Old people say that when you are pregnant with a boy, your stomach is pressed – the relationship between the changes in the body of pregnant women and the gender of the fetus
With the continuous development of modern technology, people\’s grasp of the gender of the fetus is becoming more and more accurate. But in ancient times when there were no examination methods such as B-ultrasound, people could only rely on the physical changes of pregnant women to guess the gender of the fetus. In the eyes of the older generation, the relationship between the physical changes of pregnant women and the gender of the fetus is unfathomable. This article will elaborate on the relationship between the physical changes of pregnant women and the gender of the fetus from the following four aspects.
1. Physical changes of pregnant women and fetal gender – the influence of traditional concepts
In ancient times, people generally believed that changes in a pregnant woman\’s body were closely related to the gender of the fetus. For example, among women who are considered by the older generation to be \”pregnant with a boy\”, common physical manifestations are a bulging stomach and a rosy complexion. Women who are considered to be \”pregnant with a girl\” often experience symptoms such as dry skin and depression. Although these claims have no scientific basis, traditional concepts are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and many people still believe in these claims.
2. Pregnant women’s body changes and fetal gender – explanation of scientific basis
Although the traditional concept has no scientific basis, scientific research has found that changes in the body of pregnant women are indeed closely related to the gender of the fetus. For example, pregnant women who are pregnant with boys will secrete more male hormones, which will lead to an increase in fat around the stomach and waist, and a wider facial contour. Pregnant women who are pregnant with girls have relatively low hormone levels and are prone to symptoms such as dry skin and hair loss. These findings don\’t prove a definite link between physical changes and fetal sex, but there is a correlation.
3. Physical changes of pregnant women and fetal gender – the influence of individual differences
However, it should be noted that the physical changes caused by the same fetal gender are not completely consistent in different pregnant women. Individual differences are relatively large and can even have opposite effects. Therefore, it is unreliable to judge the gender of the fetus solely based on the physical changes of the pregnant woman. Nowadays, the development of science and technology has made it more accurate to determine the gender of the fetus.
4. Physical changes of pregnant women and fetal gender – the significance of comprehensive judgment
Although body changes cannot completely reflect the gender of the fetus, the body changes of pregnant women still have certain reference value. When combined with modern scientific and technological detection methods, it can help improve accuracy. Therefore, pregnant women and their families can maintain an open and rational attitude, combine traditional concepts and modern technology, and fully refer to various information such as body changes and B-ultrasound testing to speculate on the gender of the fetus.
In short, with the constantly updated technology and knowledge, the topic of maternal body changes and fetal gender still attracts widespread attention and research. We should always maintain an open and rational attitude and approach this topic in a scientific manner to ensure the health of mother and baby during pregnancy.
