Not having a checkup during pregnancy is the biggest burden on the baby

Li Qian is an office worker, working as a middle-level manager in a private enterprise. She is busy with work. Three years after her marriage, she finally got pregnant with the help of her family members.

Li Qian was already 34 years old when she became pregnant, which is considered an older mother in medical terms. She and her husband were busy with work, and there was no reaction in the early stages of pregnancy, so Li Qian neglected routine physical examinations. She would go for a check-up when she had time, and would not go if she didn't have time.

However, one day she received a call from the Lika Hospital, and the doctor told her that the fetus should be given an ultrasound to check for fetal abnormalities before 24 weeks, and that older mothers should also undergo amniocentesis to ensure the health of the fetus. If there is a problem, an induced abortion will be required.

Li Qian then realized the necessity of the examination. Fortunately, Li Qian's baby was very healthy. A few months later, Li Qian gave birth to a beautiful baby girl by caesarean section.

But if the fetus is really in danger due to not checking, I believe no mother can bear this negative impact.

Three tests that you must not miss during pregnancy, pregnant mothers should know

1. Blood sugar monitor

Due to changes in hormones and metabolism during pregnancy, pregnant women are likely to develop gestational diabetes. The most direct impact of high blood sugar during pregnancy is that the fetus will be too large, and it may even cause fetal death or deformity.

If detected early, it can be controlled through diet, exercise or medication. A diabetes screening test should be done between 24 and 28 weeks of pregnancy.
