Need advice on first time pregnancy

Hello, My wife is 9 weeks pregnant. This is our first one after 3 years of trying. We are excited about it. I need advice on the do’s and don’t on this first trimester. Right now she’s taking multivitamins(includes folic acid) after lunch and prenatal milk(Anmum Materna) after dinner. Is there anymore supplements that she needs to take? During sleep, is it okay to lie on your stomach? Is there any preferred position? As this is our first baby, we are quite lost on what to do. Need some advice on this first trimester. #Needadvice #firsttimemom #firsttimedad

usually hospitals will give 2 types of supplements (obimin & DHA fish oil) as of first & early second trimester it's ok to lie on your back or even stomach. once the belly/baby grows bigger (3rd trimester) it's best to lie on your side so that the baby could breathe easily. also if you're having heartburn, lie on the left side. right side if you're feeling breathless. prevent from laying on the back (3rd trimester)
