Stay Fierce, but Comfortable - Between jet-setting around the world to promote her new album, filming music videos and rocking the fiercest fashions, Beyoncé has proven that pregnancy can be the best accessory. If you’re a hardworking mommy-to-be like Bey, there are ways to make sure you and baby stay healthy, even if your world moves a mile a minute.Bey and other pregnant celebrities are often photographed wearing a killer set of heels, but babycenter.com recommends against it because "your weight increases and your body shape and center of gravity change, making you walk differently (and less steadily)."

Divine Design - There are countless options in maternity wear that prove dressing for two can be anything but dowdy. Take a cue from Beyoncé and mix color and texture to create your own look.

Keep Morning Sickness at Bay - Beyoncé has said that her sense of smell is heightened now that she is with child. The Mayo Clinic suggests avoiding scents that could trigger nausea, like the smell of the double latte you craved every morning before pregnancy. Keep a stash of crackers and other bland foods on hand and snack when you feel nauseated. Ginger ale or tea may help, too. (Photo: Jemal Countess/Getty Images)

Drink Up - Dehydration can make nausea worse, so be sure to drink plenty of fluids. A water canteen kept at your desk or in your purse can make it easier to remember to drink up. (Photo: Dave Hogan/Getty Images)

Fuel Your Body - If you’re on the go, it’s likely that you’ll feel tired very easily. Fatigue can be a symptom of iron deficiency anemia, but adjusting your diet can help, according to The Mayo Clinic. Eating foods that are rich in iron and protein like poultry, seafood, red meat, leafy green vegetables, iron-fortified whole-grain cereal and beans can help give you the energy you need.
