Now that Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi has had time to settle in with her new role of mommy, she is ready to become a mentor. With the world’s eyes set on Kate Middleton, Polizzi proposes a few words of advice to the Duchess about becoming a new mom. “It’s hard, but don’t stress out. Enjoy your pregnancy and be excited,” the Jersey Shore star told the New York Daily News. Now that the Duchess, 30, has been released from the hospital after being treated for hyperemesis gravidarum, Polizzi encourages her to relax more when out of the spotlight. “Enjoy your time at home — or the castle, in her case — with the baby, especially the first few months.” Pregnancy is definitely not easy. Even so, Polizzi knows from experience, it will be worth it in the end. “You’ll get to know him/her, keep them safe and fall more in love each day.”

Regardless of your busy schedule, always make sure to eat healthy and often. A good way to help with this is to have snacks at work and carry some with you just in case there’s no time for a full sit-down meal.
3. Exercise in moderation: While it is very important to stay active during your pregnancy, your exercise routine may need to change a bit.
