People who have had pregnancy experience know that pregnancy is a difficult time, early morning sickness, late leg pain, and insomnia due to fetal development are also common. But do you know that when pregnant women stay up late, what is the fetus doing? The answer is somewhat frightening to pregnant mothers. Friend Xiaoyou, who has now entered the third trimester of pregnancy, considers the special situation of her pregnancy, and the unit allows her to go home and wait for delivery.
But xiao you, who is completely idle, the rhythm of life is disrupted. In her words, it was originally a big belly, and the sleeping position at night was really difficult to control. It is difficult to fall asleep, anyway, there is no constraint to get up early to work the next day, and it is normal to brush your mobile phone at night to pass the time, and to sleep at one or two o'clock in the morning is the norm.
"When you were pregnant, how did you spend the days before you gave birth?" Xiao You asked me for experience.
"You must adjust your schedule. To know that pregnant mothers stay up late are equivalent to abusing the fetus. "I hurried to stop her behavior.
"Is there such an exaggeration?" Xiao You thinks I'm alarmist.
I told Xiao you: "Pregnancy is the moment when the mother and the fetus "breathe together and share a common destiny". Especially from the second trimester, the development of the fetus's body organs is complete, and they have better hearing ability. Across the mother's belly, they can hear the sounds of the outside world, and when the pregnant mother stays up late to brush the mobile phone, the fetus is also forced to "stay up late" with the mother.
If the pregnant mother stays up late for a long time, the metabolism will be disrupted, the original balance of the body hormone level will fluctuate, and the fetus's original relatively safe living environment will also change. The fetus that feels uncomfortable will twist its body to send signals to the mothers, so pregnant mothers usually feel the fetal movement frequently when staying up late.
If the risk of staying up late continues, it will have a serious negative impact on fetal growth and development, and may even lead to fetal stoppage and premature birth!
"It was horrible! Starting today, I promise never to stay up late again. After listening to my story, Xiao You only felt a moment of fear.
However, the guarantee is guaranteed, many pregnant mothers are complaining, pregnancy is not that we want to stay up late, it is a special reason for pregnancy, such as: bloated body leads to uncomfortable sleeping posture, prenatal anxiety leads to repeated tossing and turning, etc., how can this be good?
How can I improve the quality of sleep during pregnancy? I would like to share with you some tips for pregnancy.
Keep your mood calm during the day
Affected by hormonal changes during pregnancy, many pregnant mothers are emotionally unstable. Just like when I was pregnant with Dabao, the state of pregnancy was not very good, there was no income at home to give birth, I was anxious about the economy, I had no experience in childbirth, and I was afraid of giving birth, in short, I thought about it all day long.
During the obstetric examination, the doctor advised me to adjust my mood and maintain my mood during the day as much as possible. When you're fine, you can read a book or listen to a piece of light music just to relax your mind. Then you can learn in advance and reserve some parenting knowledge to prepare for the baby. With this spiritual sustenance and learning goals, I didn't have time to think about the messy bad things, the mental pressure was reduced a lot, and it became easier to fall asleep at night.
Learn to adjust your sleeping position with your strength
As we all know, the best sleeping position in the third trimester is to lie on the left side, which can alleviate the rotation of the right side of the uterus, alleviate the shortage of blood supply to the uterus, and avoid fetal hypoxia. But this safe sleeping position is easy to say, and it is still quite difficult to do in the long run.
For me, I am used to the sleeping position of the right side, and suddenly change to the left side, which is really unaccustomed. Sleeping in the wrong position also delays falling asleep. So, referring to the practices of many pregnant mothers, I prepared some sleep aids for myself during pregnancy.
When sleeping, a strong pillow is placed on the back and between the knees for power, because the force area increases, reducing the pressure on the back, even if you maintain a long-term left lying position, there will be no half-body numbness of pressure. Not to mention, a comfortable sleeping position really helps to fall asleep, at least in the third trimester of pregnancy I did not have insomnia because of sleeping position.
Comfortable sleeping conditions
Sleep conditions also have a great impact on sleep quality, such as: light source, sound, temperature, etc. Before I got pregnant, I thought I wasn't squeamish and could still fall asleep in any environment. But after pregnancy, it really doesn't work, either it feels too noisy outside or it feels too hot inside.
But it doesn't matter, pregnancy is privileged! After communicating with my family, I changed the bedroom curtains to darker shades with better blackouts. My family also tried their best to match my schedule and create a quiet sleeping environment for me.
At the same time, many small habits before going to bed have also begun to change, such as no longer brushing mobile phones before going to bed, chasing dramas, using computers, not letting my brains before going to bed in a state of excitement, and listening to a soft music before going to bed.
At the same time, it is best to turn on the air conditioner and set it to a constant temperature state of about 26-27 degrees. Because after pregnancy, pregnant women have a slightly higher physique than others, they are afraid of heat, and the relatively cool and pleasant environment is more conducive to falling asleep.
Develop a regular biological clock
After pregnancy, many pregnant mothers are "ordered" to rest more. Plenty of rest time has also completely disrupted the schedules of many pregnant mothers. Sleeping more during the day, it is difficult to fall asleep at night, and it is difficult to stay up late and hurt!
I set myself a schedule for my pregnancy, and I got up at 7 a.m. and went outside to get some fresh air. Naps during the day can last no more than half an hour, and you must get up before 2 p.m.
The time to fall asleep each day will not be unlimited, and you will prepare yourself for falling asleep at 9 o'clock at night. Take a hot bath and leave your body in a relaxed state, then listen to light music or schedule a period of white noise. The sounds from nature really have a very magical power, and the baby in the belly will be particularly quiet, and he will be successfully "hypnotized" with me.
Of course, I also hear people around me show off from time to time, the whole pregnancy is black and white upside down life, the child is not born as healthy and healthy? This bet on the health of the fetus in the abdomen, I advise pregnant mothers not to try, after all, the risk is really big.
