 Stay on top of breast and cervical cancer screenings.  If you're pregnant, start prenatal care early.  Share your family health history with your doctor.  Most importantly, listen to your body - and get care when you need it.
 With all your do, it can be easy to put your needs last, which can leave you feeling drained, stressed, or depressed.  Sleeping and eating well and connecting with others is important - and if you're struggling, ask for help.
