The harm of crying during pregnancy

In the late stages of pregnancy, pregnant women's emotions are often more unstable and their moods fluctuate greatly. Crying is a condition that will stimulate fluctuations in the whole body system and is very likely to affect the physical and mental health of the fetus. Therefore, pregnant women must keep a good mental state and maintain an optimistic attitude. So, what effects does crying in late pregnancy have on the fetus?

What are the effects of crying during late pregnancy on the fetus?

There is information showing that the fetus can hear and respond differently to the sound of the mother's blood, talking, water in the stomach, breathing, heartbeat, muscle and joint movements, and various external sounds.

Pregnant women are under long-term negative emotional stimulation, and the body functions of the baby are usually unbalanced after birth, especially the digestive function is prone to disorder, resulting in vomiting, frequent defecation, and significant weight loss. Such babies often show anxiety, are easily frightened, cry and make a fuss, etc. in their mentality and behavior. When such children grow up, they usually have poor ability to adapt to the natural environment.

Because the mother's negative mental stimulation can stimulate abnormal central nervous system activity, causing endocrine changes and endocrine imbalance, abnormal biologically active substances enter the fetus's body through the embryo and fetal umbilical cord, thereby affecting the fetus's psychosomatic functions.

If a pregnant woman is too restless, it may cause the baby's lips to be extremely abnormal. In the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, if the pregnant woman's mental state suddenly changes, such as being frightened, afraid, sad, etc., or long-term mental stress and anxiety, it can cause the imbalance between the pregnant woman's cerebral cortex and internal organs, causing circulatory disorders, abnormal uterine bleeding, early embryo separation, and even fetal death.

Severe and persistent mental anxiety in pregnant women can induce autonomic nervous system dysfunction, release acetylcholine imbalance, and cause endocrine changes. These substances are transmitted to the fetus through the embryo and fetal umbilical cord, directly affecting the normal physiological functions of the fetus.
