When it comes to the hardships of pregnancy, many people's first reaction is mother, after all, a person needs to bear the weight of two people, but also endure the torture of various pregnancy reactions.
But you know what? In fact, during pregnancy, there is a baby that is as hard as the mother, especially when it is close to delivery, the baby is waiting for the moment when it is delivered in a position that looks uncomfortable in us.
During pregnancy, the fetus will "martial arts", and the handstand for a long time will cause pain
When my girlfriend Guoguo was pregnant, she suddenly came to me one day with a picture, pointed to the pattern on it, and said: You see the baby is upside down in my stomach, is it difficult to be "martial arts" at a young age? But how uncomfortable is his posture, is there any way to make him adjust?
Hearing such a question, the bud nurse mother is also very speechless, but helpless is her own friend, can only patiently explain to the girlfriend, the reason why the fetus is in the handstand, and whether the baby will be uncomfortable.
Different from our ordinary people's "head and feet", the fetal baby is "head and feet" in the mother's belly.
Due to the influence of gravity in life, each of us is accustomed to maintaining a "head and foot" posture, and once it is reversed, it will not be long before we feel dizzy because of cerebral congestion.
So in the pregnancy of the fetus, especially the third trimester of the baby, they will often appear as a "head down" posture after they enter the basin, even for several weeks, then such a position of fetal babies will not be uncomfortable?
Approaching the third trimester, why does the fetus maintain a "head down" posture?
1) Protection of amniotic fluid
In the mother's womb, the fetus will be wrapped in amniotic membranes, and the amniotic membrane is filled with a large amount of amniotic fluid, amniotic fluid can not only play a role in lubrication, but also let the baby be unaffected by daily gravity, the buoyancy in the amniotic fluid, will be reduced to the gravity in the blood, the baby naturally will not have the discomfort of brain congestion.
2) Head down is also an instinct
The baby's head-down posture is actually a survival instinct. Mothers who have experienced childbirth know that during normal delivery, the baby is the first to show the head, and if you want to come out of the head first, the baby must be in this "handstand" position in the mother's belly, which is more conducive to the smoothness of the baby during childbirth.
And this kind of postural delivery will also allow the baby to breathe oxygen as soon as possible, so as not to be embarrassed to breathe in the birth canal for too long, reducing the occurrence of accidents.
3) Normal physiological conditions
The shape of the mother's uterus is more like an "upside-down pear", the top is large and the bottom is small, and the fetus will put the feet on it during development, in order to match the shape of the uterus, so that it will be more convenient when moving.
During the fetal period, the baby's head is relatively large, and the mother's uterine memory range is limited, so in order to increase the range of motion and not squeeze the mother's organs, the baby will naturally stay with his head down.
4) The role of gravity
The fetus is in a vacuum state in the amniotic fluid, when the fetus is still small, it can swim freely in the womb, and as the fetus grows up, the fetal head will become larger and larger, subject to gravity, and the natural head will naturally go down.
Won't the baby in the third trimester feel uncomfortable with "big head down"?
If you stand in the adult's point of view, such a long handstand will definitely feel very uncomfortable, or even unbearable, but the fetal baby feels different from us, they will not feel very uncomfortable.
Because of the relationship between amniotic fluid, the fetus in the mother's stomach is more like a "vacuum" state, no matter which posture is the same for the fetus, because the internal pressure is the same, so even if the baby is standing upside down for a long time, in fact, it is the same as our adults usually stand, and it will not affect their own development, nor will they cause themselves to have a "head down" suffocation feeling.
Bud Care Mom wants to say:
Therefore, after the pregnant mother learns the reason and feeling of the baby's "big head down", she does not have to worry about the safety of the baby, in fact, people enjoy such a feeling
