Can pregnant women smell incense burning at home?

When a pregnant mother knows that she is pregnant, she will be even happier if there are elderly people at home. The elderly can talk about these common problems during pregnancy based on their own work experience. However, some of them are not scientifically proven. So, can pregnant women smell the incense at home?

It is best for pregnant women not to smell the incense at home. The smoke emitted by burning incense is very pungent, and burning it also produces tiny particles, which can enter the body through the pregnant woman's inhalation and are detrimental to the growth and development of the fetus. There are also some toxic substances in the incense, which will seriously affect the physical and mental health of the fetus, cause fetal intrauterine hypoxia, affect the growth and development of the fetus's head, and may cause the baby to become mentally retarded. Women should reduce adverse stimulation during pregnancy. If there are incense, they can go outdoors to breathe fresh air. If there are no fireworks, they can use a home oxygen concentrator to supply oxygen.

These taboos during pregnancy really need to be paid attention to.

1. During the first three months of pregnancy, it is strictly forbidden to say

The old people think that if you tell others about your pregnancy before the third month, it will make the fetal spirit unhappy, which is not good for the fetus. In fact, before the third month of pregnancy, the pregnant woman's adaptation to the test tube embryo is still in a stable period, and it is inevitable that her mood will fluctuate greatly in the early stages of pregnancy. The early stages of pregnancy are a critical time period that determines whether or not miscarriage will occur.

2. Don’t let others tap your shoulders

Sometimes we would be startled if someone suddenly patted us on the shoulder. What's more, there is an acupuncture point on the shoulder of pregnant women called "Jianjing Point". If this acupoint is suddenly stimulated, it is easy to cause uterine contractions, and pregnant women are easily frightened.

3. No need to go to hot springs or saunas

In the early stages of pregnancy, the sperm and egg combination is very sensitive to cold. At this time, if the expectant mother is not careful and likes to take a hot bath, hot spring or even a sauna, this can easily affect the fetus. The possibility of causing miscarriage is very high.

Therefore, in some cases, the work experience of the elderly cannot be said to be traditional concepts. In fact, some taboos during pregnancy should be kept in mind.
