Here are some of the do's and don'ts of pregnant women: 1. Do have a regular prenatal check- up. 2. Don't smoke, drink alcohol and take street drugs. 3. Do take your prenatal vitamin everyday. 4. Follow your caregiver's advice about taking medications. 5. Don't be afraid to ask your caregiver or healthcare professional questions you have about your health, your pregnancy, or your baby. 6. Try to stay away from toxic chemicals, like pesticides and some cleaning agents. 7. Do keep a healthy lifestyle by eating healthy foods, exercising regularly, and wearing a seatbelt. 8. Do get enough sleep and rest and try to reduce stress. 9. Don't take too much caffeine. Caffeine reduces calcium and water in your body, raises stress hormones, and can change your baby's heart rate. Do limit caffeine consumption to 1-2 cups a day. 10. Do create a birth plan describing your wishes, concerns, and how you'd like to be cared for during labor and birth.

Potentially, yes. If a woman is still menstruating then she still has viable eggs, although a woman may have a harder time getting pregnant so late in her reproductive life it is still possible. During menstruation pregnancy risks are lower because a woman will not ovulate during menstruation, although if a woman has a short menstrual cycle it is possible for there to be fertile quality cervical mucus present during menstruation. This mucus protects the sperm from the acidic pH of the vagina so it can survive for up to 7 days within the vagina, by which time menstruation may have ended and the woman may have ovulated.
