Problem: Article: It's nearly impossible to completely protect yourself against infections. Nonetheless, vaginal infections can lead to early birth, so you should do what you can to prevent this issue.  Stay clean by showering or bathing daily. However, skip beauty products that might irritate your vaginal area, such as bubble baths or feminine sprays. Also, skip douching. Douching tends to change the levels of bacteria in your vaginal area, which can let the bad ones take over.  Keep the area breathable. Skip clothing that is too tight, as that can make you hotter down there. Instead, wear breathable fabrics such as cotton, and keep it loose.  Practice safe sex. If you or your partner is having sex with other people, use barriers when having sex. Researchers aren't clear why there is a connection between sex and infections; however, they are sure there is a connection. Also, practicing safe sex will protect you and the baby from sexually transmitted diseases.  Skip tampons completely while pregnant. When using pads, use unscented ones without dyes. Women who don't gain the recommend weight during pregnancy are at a higher risk for early births. How much you should gain depends entirely on your weight before pregnancy, though doctors sometimes make recommendations based on your body mass index, a measurement of your height versus your weight.  If you're underweight to begin with (with a BMI less than 18.5), you should gain 28 to 40 pounds. If you're of average weight (with a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9), you should gain 25 to 35 pounds. If you're in the overweight category (25 to 29.9), you can gain 15 to 25 pounds. Finally, if you're above a BMI of 30, you can gain 11 to 20 pounds.  Nutrition is also important. Make sure you are eating a balanced diet that includes protein, fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy, and whole grains. Ask your doctor for a more comprehensive list if you are unsure about what you should eat. Smoking can increase the risk of your baby being born early. In addition, smoking may cause your baby to be underweight at birth because the chemicals from smoking may block some of the oxygen your baby needs. Secondhand smoking can be equally as harmful, so ask your partner to quit if he or she is the smoker. Alcohol also increases your risk of having your baby early. Also, you up your chances of having a stillborn baby if you drink while pregnant. If you carry your baby to term, she may still have problems due to your alcohol use, such as fetal alcohol syndrome, which can cause deformities and disabilities in your baby. Abusing illegal drugs, such as cocaine, can lead to an early delivery. You should avoid illegal drugs anyway, because they can affect the health of your baby, and always talk to your doctor before starting on any medication, even over-the-counter medications or natural supplements. Although you can't avoid stress altogether, you can skip situations where you know you will be stressed out. In addition, when you find yourself in a stressful situation you have no control over, learn to practice techniques to de-stress yourself.  Try deep breathing. Close your eyes. Focus completely on your breathing. Take a deep breath in, counting to four. Breath out, counting to four. Keep focusing on your breathing until you feel yourself calm down. Use visualization. With this technique, you take a journey with your senses. Imagine yourself some place you're happy and relaxed, such as the mountains. Think about the smell of the pines, the cool air on your skin, and the sounds of the birds. Imagine as many details as you can. Having pregnancies too close together can increase your chances of giving birth too early. Your body needs time to rest and recover. It's best to wait a year and a half after your last birth before trying to get pregnant again.
Summary: Lower your chance of vaginal infections. Gain the recommended weight. Stop smoking. Stop drinking alcohol. Avoid drug use. Avoid stress. Wait between pregnancies.

Your kit should include food and water for a couple days, a radio, batteries, first aid supplies, and a flashlight. Your kit will not only provide you with items you may need during and after a tsunami event, but it will give you piece of mind while you are evacuating. Perhaps the most important part of preparing for a tsunami is creating evacuation routes to high points inland. By plotting several different evacuation routes, you'll limit the amount of time you may have to waste figuring out where to go during a tsunami. Create plans that will take you from:  Work to a safe zone. Home to a safe zone. Likely places you may be in your community to a safe zone. Take the time to drive or walk the route several times in advance. Look for alternative ways to cross rivers, streets, or get around major buildings. By familiarizing yourself with your evacuation route, you'll be much more likely to be able to avoid dangers like downed power lines or damaged bridges. A contact plan will let you know how and when to communicate with friends or family after you have evacuated. You should also include a place to meet friends and family after authorities have signaled an all clear.  Choose a location that is easily accessible and in a safety zone. Possible locations include a friend's house, a public park, or a landmark. Make sure you include a timeline for communication in your plan. For example, have a first contact time (maybe 1 to 3 hours after the event), a second contact point (6 to 12 hours after), and a third contact point (a day after the event).
