Kobayashi had just become pregnant when she was pulled into a group of pregnant mothers by her cousin. I thought that everyone in the group should exchange experiences during pregnancy, but what I didn't expect was a "spit conference"...
"I am six or seven months pregnant, now my brain is really not good, yesterday's events today no one reminded me to forget it"
"Who said no, I wrote down in the book at night to go to work with ID card today, the result was that I didn't read the book in the morning, and I didn't bring my ID card"
"When I was pregnant, the worse my brain got, and I forgot to attend the wedding of my college classmates last week, which was really sad."
Kobayashi was a little flustered, "One pregnancy is stupid for three years" The words will not be true.
Are you reading the article any such pregnancy fun things you want to complain about?
Pregnant fools ≠ intelligence is reduced!
Many people simply classify "pregnant stupidity" as mentally reduced, which has no basis. The essence of pregnancy stupidity is that there is a short regression in the memory of pregnant mothers, but in the treatment of the baby, the reaction and memory of pregnant mothers will not have any decrease or even improvement, and they are particularly sensitive to the needs of the child.
The so-called "pregnant stupidity" is also different from person to person, some pregnant mothers have not experienced a decline in memory and reaction ability, and some pregnant mothers will have a decline in reaction and memory ability, the reasons are mainly due to the following points.
● Sleep problems. Pregnant mothers, especially in the middle and late stages, many of the sleep quality has a large decline, prone to sleep interruption, which very affects people's memory, cognitive ability and reaction speed.
● Hormonal problems. The rise of sex hormones during pregnancy can affect certain areas of the brain, and estrogen and progesterone are prone to sharp changes during this time, and this gap can easily make pregnant mothers emotionally volatile.
● Excessive pressure. Many pregnant mothers, especially novice pregnant mothers like Kobayashi, have too much tension and pressure on pregnancy, and even anxiety and depression, which cannot be discharged normally and are easy to stimulate the brain.
● Nutritional issues. Although pregnant mothers will choose a big supplement, but there is a deviation in the direction, folic acid deficiency, calcium and iron deficiency, vitamin deficiency abounds, not to mention the supply of nutritional supplements for the fetus, and the problem of nutrition should not be underestimated.
Refuse to be "pregnant stupid"!
It can be seen that although pregnant mothers may physically have "silly" signs, according to these reasons, ways can be found to avoid becoming stupid. If you don't want to be bothered by "pregnant stupidity", you can do this.
1. Improve sleep quality
It is inevitable that there will be a night awakening during pregnancy, and there will be some restrictions on the sleeping position in the later stage, which requires pregnant mothers to have a good sleep. Usually refuse to stay up late, lunch break can also be appropriate nap, for improving the quality of the brain has a good effect.
2. Nutritional supplements are in place
The brain needs enough energy and nutrients to nourish, not only to meet the needs of the pregnant mother, but also the baby's share. Among them, the more important nutritional elements such as folic acid, calcium, iron, vitamins and so on are the top priorities, do not blindly supplement. Like folic acid, which is difficult to meet through daily diet, it should be appropriately supplemented by other means, and should also be ensured to be absorbed in place.
It is recommended to supplement with medical vita fruit and vegetable methylfolate, which contains 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, which is the only form of folic acid that can pass through the blood-brain barrier and enter the brain. And the medical vitamin 2 also contains DHA and α-linolenic acid, which comprehensively protects the nutritional needs of pregnant women, so that pregnancy is no longer "pregnant stupid"!
3. Regulate emotions
Although pregnancy is a major life event, pregnant mothers do not have to be overly nervous, and they cannot have anxiety or depression. In daily life, pregnant mothers can relieve their nervousness by listening to music, appropriate games, small exercises, etc., keep their mood comfortable, and reduce the burden on the brain.
So "pregnancy stupid" refers to a lower IQ, then I can responsibly say that there is no such thing, and even after giving birth to the mother becomes smarter.
A study in the American journal "Contemporary Psychology" showed that in the long run, most women tend to become more focused and patient after becoming mothers, and have better performance in response and judgment tests.
This is evident in life: you will find that many mothers can take care of their children while cooking, without delay; they can patiently coax their children after giving birth to a child in the past; if the child has something, the mother can also rush to protect the child at the first time.
