How often should I breathe during late pregnancy?

How often should I breathe during late pregnancy?

In the late pregnancy, hypoxia requires oxygen inhalation every half an hour, and can be inhaled 22 times a day. If the fetal heart rate is normal and the pregnant woman has no symptoms of chest tightness or discomfort, we do not recommend oxygen inhalation, as it may cause oxygen poisoning in the pregnant woman, thus affecting the normal development of the fetus. For the case of hypoxia in the late pregnancy, we can ensure that the environment we live in is dry, hygienic and ventilated, and go out appropriately to breathe fresh air.

How long should I take oxygen at a time during late pregnancy?

1. Pregnant women need oxygen when the fetal movement decreases or increases significantly, and they also need oxygen when they suffer from respiratory inflammation.

2. During pregnancy, fetal heart rate monitoring is mainly used to determine whether the fetus is suffering from hypoxia. If the fetus is suffering from hypoxia, oxygen can be administered for no more than half an hour each time.

3. Oxygen can be inhaled twice a day. If the fetal heart rate is normal and the pregnant woman does not have chest tightness, palpitations or other discomfort, oxygen inhalation is not recommended, because excessive oxygen inhalation can lead to oxygen poisoning, which is extremely harmful to both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Blindly excessive oxygen inhalation will affect children's eyesight.

What should I pay attention to when taking oxygen during late pregnancy?

1. First of all, long-term unnecessary oxygen inhalation may cause excessively high blood oxygen concentration in pregnant women, causing internal environmental disorders.

2. Secondly, if the blood oxygen concentration in pregnant women is too high, it will stimulate the fetal blood vessels through the placenta. In particular, the developing retinal blood vessels of the fetus are extremely sensitive to high concentrations of oxygen, which may cause damage to and blockage of the retinal vascular endothelium, and further lead to retinopathy, glaucoma and other problems.

Women in late pregnancy need to choose whether to use oxygen based on the results of prenatal checkups and communicate with their doctors. Oxygen inhalation needs to be performed under the operation of a physician in a regular hospital. Moreover, during oxygen inhalation, prenatal checkups are needed to closely monitor the condition of the fetus and avoid causing any discomfort to the fetus. At the same time, women in late pregnancy need to adjust their mental state and choose the right time to deliver their baby.
