Pregnancy is a hard work, there are many things to pay attention to, and what sleeping position to maintain is a controversial topic, after all, the "incorrect" sleeping position is likely to cause hypoxia in the fetus. Many people think that lying on the side is good for the fetus, especially when is in the third trimester. They don't know that blindly "following the trend" will harm the child. Listen to the advice of the obstetrician.
Xiao Li was pregnant for 32 weeks. Before, she deliberately kept sleeping on her left side every day, but in the third trimester, she could feel the fetus's "dissatisfaction" when she lay on her side every day. She hurried to the hospital out of fear. Let her suddenly realize. The doctor said: "Although lying on the left side is the most suitable sleeping position for the third trimester, it is not for all pregnant women. Some pregnant mothers are not suitable for this sleeping position. The developmental status of the fetus is different. Tired, there will be different degrees of fetal movement.”
It can be seen that sleeping on the left side in the third trimester is not necessarily the best choice. Pregnant mothers must find a sleeping position that suits them and their baby, don’t insist blindly, and provide comfort for the child The growth environment is the most important.
Why is the best sleeping position lying on the left side?
This is related to the body structure of pregnant mothers, because most women’s uterus is right-handed, and the weight of the body lying on the right side for a long time is pressed on the right half of the body, which will increase the burden on the uterus and put the fetus under tension. The sleeping position on the left side will not cause pressure on the uterus, and the fetus is less disturbed and can develop better. It is also good for pregnant mothers. It can promote blood circulation and reduce swelling. If the fetal position is not correct, this sleeping position can be adjusted.
The best sleeping position for a small number of girls is lying on the right side.
is as mentioned above. Most girls have a right-handed uterus, and a small number of girls have a left-handed uterus. If the latter is always left Sleeping on your side may cause the baby to lack oxygen.
always sleeps on the left side, it will also compress the heart. After a long time, you will suffer from cardiovascular disease. Pregnant mothers must fully understand their bodies and choose a suitable sleeping position.
Poor sleep habits will also affect the fetus
In life, many people have unhealthy sleep habits. These are not a major problem in normal times, but pregnant women must correct them, otherwise it will affect the development of the fetus. Some pregnant mothers have the habit of sleeping with their heads covered, but the air in the quilt does not circulate and the temperature is high, the fetus will be hypoxic, and the pregnant mother will not breathe smoothly. Sleeping on the stomach is also a habit that some people develop since childhood, but it is not advisable for pregnant mothers because it will press the fetus in the stomach. The most common sleeping position on the back should not be maintained for a long time, which will slow down the blood circulation, which is not good for the pregnant mother and the fetus.
Choose the most suitable sleeping position for the fetus according to the actual situation.
There is no specific sleeping position in the third trimester of pregnancy. Just choose a posture that is comfortable for yourself and the fetus will not "strongly resist". Generally speaking, the left and right side lying alternately is the best choice, so that the body will not become rigid because of keeping the same posture for too long, nor will the fetus stay in the same environment for a long time. In this process, pregnant mothers must always pay attention to the changes in fetal movement, adjust the sleeping position with the baby, and fall asleep as soon as possible.
There are many trivial things during pregnancy. Don't hurt the fetus because of your negligence. Parents and mothers must seriously and responsibly prepare for the arrival of the baby.
