- Drink 80 ounces of water a day
- Eat 80 grams of protein a day (a hamburger has about 30 grams)
- Increase calcium consumption by huge amounts
- Eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day
- Exercise for at least half an hour every day
- Sleep 12 hours a day (um, does that mean I have to go to bed at 7:00 p.m.?)
- Do perineal massage for five minutes every day (I can't even REACH down there)
- Lay on an incline with feet above head for 20 minutes three times a day (when I was trying to turn the baby)
- Get on hands and knees with belly hanging down for a good amount of time each day (to encourage baby to get in correct birthing position)
- Eat extra fish (but only the right kinds of fish) or take supplements to increase baby's brain power
- Spend 1 hour each day with headphones attached to stomach so baby can listen to Mozart
- Drink 5-6 cups of pregnancy tea (red raspberry leaf) every day to tone uterus
- Do 200 kegels a day
And I'm sure there's something I'm forgetting. Does anyone want to subsidize me so I can quit my job to attend to these duties?
