How to prevent spotting during pregnancy

1 Pregnant mothers should quit smoking and drinking.

It is currently known that cigarettes contain more than 1,200 harmful substances, among which tar, tobacco tar, carbon monoxide, etc. are most harmful to the human body. The harm of secondhand smoke is even greater. Husbands should not smoke in the room, and pregnant mothers should also avoid staying in a smoky environment for a long time. Drinking alcohol has a negative impact on the fetus.

2 Pregnant mothers cannot keep animals.

According to medical experts, some small animals such as cats, dogs, and poultry are parasitic on Toxoplasma gondii. Toxoplasma gondii can cause toxoplasmosis, a disease common to humans and animals; if a pregnant mother is infected, there is about a 30-40% chance that the infection will be passed on to the fetus. Toxoplasma infection is divided into latent and dominant genes. Sometimes, although there are no symptoms for pregnant women, Toxoplasma can infect the fetus through the embryo, causing miscarriage, stillbirth, premature birth or various fetal malformations, such as fetal hydrocephalus, brain enlargement, hearing and vision damage, and may also cause infant pneumonia, splenomegaly, jaundice and impaired consciousness. Therefore, pregnant women should avoid pets, and it is best for women not to touch pets during pregnancy.

3. Be careful when sleeping with an electric blanket when the weather is cold.

Experts believe that when people use electric blankets, because there is a capacitor between the body and the electric blanket, even if the electric blanket has a fully qualified resistance, an induced voltage of 40 to 70 volts will be generated and act on the body, and the current intensity is 15 microamperes. Although the current is small, because the electric blanket is close to the crotch of the pregnant mother, there may be potential risks to the developing fetus. The miscarriage rate is very high for pregnant women who use electric blankets in the first three months of pregnancy. The correct way to use it is to heat it for thirty minutes before use, turn off the power switch and unplug the power cord before going to bed.

4 No need for high heels.

Because after a woman becomes pregnant, the muscle tension in her feet is insufficient, and the body's weight is mainly borne by the tendons of the feet. Because the tendon becomes soft, you cannot bear weight for a long time. Especially in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, pregnant women become fat and the center of gravity of the body shifts. They can only stay stable by leaning their back backward. The curvature of the spine continues to increase, the lumbar vertebrae bend backwards, and the intervertebral disc bends forward. If they wear high heels at this time, it is very unsafe. The center of gravity of the body must be further extended forward to maintain stability. In this way, it is easy to fall, and it will make pregnant women more tired, resulting in aggravated pain in the lower limbs and waist. Wearing heelless flat shoes is safe, but because the center of gravity falls on the heel, standing or walking for a long time can easily cause heel pain and back pain. Therefore, it is best to wear low-heeled shoes and wedge-heeled shoes with a heel of 2-3 cm.

5. Use skin care products with caution.

Today's skin care products basically contain the following ingredients: plant extracts, chemical additives, estrogen, these are very irritating things for babies, will affect the normal growth and development of babies, it is best to avoid.

6. Pay attention to anti-electromagnetic radiation.

Pregnant mothers do not need to watch TV dramas for a long time. It is best to prepare anti-radiation clothing for pregnant women. Television, especially color television, emits radiation and microwave radiation when working for a long time, which can also have mutual effects on pregnant mothers and fetuses. When watching TV series, you should generally be 2 meters away from the screen and remember to open the windows and doors. Don't forget to clean your face after watching TV. This is especially important when using a computer.

7 Don't drink tea, eat hawthorn and dried longan.

Tea contains rich caffeine. Drinking tea can increase the heart rate of pregnant women, increase renal blood volume, increase the pressure on the heart and kidneys of pregnant women, which is not conducive to the healthy development of the fetus.

8. Avoid excessive exercise. Taking a walk is a very good choice.
