How to deal with your pregnancy in summers


I often talk to my clients who are so very pregnant and due in the summer months because I know that pregnancy adds an extra burden to the usual summer heat. So, here are some tips that you should keep in mind during the summer while pregnant.  

Stay Hydrated: Drink at least 2 liters of clear liquids, preferably water. If you are outside you need at least eight ounces of water for every hour you are outside. Drink before you get thirsty, thirst can be a sign that you've waited too long.  You may be retaining water during your pregnancy and a great way to get rid of it is to flush it out with more liquid.  

Avoid Sun: During pregnancy it's best to avoid direct sunlight. If you are in the sun use a 30-45 SPF sunscreen. Try to go outside in the cooler parts of the sunshine, early morning and late afternoon, rather than high noon.   

Go for light colored clothing: Wear clothing that is

Motherhood: the greatest gift of all


Every year on 8th of May we celebrate Mother’s Day. Motherhood completes a woman; in fact it makes you a better person. There is a famous saying by Robert Browning that Motherhood: all love begins here and ends here”. 

We came across many women who unfortunately couldn’t become mother on their own. Often they fall in the trap of infertility. Due to fast paced life and sedentary lifestyles motherhood has taken a back seat and people are busy in building their careers. Our lifestyle plays a pivotal role in maintaining the overall body health and thereby affects our fertility which further reduces the chances of conceiving naturally. 

Easy and convenient reach to junk food like burgers, pizzas, Chinese food etc, wrong eating habits, late working hours, disturbed sleep patterns, too much stress and much more; all these factors severely affects our fertility. Hence, you become infertile and couldn’t become mother on your own. 

According to ICMR (Indian council of medical research) bulletin it is estimated that globally between 60-80 million couples suffer from infertility every year, of which probably between 15- 20 million are in India alone. 

With the approach of the twentieth century the world has witnessed a series of new technologies. Thanks to science and we are glad to our modern technology that with In Vitreo Fertilization or IVF technique, a woman can now enjoy motherhood and become mother on their own even after crossing their puberty age. Women have lower pregnancy chances after 30. The fertility of a woman starts declining after she crosses 30 and men fertility too starts dropping after 35. The chances of miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy or chromosomal abnormality go up as you come of age in such couples. In such cases IVF support is very high. 

At our Mother’s Lap IVF centre we have world class advanced fertility, infertility, IUI, IVF and Surrogacy treatments available. You can witness the history our centre is the brightest ray of hope for all those couples who have been trying for years to conceive. Our centre is dedicated to every aspect of infertility treatment to help the patients to achieve pregnancy in the shortest possible time.  

Thanks to IVF, women around the world have experienced the joy of being mother. 

Happy Mother’s Day to all of you.!
