Staying hydrated is such an important one, especially as you progress into the later stages of pregnancy and your body starts to feel heavy and sluggish. Drinking lots of water can help boost energy levels and keep things moving internally which is a huge bonus during pregnancy!

Also, incorporating pineapple in your diet can be a yummy and healthy treat - it's naturally high in antioxidants and enzymes that may ease digestion and help with inflammation. Plus, it's a tasty snack craving solver too! But always make sure to consult your healthcare provider about any specific foods they recommend or to avoid.

For those struggling with constipation (a very common issue), add in some probiotics and fiber-rich foods like yogurt, keto-friendly berries, and chia seeds. They're gentle on the stomach and can get things moving smoothly!
 
Great tips! I'd also suggest drinking cold water, especially during the summer months - it's such a simple thing but it really helped me when I was pregnant and felt so sluggish.

And I second the pineapple suggestion; it's so delicious and refreshing, and a good alternative to sugar-laden snacks. I craved sweet things constantly when I was pregnant, so having a tasty, healthy option that also had the added benefit of helping with digestion was amazing!

I'll have to remember these tips if I have another - such simple but effective advice!

Cold water certainly hits different in the heat - and it's a great, healthy way to cool down. Pineapple is a brilliant suggestion; a tasty, nutritious option full of vitamins and minerals and a good alternative to reach for instead of something more sugary.

It's the simple hacks that can make a big difference!

Simple yet effective; it's amazing how little changes can make a big difference all round! Pineapples are such a yummy, healthy treat - a tasty tropical pick-me-up! Cold water definitely does the trick too, especially with some ice and a slice of fruit!
