Eat foods that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. They are responsible for the healthy development of your baby’s brain and eyes. Eating fatty sea fish (halibut, salmon, herring and sardines) or taking fish oil will have a beneficial effect on your child’s health. It’s not always possible to eat fresh fish, so talk to your physician about supplementation that contains suitable doses of omega-3 fatty acids.

Have you started on the process of picking your baby’s name? Or maybe names because you may not know your baby’s gender yet. It’s not unreasonable to start tossing some names around in your head already. A lot of parents hold off with choosing the name until the gender is confirmed, and some even don’t make the final decision until the baby is born.

The name is quite an important issue, so it’s worth giving yourself more time to think about it. If you and your partner draw up a list of potential names for a boy or a girl now, you’ll have more time to discuss the issue and make the final choice.
