Does cutting hair affect pregnancy?

Pregnant women should pay attention to their own bodies during pregnancy. They should be cautious about what they can do at other times during the pregnancy process to avoid doing some large movements that may affect the subsequent growth and development of the fetus. So, does it matter if you cut your hair during pregnancy? Let's have a simple understanding of this issue. I hope the following points will be helpful to everyone!

Does pregnancy have any effect on hair cutting?

Let's use scientific methods to say whether pregnant women can cut their hair. Traditionally, they cannot cut their hair because it will affect the mother's physiological condition and cause deformities in the baby. But scientifically speaking, it is not easy, because hair is just a nerve ending and has no effect on the body at all. But why some people want to cut their hair? The reason is that compared with preparing for pregnancy, if you have oily hair, your hair will become oilier during pregnancy; if your hair itself is relatively dry, it will become softer during pregnancy. Therefore, it is recommended that you choose some relatively mild shampoos after pregnancy to reduce the inconvenience caused by greasy hair. If it feels greasy, just cut it off decisively. Otherwise, it will be more painful to stay in confinement. The sooner you cut it off, the sooner it will grow longer, especially during pregnancy.

One of the advantages of short hair over long hair is that it is easier to wash. It may have taken twenty minutes in the past, but short hair can be done in more than ten minutes and dries faster. Because some people suggest not to use or use less hair dryer during pregnancy. From this perspective, short hair doesn't need to be blown dry by a hair dryer for most of the day, and there is no need to worry about whether or not to use a hair dryer. During the confinement period, I washed my hair several times because I live in the south. The first time, someone told me that using a hair dryer was not a good idea, so I didn't blow dry my hair after washing it, and when I went to bed, my hair was still not dry. I fell asleep with wet hair and woke up with a headache the next day. Therefore, at that time, I felt that short hair was better.

What to do if pregnant women have many dreams when sleeping

Pregnant women sometimes experience dreaminess during pregnancy, which can greatly affect their sleep and thus affect the physical and mental health, growth and development of the fetus. So what should pregnant women do if they have many dreams when sleeping?

1. Don’t eat too much at night. Many people must ensure the nutrition of the fetus during pregnancy, so they will eat frequently. Some people will continue to eat when they feel hungry before going to bed, but they find that they can’t fall asleep after eating. This is because eating too much makes the stomach and intestines in an excited state and gradually increases the excitement of the central nervous system, which affects our sleep quality. Therefore, eat moderately at night. If you are really hungry, you can eat some light food in moderation.

2. Take a proper walk, especially in the morning, and breathe in fresh air as much as possible to regulate your mood. In the evening, you can read a book or a newspaper, which can help you improve your sleep state.

3. Wash your feet with warm water before going to bed. When the body temperature changes from hot to cold, it is the time when the body is most likely to feel tired and sleepy. Therefore, soaking your feet in milk water every night can help improve sleep and reduce the time it takes to fall asleep.

1. Increase the intake of calcium-rich foods, dairy products, and dark green vegetables and fruits.

2. Massage the soles of your feet before sleeping, or raise your feet before sleeping. You don't need to wear high heels when walking in broad daylight, and you don't need to stand for too long to avoid excessive fatigue of your thigh muscles.

3. For obvious leg cramps, hold the backrest tightly as a support, stand up straight so that the muscles on the back of the leg can be flexed and extended, the hip bones can be slightly forward and bent, the legs can be straightened, and the breaths can be taken evenly and deeply. You can also lean against the wall with your feet on the wooden floor, your arms straight and slightly extended forward, and your palms against the wall.
