| Pregnancy Skin Care | | 2008-06-23 21:16:00 | | Pregnancy is an amazing experience. Feeling a new life growing inside, kicking at you and responding to your actions is a truly unique experience. You really gain a new appreciation for the abilities of the human body as your stomach stretches beyond anything you had ever imagined to accommodate a new baby. However, there are definite downsides to being pregnant and one of them is the side effect of all that stretching . . . stretch marks. What Causes Stretch Marks Stretch marks occur when the skin is stretched beyond it´s elasticity. The upper layer stretches and the lower layer of skin tends to tear, causing small rips in the tissue. This results in some rather ugly red marks that feel different from the regular texture of your skin. These will fade to white after your pregnancy, but this can take time and they never really do go away.. Whether or not you will get stretch marks really depends on genetics, the elasticity of your skin and how big you get during the pregnancy. Some wom | | By: Health Care Guide | | |

| Healthy Pregnancy: Pilates Helps Expecting Mothers From Pregnancy Thru Post Partum | | 2008-06-20 21:26:50 | | Most people think of Pilates as a new form of exercise because of its recent surge of popularity in the fitness and healthcare industry. In reality, Joseph Pilates invented about 80 years ago by. Pilates was a sickly child with asthma. To help fight his illness and build his strength, he experimented with various mind-body disciplines and later became an accomplished skier, diver, gymnast, and boxer. While in internment during WWI in England, he taught fellow interns his concepts and exercises that he developed over 20 years of self-study and apprenticeship in yoga, Zen, and ancient Greek and Roman physical regimens. During this time, Pilates began devising the system of original floor exercises known today as “Pilates matwork". Within a few years, he became a nurse to the many internees under care with wartime disease and physical injury.

| Cocaine, Pregnancy & A Rhinoplasty Surgeon | | 2008-06-16 06:42:00 | | Natasha McElhone, the late Dr. Martin Kelly’s widow is expecting a baby and looks so healthy despite her grief that you can’t help but admire the woman. Dr. Kelly was considered to be one of the best plastic surgeons in the UK and died a tragic death believed to have been caused due to an onset of a viral infection. He was especially noted for his cosmetic surgery work in reconstructing deformities and in rhinoplasty. One of the most celebrated nose surgery cases he took on was the cocaine-busted nose of the socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson. The repeated drug use can leave a body with a collapsed septum in the nose. Dr. Kelly corrected this deformity in Tara’s nose and gave her new nose added definition and support. Despite Tara’s reservations about the nose enhancement surgery, she went ahead and got her nose repaired.

| Very Early Signs Of Pregnancy - Do You Know The 10 Pregnancy | | 2008-06-12 22:21:00 | | Very early signs of pregnancy - are there 10 pregnancy signs? Yes, there are signs that indicate very early that you are pregnant. Some women will experience one or two of them, others will have several of the very early signs of pregnancy.Once you have conceived, it will take about a week for the fertilized egg to implant in the uterus. As implantation happens, it is now possible to experience one or more of the 10 pregnancy signs and begin to know you are pregnant. Around this time, hormone levels begin to change, and the body reacts to these new hormone levels.Here are 10 pregnancy signs:1. Light Spotting - if you have conceived, spotting can happen when implantation occurs before your menstrual period should begin. Pregnancy bleeding from implantation is pinkish or brownish and not heavy. A normal menstrual flow should begin light, become heavy, then taper off again before ending.2. More Frequent Urination - urinating more often is one of the very early signs of pregnancy. Many wom | | By: women's health information center | | |

| Dealing With Headaches During Pregnancy | | 2008-06-08 21:55:03 | | Although we still do not entirely understand headaches one thing that we do know is that two of the commonest types of headache - tension and migraine headaches - are far more commonly seen in women, which suggests that hormones play an important part in the onset of headaches. So, since hormone levels fluctuate wildly during pregnancy, it is no surprise to find that women frequently suffer from headaches at this time. Headaches are particular common during the early stages of pregnancy and tend to reduce during the second and third trimester as hormone levels begin to settle down. The good news however is that women do not simply have to put up with headaches while they are carrying and there is a lot which can be done to both prevent and treat them. Stress is one thing which can trigger a headache and most women would probably agree that pregnancy is a stressful time. This can be eased considerably however with both gentle exercise and also with meditation. Rest is also important bec | | By: Health Care Guide | | |

| Abdominoplasty For Thin Women After Pregnancy | | 2008-05-21 23:37:00 | | I just checked out Nicole Kidman’s preggy-belly in Sunday’s Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas and she couldn’t look less radiant. Her hand carefully cradling her tummy and a knowing smile on her face, Kidman looked like she wanted the world to sit up and really take notice that she is pregnant. Considering the skepticism surrounding her pregnancy announcement, it seemed like a quaint gesture of assertion. The versatile actress and her musician husband are gung-ho about their pregnancy though and simply can’t wait for the baby. Nicole however, looks like she will keep the mommy magic alive long after she has given birth if she goes ahead with a breast augmentation. As part of a mommy makeover package, a breast augmentation surgery is usually accompanied by a tummy tuck procedure. But in Nicole’s place it is doubtful if she will have one as a post-pregnancy tummy tuck is necessary only if there is muscle and skin sagging in the tummy area.

The darling lump that was noticed earlier this month on the Australian actor has become a nice-sized bump which left the world gawking at the ACMA in Las Vegas on the 18th. Nicole accompanied her musician hubby Keith Urban for the country music awards show and the couple looked adorable as they showed off their pregnant state. For a tall girl, Nicole looks amazingly frail and willowy without looking emaciated. The Plastic Surgery Institute of California thinks she might be one of those moms partial to a mommy makeover. Nicole was only recently heard to have wished for ‘big boobs’ as a nice round up for her pregnancy joys.

| Tummy Tuck Beauty After Pregnancy | | 2008-05-20 03:55:00 | | I am so not loving Jessica Alba’s Charlie Chaplin impersonation! The June issue of Allure depicts the 27-year-old Alba dressed like the funny man and holding a baby carriage. However cute she may be, she certainly doesn’t pass muster as Chaplin. I wonder how she will be in her latest comedy, The Love Guru. Pregnant Jessica just may be on the verge of getting a tummy tuck surgery after she gives birth to her child. In an interview with Elle magazine last year, she has this to say about plastic surgery, “I'm not going to say never for sure, though. I don't know if, for example, having babies will stretch my stomach beyond what is acceptable.” Now that’s a concern a lot of mums have to deal with post-pregnancy: stretched skins. The distended stomach does not retain its lost muscle strength after the mother has given birth to the child. Cosmetic surgery procedures like a tummy tuck surgery are great ways to get the loose belly tissues tightened and held in place. I | | By: Abdominoplasty Beverly Hills | | |

| Perfect Pregnancy Nutrition and Facts About Calcium and Folate for Proper Pregnancy Nutrition | | 2008-03-30 21:52:00 | | Expectant mothers need to monitor their nutritional needs carefully. Proper nutrition during pregnancy requires a very safe, balanced diet. According to many doctors and nutritionists, a good rule of thumb for proper pregnancy nutrition is sticking to a diet of whole food, high in fiber and low in fat while gaining only about 22-30 pounds over ideal body weight during the total pregnancy. The added stress of pregnancy can create an increased demand for vitamins in the mother's body. When the body is in stress mode, more adrenal hormones are produced, which speeds up metabolism. This can cause a rapid depletion in nutrients stored in the mother's body thus robbing the mother and the fetus of valuable vitamins and minerals. When searching for the best pregnancy nutrition, be aware that it is better to consume vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that are attached to whole foods, not isolated.

| Pregnancy After A Tummy Tuck Surgery: | | 2008-02-29 01:59:00 | | Tummy tuck surgeries are a favorite cosmetic surgery procedure for women who have just given birth. An abdominoplasty can tauten, smoothen and slim down excess skin from a pregnancy.Doctors try to ascertain that patients who want to bear more children in the future are discouraged from having a tummy tuck cosmetic surgery procedure. The reason behind this precaution lies in the muscle behavior during pregnancy. The skin and the muscles in the tummy region stretch out to accommodate the fetus. Over a period of nine months the skin and muscles dilate enough to lose any former elasticity that may have been achieved from a prior tummy tuck.Pockets of fat that are not very exercise-friendly also build up in the abdominal wall adding to the tummy shape. But over-all, a tummy tuck procedure is not considered harmful for the fetus. However, this might differ for different patients and it is best to consult your gynecologist and your plastic surgeon.

| Solution of Morning Sickness in Pregnancy | | 2008-02-26 23:59:00 | | Pregnancy : Solution of Morning Sickness in Pregnancy Morning Sickness in pregnancy duration – oh what a catastrophe it is, do you also feel the same? Morning sickness during pregnancy is mostly because of the eating habits. Do not worry; you are not the only one who faces this. Morning sickness is faced basically because of the increased food requirements of the body. If you keep your stomach full at all times, especially during morning, the morning sickness, may subside. "Just eat a few saltines and you'll be ok". I don't know about you, but as someone who suffered with prolonged, severe morning sickness (which I affectionately call morning noon and night sickness), when I hear someone say this, I just want to slug them! If you're suffering with nausea and vomiting of pregnancy, you're not alone. Most women experience it to some degree during their first trimester. If you're one of the unfortunate few whose symptoms last longer than the typical 6-12 weeks, I empathize. I've ha | | By: Parenting | | |

But yes, teen pregnancy is a time for even more care and nurturing as compared to adult pregnancy.
