There are many things that need to be paid attention to during pregnancy. Many of the actions that women often do during pregnancy may be detrimental to the development of the fetus.
However, many pregnant mothers may still do it because they are not clear about the disadvantages of these actions. My best friend Xiaoyu recently told me about her own personal experience.
Xiaoyu went for a prenatal check-up when she was just three months pregnant. Because she often crossed her legs before becoming pregnant, she felt that it was not uncomfortable to cross her legs after pregnancy, so she sat like that during the check-up.
But unexpectedly, when the doctor saw her sitting like this, he asked her to put her legs down very seriously.
When my best friend was still wondering, the doctor told her that if a pregnant woman sits with her legs crossed like this, there won’t be much of a problem when she first became pregnant, but as time goes by, it will become more difficult to give birth and may even require a caesarean section. Only in this way can the baby be born smoothly.
Xiaoyu quickly adjusted her sitting posture when she heard this. She would never dare to cross her legs again, and also told people around her not to cross their legs.
In fact, there are many movements that are detrimental to the development of the baby during pregnancy, and crossing one's legs is just one of them. Each of the following types, if done regularly during pregnancy, will have a certain impact on the health of the fetus and the pregnant mother. If the pregnant mother is still doing it, she should change it as soon as possible.
In addition to crossing one's legs during pregnancy, for the health of the fetus, these movements should also be avoided
★Squatting
The fetus is very fragile. If a pregnant mother is not careful, it may cause problems with the baby's development. Some pregnant mothers may If you don't pay attention during pregnancy, you still squat down frequently or suddenly stand up. It may not seem to have much impact, but in fact, the harm to your baby cannot be underestimated.
Because sudden squatting or standing up will bring a lot of burden to the body, the pregnant mother's waist will feel uncomfortable. Not only is it easy to hurt her waist, but it is also easy to compress the baby. In serious cases, it will also affect the baby's development and make the baby in a dangerous situation.
★Sedentary
Many pregnant mothers have difficulty moving during pregnancy and may sit almost all day. This will lead to poor circulation and swelling of the lower body, affecting the development of the fetus and the mother's own health.
In addition to sitting for a long time, standing for a long time also has a negative impact on the fetus. If pregnant mothers have been sitting for a long time, they can stand for a few minutes to relieve themselves, but do not stand often, otherwise the leg muscles will be too tense and prone to edema.
★Lying all the time
During pregnancy, mothers often feel tired, so lying down is the norm, and many pregnant mothers also like to lie down to relax themselves, but in fact, this lying method will make childbirth more difficult.
Because if a pregnant mother lies in such a position, the baby's head will be directed towards the pregnant woman's spine, which is not conducive to normal delivery. Over time, it will be difficult for the baby to enter the basin, making it even more difficult for a normal delivery.
★ Cross your legs
Whether before or after pregnancy, many people like to cross their legs very much. There are many disadvantages of crossing the legs. Not only is it detrimental to the shape of the legs, but it is also easy to compress the fetus. Crossing the legs will slow down the blood circulation and make the waist pain of the pregnant mother more severe.
If you keep crossing your legs, the pregnant mother's spine will easily shift, and the fetus may even be in danger of hypoxia. Therefore, if pregnant mothers have this habit, they must change it in time.
★ Bending over
Some pregnant mothers may feel bored during pregnancy, or in order to share housework with their family, they cannot help but lift things or do some strenuous movements, such as bending down.
However, expectant mothers should try not to bend over after pregnancy, especially during the period before delivery. Pregnant mothers should avoid doing such actions.
Because bending over will put a lot of pressure on the waist, if you bend down too hard, it can easily damage the muscles. If you accidentally press on the stomach, it can easily lead to miscarriage.
★ Tiptoe
Many pregnant mothers pick up or carry things by themselves even during pregnancy because they don’t want to trouble others. When picking things up on tiptoe, the pregnant mother is likely to pull on the abdomen, and the abdomen will feel pain after receiving a certain impact. , it can also seriously harm the fetus.
Moreover, standing on tiptoes is easy to fall, and reaching for things is just as dangerous as standing on tiptoes, so pregnant mothers should avoid doing these two actions.
★Driving
Pregnant mothers may still drive during pregnancy for the convenience of traveling. However, during pregnancy, mothers are more emotionally sensitive, and the environment is noisy with many people outside. Driving requires both hands and feet, and pregnant mothers have difficulty moving, which is very difficult. A collision situation may occur.
Moreover, pregnant women are easily tired and have difficulty concentrating, which is very unsafe. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to drive out. If the bumps are serious, it will affect the development of the fetus.
If you want your baby to be healthier, learn these three actions.
If you want your baby to be born healthy and reduce the difficulty of natural delivery, pregnant mothers can do these actions on a daily basis:
The first action: take the stairs.
Taking the stairs can exercise the leg muscles and speed up the body's circulation. It also strengthens the pelvic ligaments and can also reduce the difficulty of the fetus entering the pelvis.
Although climbing stairs has certain benefits, it is prone to dangerous situations such as falling. Therefore, if pregnant mothers take the stairs, they must be accompanied by family members, pay attention to controlling speed and breathing, and avoid doing strenuous exercise.
The second action: walking
Appropriate activities during pregnancy can promote fetal development and make pregnant mothers healthier. As a very gentle exercise, walking is very suitable for mothers in the early stages of pregnancy and expectant mothers in the third trimester.
Slow down your walking speed and perform aerobic respiration at the same time, which will allow the baby to breathe fresher oxygen and promote detoxification of the body, so the baby will develop faster and better.
There are many actions that you need to pay attention to during pregnancy. Mothers must avoid the above actions if they are harmful to the fetus.
Pregnant mothers should also pay more attention when traveling and try to stay away from rough ground and places prone to bumps and bumps. In addition to paying attention to the above postures, the sleeping posture of pregnant mothers is also very important during pregnancy.
Pregnant mothers should try not to sleep in the same position, but should change several sleeping positions at night. Otherwise, maintaining the same sleeping position for a long time may oppress the body and cause poor blood circulation. If pregnant mothers find it difficult to turn over on their own, they can ask the expectant father to help them turn over.
Some pregnant mothers believe that sleeping on the left side is good for the development of the fetus and will continue to use this method. However, if the pregnant mother continues to force herself to maintain this sleeping position, it will also be detrimental to the growth of the fetus.
Therefore, pregnant mothers can try to sleep on the left side as much as possible during pregnancy, but if they feel uncomfortable, they must pay attention to adjusting the sleeping position, so that the baby and you can sleep comfortably, and the fetal development will be healthier.
