Your child is becoming a young adult now. It can be uncomfortable to discuss reproductive health with them, but it’s an essential part of their overall well-being.

For a healthy pregnancy, one of the best things you can do may be the last thing you actually feel like doing as your little one grows inside of you: exercise.

Pregnancy comes with tons of advice. Take these supplements, not those. Exercise, but only so much. Get these tests, but not those screenings.

You’ve got a lot to smile about with a baby on the way. But that pregnancy can sometimes be hard on your pearly whites—and your baby, as a result.
