You will find your body going through some changes. The skin will stretch to accommodate the growth of your abdomen as well as your breasts. With these changes you may exhibit some color changes, like dark patches of skin on your face. These patches are sometimes called the “Mask of Pregnancy”. You may exhibit a line running down the middle of your abdomen between your belly button and your pubic area. This line is called Linea Nigra or the “pregnancy line” . The increase in your melanin production is what makes the skin change during pregnancy. This change occurs during your second trimester. Can you choose the fact below that is incorrect?
· The Linea Nigra is not harmful to you or your baby so it does not need medical treatment
· After birth of the baby the linea nigra line should start to fade – it may not disappear completely.
· You should wear sunscreen whenever you are out in the sun exposing your belly and other areas of your skin
· The dark line running down the middle of your stomach could tell your baby gender – if it runs to your belly button, well it’s a girl and if it keep going all the way to your ribs then it’s a boy!
· Do not use any kind of bleaching cream during your pregnancy or while you are breastfeeding. It can be harmful to your baby.
As the weather changes from cold to mild to hot- One may wonder how do I dress my newborn. Can I use a fan with the baby in the room. What is the easiest way to tell if my baby is to hot or too cold. How do I tell if my baby is too hot? Your baby may have flushed cheeks. Feel the nape of the neck to see if it feels sweaty or too cold to the touch. Over heated babies may have sweating and fast breathing. Which statements below are untrue?
· When dressing a baby the general rule – dress the baby in as many layer as you have on and then add one more layer.
· Never ever use a fan in the room with a newborn it can cause pneumonia.
· Babies that sleep in a less ventilated room sleeping with a fan – lower the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
Leaving the ceiling fan on a low setting is not going to cause a cold. Baby should be at least swaddled or in a sleeping sack , socks or booties. Most of the newborn heat escapes from the head as well as their tiny little feet.
Make sure your infant is always dry because damp clothing can cause hypothermia.
Use good parenting judgment- too hot or not too hot? Consider the temperature outside.

After having your baby, you want to use the placenta for encapsulation. Placental encapsulation is the practice of eating the placenta after it has been steamed, dehydrated, ground and placed into pills. Prior to delivery of your baby the amniotic fluid is noted to be meconium stained. Can you still do encapsulation? What is the correct answer? Do you know?
Editor’s note: There is little research available to either support or oppose the tradition of placental encapsulation. There are a number of proposed benefits of the custom, and limited risks if the placenta is stored correctly and ingested only by the mother. If you feel that placenta encapsulation is right for you, be sure to contact your healthcare provider to receive more information on the proper procedure for it. It is also important to be aware of any laws in your state that make it illegal to remove the placenta from the hospital.
