Pregnant women are more likely to feel tired at work, especially under the pressure of busy work in the office environment. This can cause pregnant women to have many physical and mental problems if their working style is not adjusted appropriately.
Therefore, pregnant women should grasp some basic things to ensure health throughout pregnancy as well as work more effectively.
Choose comfortable evening gown
During pregnancy, a woman's body will have many changes. Therefore, choosing a wide range of outfits will help pregnant women feel comfortable when sitting at work all day. Avoid wearing tight-fitting clothes or non-breathing materials that can cause discomfort, fatigue and even affect blood circulation.
Choosing a pregnant woman's outfit with stretching and sweat-absorbing properties will help pregnant women work the whole day in the most relaxed mood. In addition, you should choose sweaters or shoes with low, soft soles to avoid the risk of slipping or causing back pain - one of the common problems of women during pregnancy.
Adjusting working posture
Office work often takes many hours, easily causing pregnant women to encounter some problems such as back pain, swollen legs, or neck and shoulder fatigue. To limit this condition, pregnant women need to maintain a reclining position, have their legs perpendicular to the floor, and occasionally change their posture or stand up and walk gently.
Pregnant women should also not forget to use chairs with a sturdy back and add a small pillow behind to help reduce pressure on the spine and pelvis.
Pay attention to your diet and rest
The office environment is busy but pregnant women try not to eat or drink in moderation. Maintaining nutrition will help pregnant women provide adequate nutrients for both mother and fetus.
Bring additional meals such as fruits, milk, and nutritional nuts to supplement energy during breaks. At the same time, you should take advantage of a short sleep at noon to help the body recover quickly, reduce stress and fatigue.
Proactively exchanging work with colleagues
To avoid overload at work, proactively discuss with colleagues if you encounter difficulties or need to adjust working hours. Regularly exchanging with colleagues will help pregnant women to adjust the volume and working time appropriately.
Receiving support from colleagues will help pregnant women stay in a positive state, reduce psychological pressure and anxiety during pregnancy.
