Checklist: 8 Ways to Stress Less at Work During Pregnancy

Try these practical tips to get through each day of your pregnancy.

___ Schedule meetings and important phone calls when you feel most alert — whether you’re a morning person or an after-lunch-energy-boost kinda gal.

___ Make doctors’ appointments first thing in the morning or in the early evening so they dont carve too much out of your workday. All that back-and-forthing can add unnecessary anxiety.

___ Rest and recharge during your lunch break. If you can, close your office door and rest at your desk or head out for an invigorating stroll. Amazing what a burst of sunshine can do for your mood, right?

It is true that hair dyes contain lots of chemicals in them, although no direct link has been found to childhood cancers or, for that matter, birth defects. This has been suggested by MD Richard Beigi who is the assistant professor of obstetrics, reproductive sciences and gynecology at the Medical Center of the University of Pittsburg.
