What should I pay attention to when I am more than nine months pregnant?

When a pregnant woman is nine months pregnant, the time of delivery is getting closer and closer. At this time, the pregnant woman will be more excited and nervous, especially for first-time pregnant women. Due to lack of experience, if any problems arise, they will often appear panic-stricken. For pregnant women who are more than nine months pregnant, it is necessary to learn more about childbirth and what to do when dealing with some emergencies.

At 9 months of pregnancy, the fetus is already mature and there is a possibility of premature birth. Therefore, pregnant mothers and their families should make all preparations before and after delivery. Watch for any signs of premature labor. With the help of her family, the pregnant mother should prepare the necessary supplies of food, clothing, housing and transportation for the newborn. For example, baby clothes, hats, socks, diaper bags, milk bottles, small quilts, diapers, etc. Pregnant mothers should prepare pregnancy examination records, household registration books of both husband and wife, medical certificates, and birth permits. Get the phone number and transportation route to the hospital where you'll be giving birth.

In the last two months of pregnancy, pregnant mothers should shorten the time of regular check-ups to once a week. The main checks are the fetal heart rate and whether the mother's blood pressure is normal. B-ultrasound is also required if necessary. Pregnant mothers should pay attention to the signs of premature birth. If you experience abdominal hardness, stomach pain, vaginal bleeding, etc., tell your family immediately and go to the hospital right away. Pregnant women should not travel far in the late pregnancy. Due to the bumpy ride and fatigue of the journey, miscarriage can easily occur. Giving birth on a ship or vehicle is a very dangerous thing. If a pregnant mother is from another place and wants to give birth in her hometown, it is recommended that she go back more than 2 months in advance.

When entering the ninth month of pregnancy, as the delivery is approaching, the pregnant woman's body will generally become heavier, and her movements will become more difficult and clumsy. At this time, expectant mothers should pay more attention and participate in prenatal psychological counseling held in the hospital to eliminate certain fears and tensions and maintain a good mentality, which will be very helpful for a smooth delivery in the future.
