As the saying goes: "Water is the source of life" and water is essential to the human body For one thing, after a woman becomes pregnant, it becomes more important.
But in real life, some people don’t like drinking water, or even find the water difficult to drink. Even after pregnancy, it doesn’t change. You still need to be hydrated during pregnancy, even if you don’t feel thirsty. The fetus will also remind the pregnant mother to drink water in its own way.
Case:
Lili still insisted on working at her post after pregnancy, but in the past few months, colleagues found that she went to the bathroom more frequently, so she asked She was embarrassed to tell the reason, and said she drank too much water.
For this matter, the colleagues are purely caring questions, but Lily has no idea but put it in her heart. She is afraid that others will look strange again, so she reduces the frequency of going to the toilet by controlling the amount of water. As a result, serious constipation problems appeared within a month.
Pregnant women have these 4 conditions, it is the fetus reminding you to "drink water"
1, constipation
After a woman is pregnant, hormones in the body will occur. Some changes lead to the decrease of gastrointestinal strength, which leads to weakened intestinal peristalsis, which is prone to constipation. If the pregnant mother is not willing to drink water during pregnancy, it is likely to cause insufficient water in the body , Making bowel movements more difficult.
Because supplementing water in time during pregnancy can not only accelerate the body's metabolism, but also effectively avoid the occurrence of constipation.
2. Dry lips and tongue
Pregnant mothers often feel dry lips and tongue during pregnancy, which is actually a signal sent by the fetus, because lack of water in the body will cause the human body Feeling thirsty, especially in summer, when the temperature is higher, it will accelerate the evaporation of water in the body.
Therefore, pregnant mothers must be hydrated in time during pregnancy, and must not deliberately refrain from drinking water because they want to reduce the frequency of going to the toilet. They must develop good eating habits and do not wait until they feel thirsty to drink water. .
3, Shanghuo
During pregnancy, some pregnant mothers will be more delicious and heavier. They like to eat something with heavy taste and drink less water, so they are likely to be The phenomenon of getting angry, such as dry and sore throat, blistering in the mouth, etc.
Therefore, if the expectant mother's taste is heavier during pregnancy, she needs to drink plenty of water to avoid harm and harm her and her fetus' health.
4. Feeling of collapse
According to statistics, the human body's moisture accounts for about 70% of the whole body. If there is insufficient water in the human body, the oxygen content of the blood in the body will decrease, which will cause hypoxia in the muscles and make people feel collapsed.
and pregnant mothers have a baby in their belly, and the water needed is huge. If the pregnant mother does not replenish enough water in time, it will cause the expectant mother to become exhausted.
The fetus reminds pregnant mother to drink water, what are the harms?
The fetus reminds the pregnant mother to drink water. The most direct manifestation is that the amount of amniotic fluid is insufficient. Amniotic fluid is the water of life for the fetus and maintains the environment for the baby to live. If the content is too small, it is bound to be Affect its growth and development.
According to the statistical survey, the incidence of oligohydramnios during pregnancy is 0.5%~5.5%. The damage to the fetus is as follows:
1, dysplasia
Too little amniotic fluid is likely to lead to impaired placental function, resulting in malnutrition, fetal hypoxia, growth retardation, etc., resulting in poor fetal development, and even affecting intelligence or growth defect.
2, growth restriction
too little amniotic fluid will limit the range of movement of the fetus, and the protection will also decrease, which will restrict the growth and development of the fetus, or even prolong it The time of pregnancy endangers the life safety of pregnant women and fetuses.
3. Increasing the chance of a Caesarean section
Oligohydramnios can easily lead to fetal distress, umbilical cord around the neck, amniotic fluid and fecal stains, etc., then this will invisibly increase the occurrence of Caesarean section probability.
How to properly hydrate during pregnancy?
1. Supplement enough water
Under normal circumstances, the human body needs to replenish 1500 ml of water every day, but it is not accurate for pregnant women, after all, there is more in the abdomen A little baby also has an increase in blood in his body, so he needs to add about 1800 ml of water every day.
2. Choose the right way of hydrating
