Pregnancy is a difficult process. During pregnancy, the mother's body will undergo many changes. The longer the pregnancy lasts, the bigger the mother's belly will be. As a pregnant woman's belly gets bigger, motherhood becomes more difficult. Sleeping posture also becomes an issue. Can I sleep lying down during pregnancy? Let’s find out together. Can I sleep on my back during pregnancy? If you are pregnant for more than six months, the enlarged uterus is very likely to compress the inferior vena cava, affecting the blood supply and oxygen production of the fetus. It is generally recommended that pregnant women sleep on their left side as much as possible to improve the blood supply and oxygen production of the fetus. You can change your posture appropriately, but it is best for pregnant women to sleep on their left side. Characteristics of babies in the sixth month of pregnancy The baby's hair, eyebrows and eyelashes are becoming clearer. The body looks even now, but the body fat is still less, the body is still thin, and the skin is light yellow. From this time on, a layer of milky white cream-like substance begins to adhere to the surface of the skin, which is called fetal mass. Placenta is a compound secreted by the sebaceous glands and shed skin epithelial cells, which provides nutrition to the fetus until the mother gives birth. At this moment, the fetus's thick hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes can already be seen, his bones have become strong, his skin is wrinkled and red, and he looks like a little old man. But don't look down on him because he is ugly! Before long, he will become a beautiful baby. His fingernails and toes have also just started to grow, and he is growing very diligently. Pregnancy is a process that allows pregnant mothers to grow, but pregnant mothers need to have an optimistic attitude to accept this process. During this period, they learn not only a lot of pregnancy knowledge, but also a lot of emotional feelings. Pregnant mothers should take good care of themselves during this whole process and stay healthy and happy. |
