Discipline to prevent colds 1
The common cold and influenza are both respiratory infections caused by viruses. Although the common cold has little impact on the fetus, if the body temperature remains around 39 for a long time, it may also cause fetal malformations. Especially for influenza, not only can the virus deform the embryo or fetus, but the high fever and toxicity of the virus can stimulate uterine contractions and lead to miscarriage. Therefore, you should especially avoid going to public places during the first trimester, especially in the cold season, and avoid contact with cold patients in your daily life.
Commandment 2: Don’t take medicine randomly
If you have colds, headaches, insomnia and other discomforts between 30 and 40 days of pregnancy, do not take medicine indiscriminately. This is when embryonic tissue is most sensitive to drugs. The newly formed embryo is very immature and can easily be damaged by some drugs, leading to malformation or miscarriage. Do not use aspirin and other antipyretics when you have a fever. Be sure to see a doctor in time and tell the doctor the time of pregnancy so that the doctor can choose drugs that are effective and will not cause harm to the fetus.
Discipline 3 prohibits abdominal X-ray examination
In the early stages of pregnancy, especially between 15 and 56 days of gestation, the embryonic organs are in the process of highly differentiated formation. Once X-rays are taken, especially on the abdomen, there is a high possibility of embryonic malformations and developmental defects such as microcephaly, dementia, cerebral edema, and microphthalmia. Therefore, X-ray exposure is absolutely prohibited during the first 2 months of pregnancy. In addition, routine lung fluoroscopy during pregnancy can be postponed until after 4 months of pregnancy, and pelvic X-ray examination should also be avoided in the first trimester, preferably around 36 weeks of pregnancy.
Discipline 4: Bathing time should not be too long
Morning sickness that occurs in early pregnancy usually makes the pregnant woman\’s body even weaker. Taking a bath for too long can easily make the body overtired, causing dizziness, fainting in the bathroom, or catching a cold due to body cold. Especially if the sitz bath time is too long, it will cause uterine congestion, stimulate uterine muscle contraction, and cause miscarriage.
Discipline 5: Don’t wear strong perfume
Strong-scented perfumes contain some artificial flavors, which can easily irritate the respiratory tract and skin nervous system of pregnant women, causing allergic reactions such as skin itching, dizziness, coughing, and even headaches. Pregnant women in early pregnancy are very sensitive. In addition, strong perfume can also make the fetus prone to symptoms such as diarrhea and ear infections after birth. Therefore, it is best to avoid using such perfumes during pregnancy.
