Vaginal bleeding at any time during pregnancy should be reported to the physician. Leg cramps, pelvic discomfort, and urinary frequency are common discomforts of pregnancy and not a cause for immediate concern.

Answer to Question 2

A pregnant woman should eat foods containing roughage, such as raw fruits, vegetables, and cereals with bran.
