The 3-6 weeks of pregnancy is a critical stage in the growth and development of the embryonic central nervous system and the time when it is most susceptible to teratogenic factors. Fetal development throughout pregnancy, such as long-term influences on teratogenic factors, may cause malformations of different organs of the fetus.

Pregnant women be vigilant: lead-contaminated water

Lead from old pipes can get into tap water, and water quality in heavily polluted areas is generally poor. Long-term drinking of leaded water by pregnant women can lead to fetal malformations. Therefore, before connecting tap water, it is best to open the tap for a few minutes to put water, and families with conditions are recommended to install water purifiers.

In addition, if there is a hot water pipe in the home, do not drink the water of the hot water pipe directly or cook with hot water, the hot water will be more likely to precipitate the harmful components in the pipe.
