In the common imagination when we think of a pregnant woman, an expectant mother, we often associate the thought with the female figure with her pelvis shifted forward, her belly prominent and her hands resting on her lower back as an aid to her back.

Pregnancy is an extraordinary time in a woman's life. Everything changes, daily rhythms, diet, perception of things, and even the body is affected by absolutely natural physiological changes that affect the health of the mother-to-be and that of the baby she is carrying. And of course dental health is not excluded!

When one speaks of baby care and hygiene, one always and primarily thinks of bathing, caring for the baby's delicate skin and first hair, and of body parts such as the ears and nose, which must always be kept free and clean.

When it's cold, we mustn't let ourselves be discouraged or caught up in laziness, or even worse, get stuck indoors for fear of 'catching the flu'... So green light for daily outings with a pram or pushchair, as long as we choose the right times, places and clothing for being outdoors.
