What are the dangers of getting angry during pregnancy?

When a woman is pregnant, her mood may sometimes become bad and she may suffer from prenatal phobia, but often during pregnancy, the mother's mood will affect the physical and mental health of the fetus. So sometimes you may feel that your child’s temperament and other aspects are very similar to his or her parents. This may be because of the influence of the parents’ behavior on the fetus during pregnancy. So how harmful is it to the baby if the mother gets angry during pregnancy? Let’s see what the experts have to say.

“A towering building starts from the ground,” and a person’s physical and mental health also needs to have a solid foundation in the mother’s womb. From the moment a little life "settles" into the mother's womb, it will depend on the mother until the baby is born. During these 280 days, the mother is required to maintain a good mental state so that the baby's physical and mental health can develop well.

A foreign research institute once invited 100 pregnant women to conduct an observation experiment and found that when the mother is emotionally upset, the fetus's limb movements increase, the number of fetal movements is 3 times more than usual, and can reach 10 times normal. If the fetus is restless for a long time and consumes too much physical energy, it will often be 300 to 500 grams lighter than the average baby at birth. If a pregnant woman becomes emotionally restless within three weeks after an argument with someone, the number of fetal movements during this period may increase by 1 times compared to normal times.

A mother's negative attitude toward pregnancy can also have adverse effects on the fetus. For example, feelings of guilt about illegal behavior and worries about changes in body shape can cause anxiety and long-term emotional tension in pregnant women. In addition to the above-mentioned consequences, some miscarriages and premature births may also be related to this. These phenomena fully demonstrate that there is an inextricable connection between human emotions and health. Therefore, if women are anxious, worried, or upset during pregnancy, it is easy to cause corresponding changes in the body, especially changes in the autonomic nervous system, such as faster and deeper breathing, faster and stronger heartbeat, higher blood pressure, increased blood sugar, and increased blood oxygen content. At the same time, the endocrine system under the control of the central nervous system also changes, especially the adrenal glands secrete various hormones, and the composition of the blood will also change, which increases the chemical substances that are harmful to the nervous system and cardiovascular system. These changes are transmitted to the fetus through the placenta, causing the fetus to respond accordingly and produce various discomforts. Therefore, the frequency and intensity of fetal movements double, and this excessive activity can last throughout the entire fetal period. Because the fetus is restless for a long time and consumes too much physical energy, it will affect his normal physical and mental development, causing an increase in the rate of dystocia. The child will be born thin, like to cry, and not like to sleep. When he grows up, he often has unstable emotions, poor self-control, and may also suffer from hyperactivity and other diseases.

Therefore, the emotions of pregnant women during pregnancy will affect the child's intellectual development, physical development, etc. For the healthy growth of children, mothers should set examples for them during pregnancy, keep a happy mood, reduce emotional fluctuations and mental stress, then the children will be born healthy. This is the first step in eugenics.
