Tang Wei, who is more than 6 months pregnant, has become slightly fatter and has a bigger belly. Netizens commented: “Be careful when traveling during pregnancy!”
Taking the high-speed rail is a safer mode of transportation for pregnant women. However, pregnant women should not take it lightly when taking the high-speed rail. What issues should they pay attention to?
Expectant mothers should choose to travel during the second trimester
Pregnant women can take the high-speed rail, but they must be treated differently according to their pregnancy period. Pregnant women in the first three months of pregnancy have a strong reaction to pregnancy, so try not to travel far during pregnancy preparation. Between 4 and 7 months old, the baby is basically stable in the mother\’s belly. The energy is also relatively sufficient, and you can engage in outdoor sports or travel appropriately at this time. After 8 months, in order to avoid long-distance travel, it is not advisable to travel at this time if the mother is overworked or has some accidents on the way, such as collisions, extrusions, etc., which may induce premature birth.
In addition, you should pay attention to rest and diet on the train, keep a good mood, and get off the train early if you find any adverse reactions.
Things to note while traveling:
1. Don’t hold in your urine.
Going to the bathroom is a big problem. Many expectant mothers try to hold in their urine for fear of trouble. This is a very dangerous approach. Holding in urine can cause the bladder to overdistend, which can stimulate uterine contractions.
2. Change positions in half an hour.
Expectant mothers should stand or walk every half hour during the trip. Pregnancy increases the burden on the circulatory system, which can easily lead to varicose veins and blood clots in pregnant women. Expectant mothers often experience back pain even if they sit for long periods of time. If you are traveling by car, get out of the car for 10 minutes every 2 hours or so to exercise, especially your stiff legs.
3. Avoid crowding.
Pregnant women should avoid crowding when getting on or off the bus to avoid falls and accidents.
