I don’t know if all pregnant mothers wear thick clothes or still feel the temperature is very hot in the season when the temperature is declining.
A pregnant mother said in the group today: Now that the temperature is declining, I am arguing with the heat every day, has to open the window at night to sleep, but I still wake up from the heat.
After pregnancy, women seem to become more sensitive to temperature , sometimes very afraid of heat, sometimes very cold, then what is going on?
Pregnant women often feel cold in the early stages of pregnancy
Mothers who have given birth to children know that are particularly afraid of cold during the early stages of pregnancy , if the early pregnancy is in the autumn and winter seasons, it is even more difficult. So why is pregnant mother afraid of cold? Is pregnancy too squeamish?
1) Body temperature changes after pregnancy
In the early stages of pregnancy, the pregnant mother's body temperature quietly changed, which was about 0.3-0.5 degrees Celsius higher than that of ordinary people.
's body temperature rises because the progesterone secreted by the corpus luteum will increase the body temperature. As the basal body temperature rises, the hypothalamus will be more sensitive to temperature and it is also very sensitive to changes in temperature.
Naturally, when the weather changes slightly, there will be fear of cold.
When you come to the early stage of pregnancy, the placenta is gradually developed, and the pregnant woman will have an increase in blood volume, which will cause the body to become warm. The pregnant mother's body temperature will become normal, and she will no longer be afraid of cold.
2) Pregnant women have poor physical fitness.
Generally speaking, the biggest factor for pregnant women to be afraid of cold in the early stages of pregnancy is the change in the hormone levels in the body, which leads to , and those pregnant women who are afraid of cold in the first trimester often have insufficient blood. Pregnant women like
have relatively poor physical fitness. Coupled with early pregnancy reactions, especially pregnant women with severe morning sickness, the body’s resistance will also decrease, and naturally there will be cold fears.
3) Hypothyroidism
There is another reason that pregnant women are afraid of cold, which is hypothyroidism . Hypothyroidism will lead to endocrine disorders, low metabolism, and naturally feel cold.
Hypothyroidism not only affects the physical condition of the pregnant mother, but also hinders the fetus's physical development and brain development. The
research shows that: during pregnancy, hypothyroidism occurs, and the intelligence and athletic ability of children after birth will be significantly lower than children with normal hormone levels during pregnancy.
Warm reminder: If you are in the first trimester of pregnancy, if you are afraid of cold, you should keep warm, strengthen nutrition, and take more rest.
In the third trimester of pregnancy, why are pregnant mothers afraid of heat?
Pregnant women are afraid of heat in the third trimester. The main reasons are as follows:
1. After the early pregnancy reaction is over, the pregnant mother’s appetite will improve a lot. If consumes more, it will naturally provide the body with more energy. Therefore, pregnant mothers are not afraid of cold and heat;
2. In addition, the blood volume of pregnant mothers in the middle and late stages of pregnancy will be about 40% higher than before , blood flow will generate heat, and naturally they are more likely to be afraid of heat.
3. In the middle and late stages of pregnancy, the pregnant mother must secrete more hormones to promote the development of the fetus. At this time, the body temperature will be affected by the hormones and will rise more than usual. Therefore, it will be easier to feel hot;
4. , Z4z fetus has developed and formed, and it will also produce heat in the mother's body , mother's belly is like holding a "small stove", naturally it will feel warm all day.
Warm reminder: The resistance of pregnant women in the later stages of pregnancy tends to decline. Therefore, pregnant mothers should not be greedy for cold for a while, but also pay attention to keep warm, so as not to get sick due to cold, which affects their own health and fetal development. Z2z

Determine fetal genderThere are thousands of kinds of sayings, but there is a saying online: pregnant mothers in the third trimester are afraid of heat, which is a sign of giving birth to a boy. In fact, this is not reliable!
