For women who want to get pregnant as soon as possible, in order to ensure a normal delivery after pregnancy, they must understand the precautions in the first three months of pregnancy. The above content specifically introduces the precautions in the first three months of pregnancy for many women who want to get pregnant. Therefore, for many women, they can get a detailed understanding through the following content as soon as possible.

First month of pregnancy

◎ The first month of pregnancy refers to the time within four weeks from the first day of the last menstrual period.

◎ Physiological characteristics:

If the pregnant woman's menstrual cycle is 28-30 days, the sperm and egg will combine at the end of the second week of pregnancy. About 4 days after fertilization, the sperm and egg, which have divided into cell clusters, travel along the fallopian tube to the uterus. In the third week, the cell mass sheds its outer membrane in preparation for implantation. By the fourth week, the embryo has been firmly implanted in the uterus. The period from the third trimester of pregnancy to the first month and four weeks of pregnancy is called the embryonic stage. The embryo is 0.5-1 cm long and shaped like a small seahorse.

◎ Notice for pregnant women:

Most pregnant women do not experience any reaction during the first month of pregnancy.

The first month is the period when the neural tube, limbs, and eyes begin to differentiate. Once they encounter harmful substances, the cells of these tissues and organs will stop developing and become incomplete and deformed.

Do not go to theaters, dance halls, shops and other places where people gather, and avoid contact with patients with influenza, rubella, infectious hepatitis, etc. Try not to use medicine. Both viruses and medicines can affect your baby's development.

Stay away from electromagnetic pollution and keep a certain distance when listening to music or watching TV. Try to use computers, microwave ovens, mobile phones, etc. as little as possible. Pregnant women should not sleep with electric blankets when the heating is just turned off, because it can generate electromagnetic fields and is harmful to pregnant women and fetuses.

Avoid drinking strong tea, strong coffee and cola-type drinks. The most ideal drink for pregnant women is boiled water.

When washing clothes, use soap instead of washing powder; when washing dishes, choose detergent that does not contain harmful substances.

You must wash your hands after cutting raw meat, and make sure the meat is cooked thoroughly when cooking or eating hot pot. To prevent Toxoplasma in raw meat from infecting the fetus.

Do not immerse your hands directly in cold water when washing rice or vegetables. The cold stimulation may induce miscarriage. Families without water heaters should buy a few pairs of rubber gloves.

During the first month of pregnancy, the baby does not need much nutrition. However, from now on you must develop good eating habits, not be picky about food, and maintain a balanced nutrition.

Tips:

Continue to supplement folic acid under the guidance of a doctor, which will maximize the protection of the fertilized egg from deformity.

Second month of pregnancy

◎ Physiological characteristics:

During the second month of pregnancy (5-8 weeks), the germ develops into an embryo.

The embryo had a body and a "tail," discernible eyes, and small ridges on the hands and feet that would become fingers and toes. This month is the period of differentiation and formation of most of the fetus's organs, so it is also called the embryonic organ formation period. During the fifth week of pregnancy, the embryo's neural tube begins to form. These neural tubes will later develop into the brain and spine.

Around 7 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus is 2-3 cm long and weighs about 4 grams. It has grown hands and feet, and its eyes, ears, and mouth can be roughly seen. Its face is beginning to resemble a human.

◎ Notice for pregnant women:

After the 5th week, the embryo enters the organ differentiation period and is most susceptible. It is still crucial to avoid viruses, toxic chemicals, and radiation.

If your period is 7 days past due, you should go to the hospital to confirm whether you are pregnant.

Early pregnancy reactions begin from 4-7 weeks of pregnancy, and the timing, symptoms, and severity of the reactions vary from person to person.

A few pregnant women have severe reactions, 80% of them have reactions, and some have no reactions.

Pregnancy reactions generally include nausea, loss of appetite, vomiting on an empty stomach, dizziness and fatigue, and inability to smell fumes or strange smells. These reactions will disappear naturally after three months of pregnancy.

Increase your sleep time by one hour every day and make sure you get enough rest.

Ensure adequate oxygen and take a one-hour walk in green space or shaded trees every day.

It is very important to be in a good mood. Although there is no direct connection between your nervous system and your baby's, there is communication of blood substances and endocrine system, and your emotional changes can cause changes in certain chemicals.

In terms of diet, you should choose light, delicious and easily digestible foods. At this time, eat as much as you can and don't worry too much about whether it is nutritious enough.

Be careful not to be dehydrated so that toxic substances in the body can be excreted through urine in time.

Threatened miscarriage and spontaneous abortion are most likely to occur during this period, so forceful movements should be avoided.

Tips:

The husband’s role is indispensable in overcoming pregnancy reactions. The best way to help your wife overcome pregnancy reactions is to show more concern, care and attention to her and keep her in a good mood.

Third month of pregnancy

◎ Physiological characteristics:

The third month of pregnancy refers to the four weeks starting from the ninth week.

By the tenth week, the embryonic period ends and the fetal period begins. The fingers and toes are now visible, the placenta is beginning to form, and the umbilical cord is gradually growing longer. By the eleventh week, the pregnant woman's uterus is as big as a fist, and if you press around the uterus, you can feel its presence. The fetus's sexual organs are formed at this time.

The fetus' body grows one millimeter every day, and by the end of the third month it will be nine millimeters long.

In the third month, early pregnancy reactions intensify. At the same time, the enlarged uterus presses on the bottom of the bladder, causing frequent urination. Around the twelfth week of pregnancy, the uterus extends beyond the pelvic cavity and enters the abdominal cavity, which reduces the pressure on the bladder and improves the frequent urination phenomenon.

◎ Notice for pregnant women:

This month is still the period when the fetus is most susceptible to malformations. Pregnant mothers should be careful to guard against various viruses and chemical poisons.

Women will not feel back pain, which is often a sign of threatened abortion and should be taken seriously and treated in time.

To ensure adequate sleep, it is best to sleep for one to two hours at noon every day.

Under the influence of large amounts of estrogen in the body, some changes occur in the oral cavity starting from this month, such as gingival congestion, edema, and hypertrophy of gingival papillae, which are very easy to bleed when touched. This is medically called pregnancy gingivitis. Pregnant women should brush their teeth and rinse their mouths carefully morning and evening to prevent bacteria from multiplying in the mouth.
