After pregnancy, pregnant mothers endured the torment of uncomfortable symptoms throughout pregnancy, and it was difficult to survive to the due date and meet the conditions for full-term delivery, and some mothers could not stand the idea of having an early caesarean section.
Faced with such thoughts of pregnant mothers, doctors often recommend that the fetus stay in the stomach for a few more days. But some pregnant mothers still insist on giving birth early, and even say with vigor and words: Isn't it full term at 37 weeks? Since you are full-term, you can be born at any time.
Having said that, the reality is that "one day in the belly is better than 10 days outside".
Why is the fetus in the stomach for 1 extra day, better than 10 days outside?
Many pregnant mothers believe that as long as the fetus reaches 37 weeks, it belongs to the term, and it does not matter whether it is born early or late.
Theoretically, those fetuses born at the gestational age of 37-42 weeks are full-term children, their various organs have matured, their length and weight have also matured, and they have fully met the conditions for childbirth.
However, full-term children do not mean that they can be born immediately, and although full-term children have a full development cycle, they are still some time away from childbirth.
The U.S. medical community has further shortened the time frame for term babies, believing that newborns born between 39 and 41 weeks are truly full-term babies.
American scientists have found that babies born at 39 weeks lag slightly behind in their development, mainly in breathing, listening and learning cognitive abilities.
The main reason for this result is that the key development of the brain is in the first two weeks of pregnancy, that is, 37-39 weeks, and those children born after 39 weeks mean that the performance of IQ, comprehension and cognitive ability will be better.
Towards the third trimester, the risk of preterm birth increases. Clinically, a fetus that is more than 28 weeks pregnant but less than 37 weeks pregnant is called a "premature baby".
There are many causes of preterm birth, of which 70-80% are spontaneous preterm births, caused by some improper behavior of pregnant mothers. Therefore, the closer to the third trimester of pregnancy, pregnant mothers should pay more attention to all aspects of life.
Do 3 in the third trimester to get the baby born at term
1. On-time obstetric examination
Obstetric examination is something that pregnant mothers should insist on during pregnancy, especially after entering the third trimester of pregnancy, it is necessary to have a timely obstetric examination.
Obstetric examination in the third trimester can not only monitor the condition of the fetus, but also know the way the pregnant woman will give birth and the intrauterine situation in the near future, and better help the pregnant mother to give birth.
2. Nutritional balance
Malnutrition is also one of the important causes of preterm birth, especially malnutrition in the third trimester, which increases the chance of preterm birth.
In addition, the incontinence of the diet in the third trimester will also lead to abnormal contractions, resulting in premature birth, so the closer the pregnant mother is to the third trimester, the more strictly she must demand herself in the diet, pay attention to the balanced intake of nutrients, to meet the nutritional needs of herself and the fetus.
3. Pay attention to the hygiene of private parts
The immunity of pregnant women in the third trimester will be relatively weak, which will cause some diseases, especially private parts, and make pregnant mothers "have words of suffering".
These pathological diseases will be transmitted to the fetus through the mother, which will lead to premature birth, so pregnant mothers in the third trimester should pay more attention to their own health management to avoid infection with gynecological diseases.
Do not do 3 in the third trimester to avoid the early birth of the baby
1. Different rooms
The fetus in the third trimester is often almost intact in terms of length and weight, and even the head of the fetus has been put into the basin, at this time, if you have sex, it is easy to hurt the amniotic membrane, resulting in amniotic membrane fragmentation, resulting in the occurrence of premature birth.
Therefore, at this time, pregnant mothers and expectant fathers should also restrain themselves, regulate their behavior, and do not start to "break the vows" because they are close to the due date.
2, do not produce bad emotions
The influence of the pregnant mother's emotions on the fetus during the entire pregnancy cannot be ignored. There was once a report that a pregnant mother suddenly laughed wildly when watching a performance in the third trimester of pregnancy, which directly caused the fetus to be born prematurely.
From this point of view, it is not bad emotions that lead to abnormal fetal conditions, and some sudden fluctuations will have an impact on the body and cause the child to be born prematurely.
Therefore, in the third trimester, pregnant mothers should try to keep calm emotionally and become More Buddhist.
3. Do not touch the pregnant belly frequently
Frequent touching of the pregnant belly will lead to abnormal uterine contractions, especially in the third trimester, the uterus is enlarged by the fetus, abnormally sensitive, pregnant mother in the process of touching the pregnant belly, easy to cause uterine contractions, resulting in premature birth.
