Introduction to the first three months of pregnancy

What preparations do we need to make in the first three months of pregnancy? Today, I am here to introduce it to you. I hope that all expectant mothers can take a good look at it. Proper preparations in the first three months of pregnancy can make your baby healthier, so everyone must read it carefully.

1st month of pregnancy

Main nutrient: Folic acid

Function: Prevent fetal neurological defects

Folic acid supplementation can prevent anemia, premature birth, and fetal malformations. This is especially important in the early stages of pregnancy because the early stages are critical for the development of the fetus's nervous organs. Pregnant mothers should eat foods rich in folic acid regularly, such as cereal foods such as bread, noodles, white rice and flour, as well as beef liver, spinach, asparagus, asparagus, beans, apples, citrus, oranges, etc. In addition to dietary supplements, you can also take folic acid tablets orally to ensure your daily folic acid needs.

2nd month of pregnancy

Main nutrients: Vitamin C, Vitamin B6

Effect: Relieve gum bleeding, inhibit pregnancy vomiting

In the second month of pregnancy, some expectant mothers will find that their gums bleed when brushing their teeth. Appropriate supplementation of vitamin C can alleviate the bleeding gums. At the same time, it can help improve the body's resistance and prevent dental diseases. Vitamin C in our life comes from fresh fruits and vegetables, such as green peppers, cauliflower, cabbage, tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, lemons, strawberries, apples, etc.

Tip: Do not cook the above foods for too long to avoid a large loss of vitamin C.

For expectant mothers who suffer from morning sickness, vitamin B6 is the nemesis of morning sickness. Vitamin VB6 is most abundant in maltose. Eating 1-2 spoons of maltose every day can not only suppress vomiting during pregnancy, but also make pregnant women energetic. Other foods rich in vitamin B6 include bananas, potatoes, soybeans, carrots, walnuts, peanuts, spinach and other plant foods. Animal foods contain more vitamin C, such as lean meat, chicken, eggs, and fish.

3rd month of pregnancy

Main nutrients: magnesium, vitamin A

Function: Promote the growth and development of the fetus

Magnesium is not only essential for the health of fetal muscles, but also contributes to the normal development of bones. Recent studies have shown that the amount of magnesium consumed during the first three months of pregnancy is related to the height, weight and head circumference of the newborn. Magnesium is easily found in salad oils, green leafy vegetables, nuts, soybeans, pumpkin, melon, sunflower seeds and whole grains. In addition, magnesium is also beneficial for the recovery of uterine muscles in expectant mothers.

Vitamin A is needed throughout the entire process of fetal development, and it can especially ensure the health of the fetal skin, gastrointestinal tract and lungs. During the first three months of pregnancy, the fetus cannot store vitamin A on its own, so the pregnant mother must have an adequate supply. Sweet potatoes, pumpkins, spinach and mangoes all contain large amounts of VA.

According to a survey, 35% of young men and women have no plans for pregnancy, 47% have plans for pregnancy but are not prepared for it, and only 8% have plans and preparations for pregnancy, which is extremely detrimental to eugenics.

"Planning is the key to success, while lack of planning leads to failure." The same goes for childbirth, which requires preparation in advance.

The first three months of pregnancy are the time to prepare for pregnancy and the first step to achieve eugenics and good parenting. Therefore, make the following preparations.

1. It is the key to eugenics to have a good physical examination, adjust your lifestyle, and ensure the quality of the "seeds" and fertile "soil".

2. When a couple is preparing for pregnancy, they should strengthen their dietary regulation. Pregnant women must check their nutritional status, supplement essential and deficient nutrients, and ensure adequate nutrition in the first three months of pregnancy, which is very important for the normal development of the fetus.

3. Psychological preparation is important. Both husband and wife are mentally healthy and prepared to have a healthy baby, which is beneficial to the health of both mother and child, because the mother's psychological burden will directly affect the fetus.

4. Preparation of the environment and items, mainly preparing the items needed by the pregnant woman during pregnancy, such as clothes and shoes, etc.

5. Pre-pregnancy disease prevention mainly prevents genetic diseases, common diseases and infectious diseases, prevents physiological defects in the next generation, improves the quality of fertility, and lays a solid foundation for eugenics and good parenting.

The above are the preparations for the first three months of pregnancy. Everyone must read it carefully. Finally, the editor wishes all expectant mothers can give birth to healthy babies. At the same time, I also hope that your babies can grow up healthily and will not cause their parents to worry too much.
