Are you pregnant? Pregnancy can make it harder for your body to stay cool, so it’s easier to get sick from the heat. On hot days, drink plenty of water, stay in cool or shaded places, take breaks, and avoid overdoing it. Ask your doctor about safely replacing salt and minerals lost through sweating, and keep an eye on local heat alerts. If you notice any signs of heat‑related illness, get medical care right away.
