Not everyone needs a nanny

Prenatal care, as the name suggests, is to protect the fetus, enable it to develop healthily, and avoid miscarriage. Therefore, for a healthy developing fetus, the so-called \”pregnancy protection\” is completely unnecessary. Wang Yuxia, chief physician of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, said that in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus is in an unstable period and the probability of miscarriage is higher. If there are no other symptoms of threatened abortion, such as abdominal pain, bleeding, or low hormone levels, pregnant women with no previous miscarriage and no family history of spontaneous abortion do not need abortion treatment.

Q: Do I have to protect my baby when bleeding occurs?

A: Bleeding in early pregnancy may not necessarily cause miscarriage, but it will increase the chance of miscarriage. So, is it necessary to protect the miscarriage if there is bleeding? Wang Yuxia believes that this depends on the specific situation. Because there are many reasons for spontaneous abortion, such as chromosomal abnormalities, placental abnormalities, uterine abnormalities, sex hormone imbalances, infections, chronic diseases, etc. Some reasons can lead to abnormal fetal development. In fact, some spontaneous abortions in early pregnancy are natural elimination and avoid the birth of deformed babies. In other words, if the embryo develops normally, the fetal preservation effect is good. If the embryo does not develop well, abortion is not used. Therefore, blind abortion is not recommended.

Q: There is no bleeding and no abdominal pain. Why should the baby be kept?

A: In addition to symptoms, doctors will also take comprehensive consideration based on the pregnant woman’s physical examination indicators, such as HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), progesterone, etc. Generally speaking, if HCG doubling is not good, the embryo may be stunted or even stop growing due to lack of nutrition; if progesterone is low, the embryo will be unstable, leading to bleeding or even miscarriage. Therefore, even if a pregnant woman has no symptoms of threatened abortion, if these indicators are low, it may increase the chance of miscarriage. Wang Yuxia emphasized that low progesterone does not necessarily lead to miscarriage, but out of caution, doctors will advise pregnant women to maintain abortion. Different numerical abnormalities correspond to different treatments, which must be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.

Q: The first pregnancy was miscarried, does the second child need protection?

A: Each child should be treated individually. Just because the first baby is in good condition does not mean that the second baby is 100% normal. Therefore, normal prenatal check-ups should be carried out on time. Women who stop developing their first embryo and miscarry naturally do not need to worry too much. There are many causes of miscarriage. Whether the embryo itself developsWhether it is bad, or it is the influence of the environment after conception, the cause should be actively searched after the first miscarriage, and this cause must be found by both men and women. It is recommended to do it before pregnancy. examine.

Pregnancy should be scientific and don’t be too nervous

The word \”preservation\” often makes pregnant women nervous. Will it lead to miscarriage? Do you need to take time off work to stay at home? In Wang Yuxia’s view, protection during pregnancy should neither be underestimated nor overly stressful. Excessive stress will make pregnant women nervous, affect hormone secretion, and be detrimental to fetal development. In fact, there is no need to take medicine or lie still to maintain pregnancy. It is suggested that miscarriage may not necessarily result from miscarriage. Pregnant mothers should get rid of misunderstandings about miscarriage as soon as possible.

Myth 1: You must move less to protect your tires

Some pregnant women lie down every day during miscarriage, fearing that motionlessness will have adverse effects on the fetus. In fact, standing still is not good for your body at all. Wang Yuxia said that for pregnant women, appropriate activities can promote blood circulation and ensure the blood supply of the embryo, which is beneficial to both the pregnant woman and the fetus.

Myth 2: Preservation requires drugs and supplements

There is no need to take medicine for miscarriage. Generally speaking, if you can\’t use the medicine, don\’t use it. If you can use it less, use less medicine. Some pregnant women’s method of protecting their fetus is to rest more. If you need to take tocolytic drugs, the decision should be based on the specific situation of the pregnant woman, such as hormone levels, symptoms, etc.

In addition, you should not use supplements indiscriminately during pregnancy, and it is best not to take supplements containing ginseng ingredients. Ginseng can promote blood circulation and has anticoagulant effects, which may cause bleeding or even miscarriage.
