Precautions for pregnancy with uterine scar

Is it possible to get pregnant with a scarred uterus? For women who had a caesarean section for their first child, getting pregnant again is a big challenge. Because cesarean section leaves a scar on the uterus, if you don't pay attention during pregnancy, it is easy to cause various accidents, which will affect the safety of pregnant women and fetuses. Therefore, pregnant women with uterine scars should pay special attention to daily medical care during pregnancy to prevent accidents.

Women with uterine scars can get pregnant, although there may be certain risks during pregnancy. However, as long as the uterus recovers well and the doctor diagnoses that they meet the conditions for pregnancy again, they can consider the preparation period for pregnancy. It should be noted that due to the presence of uterine scars, special attention should be paid to medical care during pregnancy to avoid accidents.

Six things to note when getting pregnant with a scarred uterus:

1. Pay attention to the interval between pregnancies: If women with uterine scars are planning to get pregnant again, they should avoid having too short an interval between two pregnancies. It is recommended that they get pregnant 2-3 years after the last pregnancy. Since there will be scars on the uterus after cesarean section, if the interval between pregnancies is too short and the uterus has not recovered, internal bleeding is very likely to occur during pregnancy.

2. Check thoroughly before pregnancy: Women with uterine scars who are planning to become pregnant should go to the hospital to check the healing of the scar. If the scar heals well, they can become pregnant again. In addition, other pre-pregnancy physical examinations should be done to understand the body's physical condition and provide resource advantages for the growth and development of the fetus.

3. Avoid physical fatigue: Pregnant women with uterine scars are at risk of uterine scar rupture during pregnancy, so they should pay more attention in the second and third trimesters to avoid excessive physical fatigue. In addition, you should avoid strenuous physical labor in order to prevent the scar from cracking due to abdominal stress.

4. Pay attention to weight control: Although pregnant women with uterine scars should pay more attention to rest, they should also exercise moderately within the conditions permitted by their physical condition to avoid rapid weight gain. Pregnant women can choose to take a walk. During the entire pregnancy, you must ensure adequate nutrition, but also avoid excessive intake of high-sugar, high-calorie, and high-fat foods to prevent excessive obesity.

5. Regular prenatal check-ups: When women with uterine scars become pregnant again, they should pay attention to doing prenatal check-ups and pay close attention to the growth and development of the fetus. In addition, during pregnancy, no matter what the cause of abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital for treatment immediately to avoid accidents.

6. Maintain a happy mood: Women with uterine scars should pay attention to relaxing during pregnancy and avoid being nervous to avoid affecting the fetus. Because a positive attitude is not only conducive to the normal growth and development of the fetus, but also beneficial to one's own health, it is very important to maintain a positive attitude during pregnancy.

In order to ensure the health of the fetus and themselves, pregnant women with uterine scars should pay more attention to rest during pregnancy to ensure adequate sleep and avoid exerting abdominal force to prevent uterine rupture. In addition, pregnant women should also relax their stress appropriately, pay attention to the changes in the fetus on a regular basis, especially pay attention to the fetal movements in the late pregnancy, and seek medical attention immediately if any abnormalities are found.
