section.
3. Gestational diabetes:
Women who do
not do much walking during pregnancy, increase the chances of getting
gestational diabetes. Apart from walking diet is also very important.
Eating fiber rich foods keeps the pancreas healthy and keep sugar
levels under control. Eating fiber rich foods also prevents
constipation. Unrefined , unprocessed foods gives all required nutrients
for the growing child. Relaxation is also important. Please also
refer
gestational diabetes.
Please
section for more details.
4. Hyper-tension
Like
diabetes, women who do not walk regularly in diabetes also prone to get
hypertension. Walking relaxes the mind and the body and hence keeps
pressure under control. Intake of salt should be kept to the minimum.
Eating chips high in salt, pickles, highly spice foods with more salt
should be avoided. Relaxation is very very important. Please also refer
Sakthi-clinic section for more details.
5. Edema- swelling in legs
All women who
do not do walking may not end up in diabetes and hypertension, because there
are many factors precipitating in these conditions. It is toxins in the body
that would appear as diseases in different forms. To put in other words,
edema occurs when toxins accumulate and prevent less blood circulation in
the legs.
Walking is
the best means to overcome this problem. For temporary relief, boil a piece
of ginger (chop it finely) in sesame oil or coconut oil for few
minutes. Store this oil in a bottle. Apply this oil over the legs which will
improve blood circulation and remove edema.
6. Constipation
This is
another complication that is seen in women who does less walking and eat
refined foods and drink less water. Walking causes movements in intestines
and this helps in the evacuation of stools. Sedantary people have more
constipation problems than who are active. Constipation is not only
uncomfortable for the mother but also increases toxicity in the system.
Doing water therapy throughout pregnancy prevents these complications.
7.Gas and indigestion:
The list of
problems associated with not walking increases and one among them is gas
problems and indigestion. Walking causes movements in intestines and helps
in getting rid of gas. Eating without food getting digested is one of the
reasons. Drinking or eating lot of cold foods also can contribute because it
can cause poor secretion of digestive juices. So drinking a glass of
warm water before 30 to 60 minutes prior to eating will help in good
secretion of digestive juices. Using lots of ginger and garlic enhances
digestion. In our experience drinking warm water is the best among all.
8. Anemia
Anemia occurs due to many reasons. it could be because of diet poor in iron
or poor absorption in the intestines. How to treat anemia? Taking iron
supplement is the most common approach, but will cause constipation. But the
greater damage taking iron supplements is that they cause oxidation
reactions in the body that will damage many cells. Taking iron in the
natural way is the best option.
Eat one organic orange every day. But it has 12 pieces. So eat two pieces
before breakfast, two after breakfast, two before lunch and two after
lunch and then two before snack time and two after and two before dinner.
This will give vitamin C which would increase iron absorption. Also cook
food in iron vessels and to get natural iron.
If the intestine is not clean enough, poor absorption of iron could happen.
Castor oil cleansing is recommended except during pregnancy and liver
diseases. Then we recommend doing water therapy. Water therapy apart
from keeping the intestine clean and promoting absorption, facilitates the
proper use of the absorbed iron.
9. Over weight
gain
Over weight occurs when the mother eats lots of processed foods. To
maintain healthy weight eat more unrefined foods.
10. Under weight
To increase
weight healthy and quick eat more and eat protein rich foods. We see
advertisements encouraging people to take protein rich drinks or other
supplementing processed foods. But be aware of the fact they bring
quick results but may not be healthy. Unbalanced protein intake can damage
organs like kidneys. They can increase acidic conditions in the body
and favor growth of cancer cells. Cancer is on the rise in countries that
eat unbalancing proportions of proteins and making the body acidic. Read
more about this aspect in the Earth (diet) section.
Pregnant women should maintain their body in alkaline state to allow healthy
growth of the baby. To increase weight in a healthy way eat soaked and
cooked grains and seed varieties like chick peas, garbanzo, green mung ,
adzuki bean,
pinto beans, brown lentils, pigeon peas, blue beans etc. If these are soaked
and cooked with ginger and garlic then do not produce gas. Eat one type of
bean everyday.
Everyday soak 20 or less almonds with 3 to5 dates and next day blend in a
blender to a juice like consistency with milk or without milk. This
helps to
increase weight.
11. Miscarriage
There are
many reasons for miscarriage. It is a natural means for aborting a baby has
some problems. Scientist accidentally discovered that experimental rats when
had defective genes tend to have more miscarriages than normal. As woman and
man gets older there is an increase in defective genes and so chance of
miscarriages are more. It is best to have kids before age of 26 to 28.
we had many cases of mothers with defective genes and having miscarriages
and abnormal babies who could then give birth to healthy children by
following the simple Pancha Bhoota methods. If a mother and father does the
simple detoxification procedures before conception, the chances of having
these complications are avoided.
12. Pre-mature babies
Babies who
escape miscarriage, later end as premature babies. Body is intelligent in
all means to allow growth of a healthy baby. This is nature's law to allow
the evolution of healthy individuals. The reason for premature babies is
body toxicity. |If a mother who had first premature baby wants to avoid a
second one, then if she takes good pre-pregnancy care then her chances of
giving birth to a full term baby is more.
13. Bleeding
in pregnancy
These are
milder symptoms of miscarriage and premature conditions. This is noticed in
women who are mentally and physically stressed. Women who have hypertension
and eat high salty and spicy foods and drinking less water will experience
these symptoms.
14. Ectopic pregnancy
This term
applies to the implantation that occur outside the uterine cavity. This is a
very dangerous situation. This type occurs rarely and in mothers who are
totally not aware of their body health and also in conception. Stress in
mothers are found to be one of the reasons. Research studies show that
inducing stress in animals is found to increase pregnancy abnormalities.
What more proof do we need to assure that a relaxed mother will have less
pregnancy complications.
15. Pre-eclampsia
Stress in
mothers is found to be one of the predominant reasons. In nature,
animals do not have stress to the amount we humans have. they are relaxed
and so do they suffer from less diseases. We found working pregnant
mothers are more prone to these type of birth complications. Research
studies show that inducing stress in animals increased pregnancy
abnormalities. Stressed animals showed the same symptoms of all human
pregnancy complications. What more proof do we need to assure that a
relaxed mother will have less pregnancy complications.
Conclusion
Pregnant
mothers should be relaxed and keep stress to the minimal. Eat
unrefined whole foods and drink plenty of water to keep the body clean. This
is the only means to have less pregnancy and delivery complications. Modern
women need hospital care and cannot give birth to healthy babies at home
because of their poor pregnancy care.
