What should pregnant women pay attention to during B-ultrasound examination

Pregnant women should pay attention to physical examinations and fetal examinations during pregnancy to avoid situations where problems with the fetus are not discovered in time. Therefore, to improve the comprehensiveness of the examination, pregnant women need to pay attention to many factors during B-ultrasound examinations to avoid these factors affecting the effect of B-ultrasound examinations, especially to ensure the accuracy of the diagnosis. So what should pregnant women pay attention to during B-ultrasound examinations?

1. Hold your urine in advance

When doing an ultrasound in the early stages of pregnancy, a certain amount of urine needs to accumulate in the bladder in order to see clearly, so it is recommended that pregnant mothers hold their urine in advance. If you need to do an ultrasound examination in the early stages of pregnancy due to special circumstances, such as abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, etc., then drink 4 to 6 cups of boiled water at home in advance to save time going to the hospital for examination.

2. Eating gas-producing foods

Do not eat foods that easily produce gas, such as milk, sweet potatoes, etc. Because this will hinder the penetration of ultrasound, resulting in unclear imaging of the organs being examined.

3. It is best to wear loose clothes and shoes that are easy to put on and take off

This can save time and also help pregnant mothers relax their nervous mood. During the examination, you should try to relax and cooperate with the doctor. If you are too nervous during the examination, it may affect the effectiveness of the examination.

4. Urinate early

When doing an ultrasound examination in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, not only do you not need to hold your urine, you should also urinate in advance. This is because after three months of pregnancy, the uterus becomes larger and larger, and the amniotic fluid increases. The amniotic fluid becomes a "window", and the doctor can observe the condition of the fetus through the amniotic fluid using an ultrasound instrument. If there is urine in the bladder, it may affect the appearance of the fetal image because the full bladder will push the uterus aside.

Therefore, pregnant women should pay attention to the above-mentioned issues during B-ultrasound examinations to avoid errors in the examination that may cause dangerous conditions to the pregnant woman's body. It is important to seek appropriate consultation in a timely manner before the examination. Pregnant women should drink more water on an empty stomach before the examination, which will help with the examination. Therefore, just pay attention to the above-mentioned issues.
