The body goes through many changes during pregnancy. To sustain these changes water is a very important element, nourishing foetal circulation, skin hydration, increasing blood volume, maintaining the body temperature and combating tiredness.
Pregnant woman should attempt to consume up to 2.5 litres of water a day, as this prevents complications during pregnancy such as infections, high blood pressure and constipation.
If you are a career woman, these nine months could seem to be the most lethargic time of one’s life, but with proper physical exercise and water intake, it may be more pleasurable than expected.
Physical exercise is also of utmost importance. Every woman should try to walk as often as they can. If your job entails long hours in front of the computer, be sure to alternate your position from time to time to avoid tiredness and swelling. One way of ensuring this is to take a trip to the water cooler every 30 to 45 minutes. By doing this you’ll consume much needed water and you will be getting a little bit of exercise at the same time.
There are many benefits to having a water cooler, aside from showing your staff that you care about their health and wellbeing. The water that comes out of them is much cooler than that from a tap which is a bonus in summer time!
As unsafe water should be avoided during pregnancy, the office water cooler is the way to go because it does not contain any substantial chemicals. So, if you are not 100% sure about the quality of your tap water make sure you get one. It’s safer, the water is instantly available, it tastes better and serves as an excellent excuse to leave your desk for a couple of minutes during the work day.
