Zhengzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall: Five types of pregnant mothers are prone to depression
1. Pregnant women who have experienced miscarriage
If a pregnant woman has had a miscarriage in the past, she may be concerned about the safety of the fetus during this pregnancy. If the last miscarriage was shortly after this pregnancy, or if there were many miscarriages in a year, the pregnant woman's body may not have fully recovered from the previous miscarriage, and she is mentally and physically relatively vulnerable, making it easier to cause depression during pregnancy.
2. Pregnant women who have a certain risk during pregnancy
Some complex or dangerous pregnancies (such as twins or multiples) that require prolonged bed rest or multiple genetic tests can cause pregnant women to suffer both mentally and physically. On the one hand, they have to endure the physical pain of pregnancy, and on the other hand, they have to be afraid of the results, so such pregnant women are more likely to be depressed during pregnancy, which should be paid special attention to.
3. Pregnant women who become pregnant by means of drugs, etc
If you have ever had a tendency to become infertile and become pregnant by taking medications, then you must endure months of endocrine disorders caused by the side effects of the drug, as well as the resulting emotional instability. Once pregnant, they face the fear and fear of losing this hard-won fetus, and this group of people is also very prone to depression during pregnancy.
4. Pregnant women who have had painful experiences
Pregnancy may trigger painful memories of emotional, sexual, physical, or verbal abuse experienced by pregnant women in the past. At this time, the changes in the body are not controlled by the will. The sense of loss of control brought about by this physical change may remind you of the sense of loss of control when you are abused, making you depressed for a long time.
5. Pregnant women whose lives have undergone major changes
In order to better welcome the arrival of the baby, is there a bigger place to live? Or is it because of pregnancy or other reasons that make work difficult? Any major changes in life during pregnancy, such as moving, divorcing, losing one's job, losing one's family or friends, etc., can cause the pregnant woman to fall into depression during pregnancy.
