What tests should be done during pregnancy?

Pregnancy is an important stage in a woman's life. It is such a sacred thing to give birth to the next generation, so every family attaches great importance to it. For the health of yourself and your baby, you must carefully do various checkups during pregnancy to ensure that all indicators are within the prescribed range. So what checkups should you do during pregnancy?

Let me first introduce the necessary examination items. Generally, about 50 days after the pregnant woman is confirmed to be pregnant, she should use B-ultrasound to check whether the baby is an intrauterine pregnancy and whether the embryo bud has grown; do a B-ultrasound at 12 weeks to check the baby's heartbeat and basic condition, create a card, and do basic examinations such as hematuria; do a Down syndrome screening at 14-20 weeks, which is very important; do a four-dimensional color ultrasound at 18-24 weeks to rule out fetal malformations and see the baby's appearance, which is very important; do a sugar screening at 24 weeks to see if there is diabetes. If diabetes is suspected, do a glucose tolerance screening directly, which is very important; do a B-ultrasound of the fetus at 30-32 weeks for further malformation screening; starting from 36 weeks, fetal heart monitoring is performed once a week; at 37 weeks, color ultrasound is used to check the size of the fetus, fetal position, and amniotic fluid conditions.

Routine examinations also need to be performed according to the doctor's instructions, such as: routine blood tests, routine urine tests, biochemical tests, electrocardiograms, ultrasounds, fetal heart rate monitoring, etc. Examinations are required at all stages of pregnancy, and specific details should be consulted with an obstetrician.

After pregnancy, the mother's various indicators will continue to change with the length of pregnancy, so it is necessary to do various prenatal examinations on time according to the doctor's instructions at each stage of pregnancy. This is because the data from prenatal examinations is directly related to the health status of the mother and fetus. When any indicators that do not meet the standards are found, timely treatment must be carried out to ensure the health of the mother and baby. Eugenics is something that every modern family must do their best to do. For the health of pregnant mothers and babies, prenatal examinations at various stages are still necessary.
