assignment 4

In order to help Laura have a healthier pregnancy Heather can encourage that she quit smoking. If not forever, at least while she is carrying her child. Heather could also suggest to discontinue any drinking during the pregnancy. Maybe Heather could hang out with Laura and give her a different social option instead of drinking. Heather should let Laura know that regular exercise is healthy for her and the baby. Heather could suggest yoga or aerobics classes specifically tailored to pregnant women or even enroll in a class with Laura to give her the extra motivation to get the regular exercise needed. With Heather’s guidance Laura can change her bad habits and have a healthy pregnancy and child.

I like that you suggested in your post for Laura to do yoga or aerobics classes. Since exercise classes like these can be tailored for pregnant women, there wouldn't be extra stress on the baby from overly intense exercising. Awesome suggestion.
