From the blog: “Pregnancy is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and memorable experiences of a woman’s life. It is also a period that’s fraught with risks and every woman needs to be on their guard to ensure that no harm comes to their baby. Their immune system is considerably weakened when they are pregnant because it has the added responsibility of protecting a developing baby. This means that a pregnant woman is more susceptible to germs, viruses and bacteria that can lead to food poisoning. This doesn’t mean that your food is literally poisoned, it just makes you sick so you suffer from diarrhea and vomiting. Some women also experience chills and temperature and feel quite unwell."
