A large amount of obstetric statistics and survey data show that various abnormalities during pregnancy and delivery (miscarriage, premature delivery, dystocia, etc.) are largely caused by pregnant women neglecting self-care. In a sense, this is their own \”mistake\”. To sum up, there are 19 common types as follows:
1. Suspected pregnancy was not checked in time
Many pregnant women don’t take it seriously when they start experiencing some early pregnancy symptoms. They neither told their relatives in time nor took the initiative to go to the hospital for examination. The delay lasts a month or two.
As a result, when the pregnancy is confirmed, most of them are more than three months pregnant and have passed the risk period of teratogenesis and miscarriage. Ignoring early pregnancy health care is extremely harmful to the health of pregnant women. Mother and child, it may even lead to serious consequences.
2. After confirming pregnancy, no prenatal check-up will be arranged
At present, there are still a considerable number of pregnant women (mostly in rural areas) who do not go for prenatal check-ups or do not go for prenatal check-ups on time due to shyness or troublesome reasons. one of the reasons.
3. Drug abuse during pregnancy
During pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, drug abuse without medical advice, especially some antibiotics, hormones, analgesics, sedatives and sleeping pills, is an important factor causing teratogenesis.
4. Don’t take medicine when you are sick, for fear of affecting the fetus
You can\’t abuse drugs during pregnancy, but that doesn\’t mean you can\’t use them. Most medications are safe for the fetus. Therefore, if you fall ill during pregnancy, you should take medication correctly under the guidance of a doctor.
5. Not paying attention to preventing and treating viral infections such as rubella
Rubella, hepatitis and cytomegalovirus can seriously damage embryonic tissue and cause teratogenesis and miscarriage. Therefore, pregnant women cannot ignore the above viral infections and should actively prevent them. Once you are found to have rubella, viral hepatitis, etc., you should seek medical treatment immediately and take it seriously and never be careless. Rubella virus is the number one killer of teratogenic births.
6. Contact with harmful substances, repeated B-ultrasound examination
Pregnancy, especially early pregnancy, is a critical period for the differentiation and formation of fetal vital organs. Care should be taken to avoid and prevent contact with toxic and harmful substances, such as chemical pesticides, heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, methylmercury, and radioactive substances. Therefore, pregnant women should strengthen their prevention of the above substances. And do not perform B-ultrasound or X-ray examination multiple times to avoid harming the fetus.
7. Addiction to tobacco and alcohol
Pregnant women who smoke a lot or drink alcohol can cause fetal malformations. Therefore, you should quit smoking and drinking during pregnancy.
8. Overly dependent on or demanding from husband
A small number of pregnant women do not have a clear understanding of pregnancy and are afraid to take the lead, so they do nothing. They let their husbands do all the housework and require their husbands to be obedient to them. This excessive dependence greatly reduces the amount of activity of pregnant women, and they are also in a negative psychological state.An active state is harmful to health, can easily lead to physical and mental fragility, and can even become an important factor in dystocia.
9. Complete abstinence and neglect of husband
10. Uncontrolled sexual life
Intemperate sexual activity in early and late pregnancy is often the cause of miscarriage, premature birth and intrauterine infection
11. Self-isolation, staying at home
Some pregnant women think that having butterfly spots or a big belly will make them ugly and stupid after pregnancy, and they don\’t want others to see their image; some pregnant women mistakenly believe that going out too much will affect the fetus in the body. Therefore, stay behind closed doors and isolate yourself. This practice is not only detrimental to the physical and mental health of pregnant women, but is also detrimental to the fetus and is not conducive to eugenics.
12. Lazy
Some pregnant women one-sidedly believe that the longer the rest period during pregnancy, the better. They have few activities and live a loose and regular life. This is not only detrimental to fetal development, but also causes trouble for normal delivery, prolongs the labor process, and increases labor stasis.
13. Improper dieting
Some pregnant women worry that they will gain weight and lose their \”beautiful figure\” after giving birth. They dare not eat more or do not eat meat, eggs and other nutrients during pregnancy, and some even eat less than usual. This cannot meet the needs of the fetus for rapid growth and development and will cause irreparable damage to the fetus the day after tomorrow.
14. Overnutrition
There are also some pregnant women who unilaterally believe that the better and more nutritious they eat, the better for the fetus. Therefore, during pregnancy, adopting the attitude of \”the more is better\” and \”eating when you see it\” will lead to excessive weight gain and easily lead to \”macrosomia\”, which not only causes difficulty in delivery, but is also one of the causes of postpartum obesity.
15. Participate in strenuous exercise or heavy work
A small number of pregnant women still participate in strenuous sports competitions during pregnancy, or engage in heavy physical tasks such as picking, lifting, and lifting. This is very dangerous and can easily lead to miscarriage or premature birth.
16. Traveling in the third trimester
It is quite dangerous for some pregnant women to travel to other places near their due date. There have been many reports of births taking place on train carriages. Giving birth without preparation is extremely dangerous and must be avoided.
17. Not paying attention to mental health
Many pregnant women do not pay attention to mental health care during pregnancy and are prone to losing their temper, being lazy, or feeling depressed, anxious, and sad. As everyone knows, bad emotions will not only directly affect the diet and sleep of pregnant women, endangering their health, but also have adverse effects on the fetus, which is not conducive to eugenics.
18. Forgetting or misremembering the due date
Some pregnant women do not pay attention to remembering the due date, thinking it is a trivial matter, but trivial matters often lead to catastrophe. Unknown due date affects prenatal preparation and is the main reason for unexpected delivery in other places or on the way. This is very detrimental to the health of mother and child.
19. On your ownDecide to have a cesarean section
At present, many pregnant women are afraid of \”suffering\” or mistakenly believe that the child born by caesarean section is smart and could have been delivered normally, so they urgently request caesarean section. This approach can do more harm than good. Because compared with normal natural delivery, cesarean section not only carries greater risks and risks for pregnant women, but is also detrimental to newborns and increases postpartum morbidity. Therefore, pregnant women should not request a cesarean section on their own. For pregnant women who cannot give birth naturally, doctors will choose cesarean section.
