How Pregnancy Changes Body Discomforts: First of all, it is necessary to say that not all women suffer discomfort during pregnancy, in fact some do not even notice that they are pregnant until their clothes fit.

The good news is that they can be largely prevented with healthy eating, rest, exercise, baths, and home remedies. Let’s talk about five of them:
