Due to the unique immune tolerance during pregnancy, pregnant women have lower resistance to diseases than the general population and are susceptible to influenza infection.
To prevent influenza during pregnancy, pregnant women should try to avoid going to crowded, noisy, and crowded public places. On the one hand, the air in these places is polluted, affecting the oxygen supply to the fetus; on the other hand, the density of pathogenic microorganisms in public places is much higher than in other areas, and pregnant women have poor resistance and are susceptible to diseases.
Pregnant women try to wear a mask when going out and gargle with light salt water frequently. Pay attention to indoor air circulation and keep it clean. If there are people with the flu around, the indoor air should be disinfected.
Pregnant women should live a regular life and avoid overwork. They should ensure about 10 hours of sleep every day. They should have a diversified diet and avoid a partial eclipse. They should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits and enough protein to enhance the body\’s resistance.
Pregnant women should strengthen physical exercise, engage in more outdoor activities, and get more sun exposure to improve their body\’s ability to adapt to climate change.
