Pregnancy safety- Fitness
Is it safe to diet during pregnancy?
It is not recommended – pregnancy is not the time to diet. Normally, you should gain about 25 to 35 pounds during pregnancy.
Focus on eating well rather than reducing calories. It's good for you and your baby.

Pregnancy safety- Beauty and style
Is it safe to dye my hair during pregnancy?
There are no reports of hair dye causing changes in human pregnancies. Very little hair dye chemical is actually absorbed into your system.
