The University of Virginia Medical Center offers these suggestions for asthmatic women who are pregnant:
- Avoid anything that triggers asthma symptoms, such as tobacco smoke or pet dander.
- As prescribed by your doctor, keep taking your asthma medications throughout your pregnancy.
- Keep exercise moderate. If you have exercise-induced asthma, use your asthma medication. Check with your doctor before starting an exercise regimen.
- If you are in the second or third trimester during flu season, make sure you get a flu shot.
