Can I do an ultrasound before I get pregnant?

In order to have a healthy and smart child, couples often prepare for pregnancy scientifically, which takes about three months to six months. Of course, the specific time depends on their physical conditions. At this time, men should not smoke or drink, and women should avoid wearing makeup as much as possible. But can I do an ultrasound before getting pregnant? B-ultrasound is a type of ultrasonic examination, which is harmful to the body and not conducive to pregnancy preparation, so it should be avoided as much as possible.

Can I do ultrasound in the first three months of pregnancy?

Generally speaking, in most organs in the human body, damage to a small number of cells will not cause harm. However, for embryos and fetuses in a sensitive period of development, even damaging a few cells is not allowed. Foreign researchers have found that when pregnant women undergo ultrasound examinations, the activity of the fetus in the uterus increases compared to usual.

In recent years, due to the increase in the types of ultrasonic diagnostic instruments, high power and frequency, and the fact that ultrasound applications have become earlier and more frequent, they have been extended especially to monitoring the development of eggs and embryos. During the early embryonic stage of organ formation, the fetus is very sensitive to physical and chemical stimulation, so the use of ultrasound diagnosis in early pregnancy will cause adverse reactions to the fetus.

Therefore, women in the first three months of pregnancy should use ultrasound with caution and try not to do it if it is not necessary. When it is really necessary, the principle of minimum dose should be strictly adhered to, the intensity of ultrasound should be reduced as much as possible, and the examination time should be shortened.

An ultrasound examination should be done in the early stages of pregnancy when the following situations occur: there is a threat of miscarriage and vaginal bleeding lasts for a long time, it is necessary to understand whether the embryo is alive and whether it is necessary to continue to preserve the fetus. The possibility of hydatidiform mole also needs to be ruled out. If lower abdominal pain occurs, extrauterine pregnancy or pregnancy with a tumor must be ruled out. For pregnant women with irregular menstruation, it is necessary to understand the embryonic development, estimate the gestational age, and rule out multiple births.

What should pregnant women pay attention to in the first three months?

1. Take folic acid regularly for the first three months. The first three months are the development period of the child's nervous system. Pregnant mothers must insist on taking folic acid in the first three months to prevent the child from suffering from nervous system malformations.

2. If there is abnormal secretion, go to the hospital immediately for a blood test. If there is any abnormality in the secretion, go to the hospital immediately to check the progesterone level. If the progesterone level is low, supplement it with progesterone immediately, otherwise miscarriage may easily occur.

3. If morning sickness is severe, eat some plums and cucumbers. If one of my two babies hardly vomited, but the other one vomited a little more severely, I remember that I would feel a little nauseous after eating in the first three months. I ate a lot of plums and felt very comfortable after eating cucumbers. If I vomited severely, I could eat cucumbers as a meal. I really think cucumbers are the patron saint of pregnant women.

4. Never let yourself be frightened. This is very important. Don't go to crowded and noisy places. Be careful of children fighting at the school gate. One of Guo Ma's classmates had a miscarriage because she watched a horror movie three months ago. You must protect your baby well in the first three months because it is not stable yet.

5. Go to the hospital to get a pregnancy stamp and wear it on yourself. Pregnant women in the first three months of pregnancy do not look pregnant, and many people do not know that there is a pregnant woman next to them. Therefore, they will not pay much attention to smoking or other crowded places. Pregnant women can go to the hospital to get a pregnant stamp and wear it on their clothes. When others see it, they will pay more attention and some people will give up their seats for them when riding in a car.
