Lawatan Kumpulan AKSI Klinik Kesihatan Apin-Apin ke Maternity Wad dan Dewan Bersalin Hospital Keningau - 24 November 2011

Afternoon,

Hari ini saya telah menyertai lawatan kumpulan aksi KK Apin-apin sebagai pendedahan kepada mereka terhadap kepentingan dalam menyokong penyusuan susu ibu dengan memainkan peranan masing-masing.

Semua aksi telah diberi peluang untuk mempraktikkan teori yang telah dipelajari semasa kursus yang telah dijalankan beberapa minggu yang lepas.

Maklumbalas yang diterima dari aksi, mereka merasakan lawatan ini sangat berguna dan memberi manfaat kepada mereka semua.

Aksi KKIA Keningau pula merancang untuk membuat lawatan yang sama pada 2 dis 2011 nanti. Semoga ianyanya juga berjaya di laksanakan.

Driving with pregnancy





Preganant women who have to drive to work should observe some precautions, some of which are life-saving tips for the mothers-to-be and their unborn children.

Below are some ways to make the most of the situation as highlighted by Britain's driver training specialist IAM Drive & Survive.

> Protect your baby and belt up – your seat belt is the only thing stopping you from flying forward and hitting your abdomen on the steering wheel.

Wear the lap strap below your bump, as low as possible, from hip-bone to hip-bone. Keep the diagonal strap between your breasts, moving the strap around the side of your bump.

You can move the seat back, as long as you adjust your mirrors accordingly and can reach the brake, accelerator and clutch. You can buy after-market pedal extenders for this purpose. Being an extra 8cm away from the steering wheel makes a lot of difference in an accident.

> If your employer doesn’t offer to do so, ask them to carry out a full risk assessment for your driving activity.

Make your contacts/customers aware of your pregnancy. Most people are tolerant and this will enable you to take the necessary extra care and time when you need it.

> Plan for breaks on journeys (long and short) - check where you can do so safely in advance. Cramps in your legs are more likely when stuck in heavy traffic, so plan your journeys to avoid this or make sure you can take a break.

> Don’t drive if you know that your condition means you cannot control your vehicle effectively. You must be in control of your vehicle to drive legally.
