Pre-pregnancy check-up required for second child

Regarding the topic of doing prenatal check-ups for the second child, different parents will have different ideas. Some think it is necessary, after all, it can reduce some risks during pregnancy; some think it is unnecessary because they have already given birth to one child. So, is it necessary to have a pre-pregnancy physical examination before having a second child? This issue will be explained in detail below.

First of all, I want to make it clear to everyone that it is very necessary to do a pre-pregnancy physical examination before having a second child. Pre-pregnancy physical examination can effectively check the body of the second child mother, and can also increase the chance of creating a healthy baby. Therefore, it is necessary to do a pre-pregnancy physical examination for the second child. Its main functions are as follows:

1. Clarify whether pregnant mothers can have a second child: After giving birth, many mothers' bodies will undergo certain changes, and it takes a certain amount of time for the body to adjust. If you want to have a second child, a prenatal check-up can clearly show whether the mother's body has recovered and whether she meets the conditions for having a second child.

2. Whether the mother suffers from a disease that is not suitable for pregnancy: After giving birth to the first child, there is no doubt that some mothers will develop some physical diseases for some reasons. A pre-pregnancy physical examination for the second child can check whether the mother has any disease that is not suitable for pregnancy, which can avoid the negative impact of pregnancy on the mother. If there is a disease that is not suitable for pregnancy, it is best to cure it before getting pregnant.

The best time to have a prenatal checkup for a second child is 3-6 months before pregnancy. In addition, because the items that women need to check are relatively special and some results will be affected by menstruation, it is recommended to do it within 3-7 days after the menstrual period ends, so that the test results will be more accurate. In addition, mothers who are preparing to have a second child should be reminded that they must pay attention to nutritional supplements during pregnancy preparation and need to take folic acid tablets every day. Only by making adequate preparations and supplementing adequate nutrients can they have a better pregnancy and give birth to healthy children.
