The dangers of crying frequently during pregnancy

We all know that a pregnant woman's body will undergo great changes during pregnancy, and her emotions fluctuate greatly during this period. Women are often prone to crying, but many women don't know whether crying frequently will have a certain impact on the fetus. We all know that maintaining a happy mood can allow the fetus to grow healthily in the belly, but what are the dangers of pregnant women crying frequently? Let us learn about the dangers of crying frequently during pregnancy.

The dangers of crying frequently during pregnancy

1) It may cause the fetus to be irritable and cry

If a pregnant woman cries often, the fetus will also often have such emotions. Because after 28 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus has the ability to perceive. When the fetus feels uncomfortable, it will cry sadly in the mother's womb.

Scientific experiments have found that when a speaker playing 90-decibel noise is placed on the abdomen of a pregnant woman, an ultrasound scan records the reaction of the fetus. The experiment shows that the fetus's movements are as if it is crying sadly. Doctors can even see the fetus's lower lip trembling slightly when it cries.

2) It may cause the baby to develop mental illness when he grows up

Data shows that pregnant women who cry frequently give birth to babies who are more psychologically fragile and negative than other children; if this habit is not corrected in time when they are young, they may develop various psychological and mental problems in their future studies and life.

3) May cause miscarriage

In the early stages of pregnancy, if pregnant women cry excessively and sadly for a long time, have large mood swings, are sensitive and suspicious, etc., it will lead to increased secretion of adrenal cortex hormones in winter, and the baby will be born significantly underweight, and there is a high probability of even miscarriage during the pregnancy.

4) Affect the normal development of the fetus

If pregnant women are often in a state of mental stimulation, fright, sadness or grief, the activity of the autonomic nervous system will intensify and endocrine system will change. The released chemicals such as acetylcholine can enter the fetus through the blood and the placenta, affecting the normal growth and development of the fetus.

5) Cause fetal malformation

Practice has shown that the roof of the mouth and maxilla of the fetus in the womb begin to develop and form in the late second month of pregnancy. However, if a pregnant woman is in a state of crying, excessive sadness, etc. every day, it will cause deformities such as cleft lip and cleft palate in the fetus.

6) Abnormal fetal movement

If a pregnant woman cries frequently, or is often in a bad mental state such as fear, depression, or mood swings, it will lead to changes in the mother's blood circulation, hypoxia, etc., thereby increasing or decreasing the number of fetal movements. (What is the normal frequency of fetal movement for pregnant women? How many times a day is considered normal?)

7) May cause premature birth

If a pregnant woman suddenly suffers a severe mental shock and cries frequently, it may cause uterine bleeding, premature birth, placental abruption, etc.

The above is an introduction to the dangers of crying frequently during pregnancy. After understanding it, we know that crying frequently during pregnancy will have a certain impact on the fetus. Sometimes it will cause the fetus to be particularly irritable and have frequent fetal movements in the mother's belly. In even more serious cases, it may lead to premature birth or miscarriage. Therefore, women must try their best to adjust their mood and maintain a happy attitude during pregnancy.
